Hi there! 🙂 I’m trying to use the

version

value of the

package.json

file in my lambda script. Therefore, as described in the documentation, I edited the

index.js

file in the

stacks

directory, to contain this bit of code:

export default function main(app) {
  // Set default runtime for all functions
  app.setDefaultFunctionProps((stack) => ({
    runtime: "nodejs12.x",
    environment: {
      SCRIPT_VERSION: process.env.npm_package_version,
      CALENDAR_ID: ssm.StringParameter.valueForStringParameter(stack, "/CALENDAR_ID"),
....

SCRIPT_VERSION

should now contain the value of

version

. This works fine while developping locally, but once deployed, the value is always

undefined

. Is the

package.json

file ignored maybe? 🙏

Hey @Jakob Fix, where does the

npm_package_version

environment variable come from?

Hi @Frank, I was looking at this here: https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v8/using-npm/scripts#packagejson-vars

Got it! Is the project deployed via SEED?

Hi Frank, sorry for the delay! I’m using

npx sst deploy --stage prod

.

Are you running that locally? Can you try running

npm run deploy -- --stage prod

I’ll give that a try, thanks!
