Specify a region for a function in serverless.yml

Serverless Framework
1

Hi :slight_smile:

In serverless.yml file, I can specify the stage and region for my functions by using provider.

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs4.3
  stage: dev
  region: ap-northeast-1

I was wondering there is a way to assign the region and stage into each function. Like…

function:
    myUniqueFunction:
        handler: hander.js
        stage: v1
        region: ap-northeast-2

As a workaround, I compress the function files with deploy -n command and upload the zip file to the target region manually. If there is no way to handle this problem in severless.yml, is there better way to do this?

Nope, region can’t be configured at a function level.

As this is not a common use case - most services will want to be in the same region if they have shared resources or just for administration purposes - I think your per-function deployment is a good work-around.

Thank you! I agree that this is not a common requirement.
