Can't get sequelize.js to work with serverless-bundle.

I am using a lambda function to parse a file uploaded to s3 then take the data and put it in a remote mysql database. I am using sequelize.js with the mysql2 package. I’ve deployed my code but I get the this error, {“errorType”:“Error”,“errorMessage”:“Please install mysql2 package manually”}. I googled around and found that using serverless-webpack I just need to use the following.

custom:
  webpack:
    includeModules:
      forceInclude:
        - mysql
        - mysql2

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48554917/getting-sequelize-js-library-to-work-on-amazon-lambda I tried that but it obviously didn’t work with serverless-bundle. I saw a previous issue about using knex.js that looked like a similar problem. I tried installing the serverless-bundle@beta as was suggested but it didn’t install properly.

I’m brand new to serverless and I’m not sure what else to do.

BTW, I found the work around in here. Basically Sequelize config accepts a dialectModule option, which would allow webpack to work around the dynamic import issue. Here’s some code fragments I extract from an working example:

// hello.js
import Sequelize from 'sequelize'
import pg from 'pg'

export const hello = async function (event, context, ...rest) {
  const sequelize = new Sequelize(
    process.env.DB_NAME,
    process.env.DB_USERNAME,
    process.env.DB_PASSWORD,
    {
      host: process.env.DB_HOST,
      dialect: process.env.DB_DIALECT,
      dialectModule: pg
    }
  )
  const result = await sequelize.query('select 1+1 as result')

  return {
    statusCode: 200,
    body: JSON.stringify(
      {
        message: `Hello ${result}`,
        input: event
      },
      null,
      2
    )
  }

# serverless.yml
service: sls2

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs12.x
  environment:
    DB_DIALECT: "postgres"
    DB_NAME: "sls2_name"
    DB_USERNAME: "sls2_username"
    DB_PASSWORD: "sls2_password"
    ...
custom:
  bundle:
    # forceInclude: # NOTE: you don't need this anymore
    #   - pg
    ignorePackages:
      - pg-native

plugins:
  - serverless-bundle

functions:
  hello:
    handler: src/hello.hello

I suggest we create an examples folder, and add these solutions for special cases into there as working (but minimal) examples.

For now, let me add a note to the README with your instructions. Later we can link to an example.
