serverless-step-functions-local

Run AWS step functions offline with Serverless!

This is a plugin for the Serverless Framework. It uses stepfunctions-localhost to emulate step functions with AWS' provided tool for local development.

Requirements

• serverless >= v2.32.0
• The serverless-offline plugin
• The serverless-offline-lambda plugin
• The serverless-step-functions plugin
• Java Runtime Engine (JRE) version 6.x or newer

Install

npm install serverless-step-functions-local -D

Getting Started

You'll need to add this plugin to your serverless.yml. The plugins section should look something like this when you're done:

plugins:
  ...
  - serverless-step-functions
  - serverless-step-functions-local
  - serverless-offline-lambda
  - serverless-offline
  ...

Then, add a new section to config with accountId and region parameters:

custom:
  stepFunctionsLocal:
    accountId: 101010101010
    region: us-east-1

Although not neccessary, it's strongly recomended to add the folder with the downloaded step function executables to .gitignore. By default, this path is ./.step-functions-local.

The plugin binds to port 8083, this cannot be changed.

It also adds an environment variable for each created state machine that contains the ARN for it. These variables are prefixed by OFFLINE_STEP_FUNCTIONS_ARN_, so the ARN of a state machine named 'WaitMachine', for example could be fetched by reading OFFLINE_STEP_FUNCTIONS_ARN_WaitMachine.

Options

(These go under custom.stepFunctionsLocal.)

• accountId (required) your AWS account ID
• region (required) your AWS region
• lambdaEndpoint (defaults to http://localhost:4000) the endpoint for the lambda service
• path (defaults to ./.step-functions-local) the path to store the downloaded step function executables
• TaskResourceMapping allows for Resource ARNs to be configured differently for local development
• eventBridgeEvents allows sending EventBridge events on execution status changes
  • enabled (bool) enabled or disable this feature. Disabled by default.
  • endpoint Endpoint for sending events to eg. for serverless-offline-aws-eventbridge would be http://localhost:4010
