Hey, if you add some default env vars in the main method in index.ts file can you reference them in the stack files somehow? e.g.

/stacks/index.ts

app.setDefaultFunctionProps({
    runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_14_X,
    environment: {
      SSM_PREFIX: `/${ssmStage}/`,
      SSM_SHARED_PREFIX: `/${ssmStage}/shared/`,
    },
  });

Looking to access the

SSM_PREFIX

in stack definitions, or should I be just passing them in via props?

I will let someone more experienced with SST answer this for sure as maybe this is possible, but I am like 99% confident you wont be able to get nice TS completion with that. The functions seem to be disconnected from

defaultFunctionProps

so I am guessing even if you could get them you would end up in the

any

bucket or typing them again anyway 😕

yeah that was my thought too, ive created some helper functions instead to get the values. Thanks @Ross Gerbasi

Yeah SST is magic, but sometimes just got to stick to the basics 🙂

Hi i think in your stack you can use environment. environment: { TABLE_NAME: props.table.tableName }, then in a lambda you can use export const main = handler(async (event) => { const params = { TableName: process.env.TABLE_NAME, hope this helps
