02/28/2021, 12:31 AMI don't know if this is expected behavior, but when I set environment variables in defaultFunctionProps I don't get them
in functions I set with the "function" option. Example:

02/28/2021, 12:31 AM_const_ api = new sst.Api(this, 'Api', {defaultFunctionProps: {srcPath: 'src/',environment: {SOMETHING: props.something,},},routes: {'POST /some-function': {function: {handler: 'someFunction.handler',}},'POST /some-other-function': 'someOtherFunction.handler',}}Andreas
02/28/2021, 12:32 AMIt looks like someOtherFunction is able to access the SOMETHING env variable, but not someFunction.

This might be expected behavior, let me check with @Frank.

both functions should be able to access the

In your case, both functions (someFunction and someOtherFunction) will inherit

@Andreas can you send me the CloudFormation template generated for this stack? You can find it under
.build/cdk.out/xxxx.template.jsa
Andreas
02/28/2021, 1:10 PMOh, I also see that I set the environment in someFunction. Maybe that overrides the environment set in defaultFunctionProps?

Yeah.. the environment in the route replaces the environment in defaultFunctionProps, not merged.

I opened an issue here to track if more people find this behavior confusing - https://github.com/serverless-stack/serverless-stack/issues/162

A solution here would be to merge route environment and default environment.

03/01/2021, 10:11 AMAh, ok :) Well, I think it makes sense to merge them. That way, you could have global variables, and it's easy to set specific variables for a route.

Yeah.. that makes a lot of sense actually.

Btw, do you have other resources in the Stack, like Topic or Queue? What I’m trying to get to is that does it make sense to have global variables for all Lambda functions in a stack?

Andreas
03/01/2021, 7:24 PMNo, I have a dedicated stack for the api. No other resources there.
