Lambda functions sometimes have dependencies outside aws-sdk. To satisfy these dependencies (ie include code that a lambda function can access), AWS provides a way of uploading a deployment package (a bundle of the lambda function and the directories) to AWS Lambda (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/nodejs-create-deployment-pkg.html).
For example, my lambda function A depends on code in directories dirB and dirC. When I use the serverless framework, is there a way for me to specify that A needs dirB and dirC.
My thought is to upload dirB and dirC to S3 containers and then specify these S3 containers as resources for A.
Is this a valid approach? Even if it is, is there something less complicated?
