Testing lambda locally

Use Serverless Offline.

# Start local lambda by using sls offline command
sls offline start -r ap-southeast-1 --stage test

# Test with curl
curl -X POST http://localhost:3000/test/graphql/hello --data '{"query": "{hello}"}'

Playground is available.

Go to http://localhost:3000/test/graphql. You may need to change the actual query url within the query tab to http://localhost:3000/test/graphql/hello

apollo-server-lambda uses apollo-server under the hood. Therefore, the logic should work when it is replaced ith apollo-server. We can run the application without spinning up a local lambda.

yarn dev-server
