I need help structuring the stacks. I am using go for lamda functions Following this https://serverless-stack.com/chapters/review-our-app-architecture.html article I created StorageStack to create DynamoDb table and S3 bucket. Now I want to use the table in my functions and for doing that I need to pass table name ( https://serverless-stack.com/examples/how-to-use-dynamodb-in-your-serverless-app.html ) how to I get access to the table defined in StorageStack in ApiStack ? Should I move table instantiation to ApiStack itself ?

hey so we're in the process of migrating all our examples to 1.0
but check this out, it documents generally ho wyou share resources across stacks: https://docs.serverless-stack.com/constructs/Stack#sharing-resources-between-stacks

Thanks
@thdxr https://serverless-stack.com/examples/how-to-create-a-rest-api-in-golang-with-serverless.html For every function we have package as main and a main function. This is causing an error
t
with go each function needs to be in its own folder
we should maybe make that more clear in our starter

@Shubham Sinha have you tried to make one main function and in it just pass them to wherever required

with regards to the initial question, I'm doing something like this for multiple tables:
Copy code
export const StorageStack = ({ stack }) => {

   const bucket = new Bucket(stack, "Uploads", {
      // bucket config
   });

   const tables = {
      organisations: new Table(stack, "Organisations", {
         // table config
      }),
      participations: new Table(stack, "Participations", {
         // table config
      }),
      // more tables
   };

   // Collect table names to later add them to process environment for lambda functions
   const tableNames = Object.keys(tables).reduce((tableNames, key) => ({
      ...tableNames,
      ["TABLE_NAME_" + key.toUpperCase()]: tables[key].tableName,
   }), {});

   return { bucket, tables, tableNames };
}
and then in api stack:
Copy code
export function ApiStack({ stack, app }) {
   const { bucket, tables, tableNames } = use(StorageStack);

   const api = new Api(stack, "api", {
      defaults: {
         function: {
            environment: {
               ...tableNames,
            },
         },
      },
and then in lambda I can use table names like this:
Copy code
process.env.TABLE_NAME_PARTICIPATIONS
