Setting up your development environment

We use direnv and nvm to automatically load the correct version of Node, NPM and Serverless Framework into the shell.

nvm

Use the install script for Node Version Manager then run the following command in your terminal

npm install -g avn avn-nvm && avn setup

direnv

OSX users can install direnv using Homebrew

brew install direnv

Add the following line to your .bash_profile

eval "$(direnv hook bash)"

or if you use zsh enter this to your .zshrc

eval "$(direnv hook zsh)"

Enabling direnv

Once the above are installed, navigate to the project root and the following to install npm modules (including serverless) and run the environment loader

npm install && direnv allow .

Create your .env file(s)

You need to create a .env-dev-deploy file to deploy the project to your environment

AWS_PROFILE=your_dev_profile
AWS_REGION=us-east-1

If you want to load more environment variables create more .env-xx files to load variables.
