#AWS-Chatbot

##Getting Started

1) Get yourself serverless from npm

npm install -g serverless@v0.5.5

2) Clone this repo

git clone git@github.com:godd9170/aws-chatbot.git

3) install the modules

npm install i

4) Initialize the project (see docs)

serverless project init

Environment Variables

To ensure that no credentials are actually stored in this repo, we leverage the _meta folder that's created when you install this serverless project.

Within _meta > variables > s-variables-common.json ensure the json looks like this:

{
  "project": "aws-chatbot",
}

If you're creating a new function, and you'd like access to those credentials in it, make sure you include the SFDC environment variables in the s-function.json:

"environment": {
    "SERVERLESS_PROJECT": "${project}",
    "SERVERLESS_STAGE": "${stage}",
    "SERVERLESS_REGION": "${region}"
  }
