Serverless Stack

I started doing the latter as I needed it for my system: <https://github.com/ironbay/serverless-stack/commit/7c4403b69973caca3f74b1d6f747e70205066635#diff-afd94e9d7ffa6f7ab02a27f27d63caf28708940b7428b7196d7c6e4f3ba5fffdR31|https://github.com/ironbay/serverless-stack/commit/7c4403b69973caca3f74b1d6f747e70205066635#diff-afd94e9d7ffa6f7ab02a2[…]7428b7196d7c6e4f3ba5fffdR31>

Hey <@U01MV4U2EV9> Looking at the fork, I see you are excluding the `nodeModules` . Are you intending to <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/aws-lambda-nodejs-readme.html#externals|exclude them from the bundle> or to <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/aws-lambda-nodejs-readme.html#install-modules|include them in the node_modules folder>?

<https://github.com/ironbay/serverless-stack/commit/7c4403b69973caca3f74b1d6f747e70205066635#diff-afd94e9d7ffa6f7ab02a27f27d63caf28708940b7428b7196d7c6e4f3ba5fffdR56|https://github.com/ironbay/serverless-stack/commit/7c4403b69973caca3f74b1d6f747e70205066635#diff-afd94e9d7ffa6f7ab02a2[…]7428b7196d7c6e4f3ba5fffdR56>

My intent was to do both but I didn't implement the install step.  I probably should have called this `externalModules` instead of `nodeModules`

yeah I see. do you just need `externalModules` for now?

Yeah but I'm using the commandHooks.afterBundling in my stack to copy over some additional files from my local node_modules

So `externalModules` + `commandHooks` would solve everything for me

yeah for that.. i’m thinking of putting in a copyFiles option for that

```
        commandHooks: {
          afterBundling(_input, output) {
            execSync(`cp -a prisma ${output}`)
          },
        },```

maybe something along the line of
```copyFiles: {
  from: 'node_modules/.prisma',
  to: output
}```

yeah that should work - maybe as an array for multiple files

Ah you know what, the complexity I had was making sure intermediate paths were created

so copy from `node_modules/@prisma/client` to `output/node_modules/@prisma`

That should create any paths that don't exist ideally

ah i see.. you mean the parent directory might not existed right?

I think it's really just calling `mkdir -p` on the target directory

<@U01MV4U2EV9> Just released <https://github.com/serverless-stack/serverless-stack/releases/tag/v0.9.17|v0.9.17> with a couple of bundling options. Here’s an example <https://docs.serverless-stack.com/constructs/Function#configuring-bundling>
