Loopback 4 example - convert lamdba-wrapper.js to Typescript equivalent. about serverless-loopback HOT 5 OPEN

Hi @awongCM, happy to hear you found the tutorial useful!

To the best of my recollection, the reason for JS rather than TS was that LB4 was added as a fix and I did not spend the time to look into the TS code as I was unfamiliar with TypeScript :-)

If you feel comfortable, please go ahead and create a PR for this change.

Or if you prefer, I can do the PR with the code provided.

from serverless-loopback.

@awongCM this brings some memories.

I vaguely recall getting into some TypeScript issues that I did not know how to solve and wanted to add the lb4 sample.

So I guess these might have been it :-D

I am not sure I can help you with the TypeScript errors, but I will ask you all the same. How can I help?

Hi @marcelobern

Ah. That makes sense!

Thank you for the candid reply. I certainly enjoy the tutorial - without a doubt! I have been working on my own pet serverless projects on my profile, and I've been recommended by my colleague how great the loopback framework is for building enterprise-level microservices due to its strong DDD philosophy.

Thus it had me pondering how to incorporate loopback's microservices architecture into the serverless world until I googled "loopback serverless" which lead me to your GitHub repo as the first search result page.. ;)

I'm more than happy to contribute. 👍

Let me create one and get back to on the PR submitted.

I create my local PR; did the above code to replace .js counterpart file.

But when I tried to run presls-deploy, I ran into the following:

I'm getting lot of Typescript compilation errors... 😕

Interesting.

Odd thing is that I never run into any problems when cloning the loopback4 examples as a separate project; followed the tutorial; convert the main lambda wrapper to Typescript.

It works fine there after.

Perhaps there's some config settings from either tsconfig.json or similar that's not liking here...
