Hello, I have built a lamba function. It works locally. It has to import a json. When I deploy it with the same code to bitbucket, and build the site, when I call the function and go to the functions tab on netlify. it says file not found. Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open ‘/var/tas…

someone please help me, I’ve been stuck on this for days, almost a week. I just want to use a JSON in my lambda function. Do I need to now set up a data base and call that? Or can I just store it in a file next to my lambda function?

hmm, i am not a functions expert, but have you tried downloading your site to make sure what you think should be there is actually there? [image] Can I download my website? Support Hi, @jojo . If you are logged into Netlify, you can download the deployed files here: The…

Thanks! I downloaded the site, however, this is only the front-end. None of the lambda functions get downloaded. Do you know how I would do this? Im still stuck on this

Hi, @chrisleeharris . You are correct that the functions are not available in the deployment zip file. It sounds like the require JSON file isn’t being bundled into the function archive so isn’t available post deployment. Here is an example community topic where someone else is asking something sim…

@luke Thanks! ive read through it all, but what are the actual commands I would use to zip this? Some places I see using netlify deploy, but does then I read you need to zip it and ship it before. What are the actual real steps for this? I dont really see anything on that

I got my first JSON to load, but now I am trying to get an id file to load next to it, ugh, the file is literally sitting next to it I have functions for this, but NOOOOOOO, lambda functions dont allow you to import files without a bunch of mumbo jumbo. How do you use zip-it-and-ship it I havent fo…

hi there, i am wondering if this thread is helpful? [image] Using zipped binaries - How to actually use them? Support This is My Repo if you want to see the code. Netlify Built project here open netowrk tab to see 502 error I am trying to get a headless chrome browser t…

Hi there. @marcus I am trying your example GitHub - mraerino/netlify-functions-readfile but i just got this error “error decoding lambda response: error decoding lambda response: json: cannot unmarshal object into Go struct field .body of type string” when running the function. Thanks for your help…

Sorry to hear that! I just opened a PR to fix that if you wanna take a look and try this code instead: Use __dirname instead of process.env.LAMBDA_TASK_ROOT by kaganjd · Pull Request #1 · mraerino/netlify-functions-readfile · GitHub
