How to develop/test locally

[ziggy6792]

Hi

Thanks so much for sharing this. I followed your Readme and got it working incredibly easily.

I now want to adapt this to connect to LinkedIn. I see maybe someone tired here already but I think this is unfinished, I couldn't get it to work anyway.

My question is how do you locally develop this. Because at the moment I am deploying to lambda every time I want to check my changes and it is a very slow way of working.

Is there a way I can replicate what cognito is doing on my local machine so I can test using the local node server (running with npm run start).

Thanks a lot,

Hey

FYI I solved this by moving this off SAM to sst. I feel the development experience is much nicer as you don't have to deploy to AWS each time to test your changes. I'm still curious if you found another/better way to locally develop/test this though.

Anyway you can check out my solution if you like in this repository (I am integrating with LinkedIn)

Thanks a lot for sharing this, you saved me a lot of time vs doing it all myself.

You’re so welcome! Sorry I didn’t see this issue earlier- sounds like you’re sorted, but the way I did local testing is by using the express server and ngrok. I can expand on this solution if it’s useful (I don’t remember if it’s in the readme).

Hey @TimothyJones

Yes I am sorted.
Damn you are right. You did mention ngrok in your Readme but I guess my brain skipped that as I never used it before. After you mentioned it again, with a quick google I see now how I can use ngrok with your solution.
