vite-plugin-aws-lambda

library1.0.4jsnpmunverified

Vite plugin that simplifies building AWS Lambda functions by configuring Vite for library mode: defaults output to ES modules with .mjs extension, externalizes all Node.js built-in modules, and optionally zips the output directory into a Lambda-ready deployment package. Current version 1.0.4 requires Vite >=5.2.7. Key differentiators: zero-config setup for Vite users, handles common Lambda packaging tasks (externalization, zip) automatically, and ships TypeScript types. Release cadence appears low; no major breaking changes documented yet.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default exported plugin function

✓ import lambda from 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda';

✗ import { lambda } from 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda';

Default export only; no named export 'lambda' exists.

default (CommonJS)

✓ const lambda = require('vite-plugin-aws-lambda').default;

✗ const lambda = require('vite-plugin-aws-lambda');

CommonJS usage requires .default due to ESM/CJS interop.

TypeScript usage

✓ import lambda from 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda';

✗ import lambda from 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda/dist/index.js';

Types are included; import from package root.

Minimal Vite config integrating the plugin with a library entry for AWS Lambda deployment.

// vite.config.ts import { defineConfig } from 'vite'; import lambda from 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda'; export default defineConfig({ plugins: [lambda({ outFilename: 'my-function.zip', quiet: false, })], build: { lib: { entry: 'src/lambda.ts', }, }, });

Debug

Known issues

gotchaPlugin must be placed last in the plugins array to avoid issues with other plugins modifying build config.

fix

Ensure lambda() is the last item in the plugins array.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaRelative paths in outFilename are resolved from config.outDir, not config.root.

fix

Use absolute or outDir-relative paths for outFilename.

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedIf using older Vite <5.2.7, the plugin will not work due to peer dependency requirement.

fix

Upgrade Vite to >=5.2.7 or use an older version of the plugin (if available).

affects: <1.0.0

breakingNo breaking changes documented yet; future versions may change default zip behavior.

fix

Review changelog before upgrading.

affects: =1.0.4

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: ""vite-plugin-aws-lambda"" transforms are not supported.

Using the plugin without specifying a library entry in build.lib.

fix

Set build.lib.entry in your Vite config.

TypeError: lambda is not a function

Named import instead of default import: import { lambda } from 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda'.

fix

Use default import: import lambda from 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda'.

Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'vite-plugin-aws-lambda'

Missing dependency or incorrect package name.

fix

Run npm install vite-plugin-aws-lambda --save-dev.
