Cannot debug serverless application in Visual Stud

问题:

I have tried to debug serverless application developed using serverless framework in VS code. I have followed this article.

But when I trying to debug the code I'm getting an error from VS code as below.

Cannot launch program 'g:\Projects\Serverless1\node_modules.bin\sls'; setting the 'outDir or outFiles' attribute might help.

sls command file already exists in the folder and following are the launch.json file settings

"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [

    {
        "type": "node",
        "request": "launch",
        "protocol": "inspector",
        "name": "run hello function",
        "program": "${workspaceRoot}\\node_modules\\.bin\\sls",
        "args": [
            "invoke",
            "local",
            "-f",
            "hello",
            "--data",
            "{}"
        ]

    }
]

Please help me to fix this issue.

I attempted to follow the same article, and experienced the same error. Adding outFiles didn't help, although it did change my error message to:

Cannot launch program 'd:\<path>\node_modules\.bin\sls' because corresponding JavaScript cannot be found.

I can't explain why VSCode has a problem with the executable in node_modules/.bin, but if I point at node_modules/serverless/bin instead, things work as expected:

"program": "${workspaceFolder}\\node_modules\\serverless\\bin\\serverless",

Here is my full working configuration, where my test event JSON exists in sample-event.json in the project root:

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "type": "node",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Debug Lambda",
            "program": "${workspaceFolder}/node_modules/serverless/bin/serverless",
            "args": [
                "invoke",
                "local",
                "-f",
                "<function-name>",
                "--data",
                "{}" // You can use this argument to pass data to the function to help with the debug
            ]
        }
    ]
}

To get debugging to work with TypeScript I needed to add outFiles set to the folder where my compiled code goes.

"outFiles": [
    "${workspaceRoot}/dist/**/*.js"
]

I haven't tried to debug straight JS but I would assume it's something like this.

"outFiles": [
    "${workspaceRoot}/**/*.js"
]

None of the solutions worked for me so here is my modification as a resource. Also, multiple coworkers were able to attack just by flipping auto-attach to on and using the invoke local keywords.

Below is a snippet featuring the launch.json that eventually worked for me. /w comments for clarity where my function is named Processor.

--function or -f The name of the function in your service that you want to invoke locally.

--path or -p The path to a json file holding input data to be passed to the invoked function as the event. This path is relative to the root directory of the service.

--stage or -s The stage in your service you want to invoke your function in.
