📢 Update In 0.26.0, we added an

--increase-timeout

flag for

sst start

. It will extend your Lambda function timeout to 15 minutes when running inside

sst start

. That should give you plenty time to debug with breakpoints (👋VSCoders!) Make sure you grab the latest launch.json config from here - https://docs.serverless-stack.com/debugging-with-vscode#launch-configurations

Is this for API Gateway requests too?

No, I’m going to play around with ways to get around APIGs 30s limit 🤔 If u have a

Queue

, this flag will also extend its visibility timeout. (Queue’s visibility timeout has to be longer than its consumer Lambda’s function timeout)

Ok, cool, thanks for the clarification

More details on what the flag does https://docs.serverless-stack.com/packages/cli#options

So the API times out but you can still debug the Lambda in VS Code for 15mins I think.

If so, even that would be amazing

Yeah

I'm pleased to say, that's exactly what happens. Game changer for debugging

haha that’s awesome!
