Configuring

There are two ways to configure the plugin, via a JSON file or via serverless.yml. There are two supported methods for configuring the endpoints, globally via the "host" property, or individually. These properties may be mixed, allowing for global override support while also override specific endpoints.

A "host" or individual endpoints must be configured or this plugin will be deactivated.

Configuring endpoints via serverless.yml

service: myService

plugins:
  - localstack-serverless

custom:
  localstack:
    host: http://localhost
    endpoints:
      S3: http://localhost:4572
      DynamoDB: http://localhost:4570
      CloudFormation: http://localhost:4581

Configuring endpoints via JSON

service: myService

plugins:
