Serverless command "offline" not found about serverless HOT 7 OPEN

same problem here. I upgraded to serveless v4. give it a try if you can

@NicoHinderling Have you tried using the new serverless dev command for local development? If you did, I'm curious to know what serverless-offline solves that dev mode doesn't 🤔 (other than actually being offline with no internet connection)

I just tried it out and I agree that serverless dev does seem like it would speed up iterative development when using our "dev" stage, but:

1. Right now I share our dev environment with several other engineers, so I don't want to use dev directly all the time. Being able to use it offline is really convenient for this.

2. I actually dealt with an outage recently where I control + C'd mid deploy to our biggest service's dev environment and it totally broke our cloudformation :( I had to delete everything and re-create it from the ground up, so particularly for that service, I'd probably never use serverless dev altogether given:

   a. what serverless dev does under the hood
   b. how fragile that service apparently is

@austencollins would maintenance of https://github.com/dherault/serverless-offline ever be taken over or at least have direct support by the serverless company itself?

I've finally completed my experimental migration project (serverless3 -> 4 & npm -> pnpm) and the only two blocking things left are:

1. local handlers not working for serverless4 (#12621) 🙏
2. serverless-offline not working for serverless4 (dherault/serverless-offline#1800)

Seems like they are looking for maintainers and I imagine that supporting offline functionality is pretty important for other developers too

@NicoHinderling Thanks for that feedback! That's really helpful.

You could also do sls dev --stage local or sls dev --stage nico, wouldn't that solve both issues?

these still involve deploying, which also increases our number of resources for that service. We've been hitting the limit recently, but I agree that could be a potential alternative for others

Hmm yeah, that is a good point 🤔
