[plugin] LocalDebugging example - archive fails because of Shared code

[sebsto]

Expected behavior

I expect the archive plugin to package the MyLambda function part of the Examples/Localdebugging
The archive command fails because part of the MyLambda function relies on Shared code which is not under MyLambda directory.

Actual behavior

The archive fails because the Lambda function relies on shared code outside of the MyLambda directory structure.

One solution that worked for me is to consider both MyLambda and Shared as one package, i.e.

• delete MyLambda/Package.swift
• delete Shared/Package.swift
• create ./Package.swift at root directory level (Examples/LocalDebugging) with the following content

import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
    name: "MyLambda",
    platforms: [
        .macOS(.v12),
    ],
    products: [
        .executable(name: "MyLambda", targets: ["MyLambda"]),
        .library(name: "Shared", targets: ["Shared"]),
    ],
    dependencies: [
        // this is the dependency on the swift-aws-lambda-runtime library
        // in real-world projects this would say
        .package(url: "https://github.com/swift-server/swift-aws-lambda-runtime.git", branch: "main"),
//        .package(name: "swift-aws-lambda-runtime", path: "../../.."),
    ],
    targets: [
        .executableTarget(
            name: "MyLambda",
            dependencies: [
                .product(name: "AWSLambdaRuntime", package: "swift-aws-lambda-runtime"),
                .byName(name: "Shared"),
            ],
            path: "./MyLambda",
            exclude: ["scripts/", "Dockerfile"]
        ),
        .target(name: "Shared", 
                dependencies: [],
                path: "./Shared") 
    ]
)

That allows to build and archive the Shared library and the MyLambda lambda function.

interesting issue. the archive plugin assumes the lambda is self contained and no external file system dependencies outside the package directory. in concept, the command should be invoked from Examples/LocalDebugging/MyLambda and not the root of the example Examples/LocalDebugging, but as mentioned above the docker bind mount will not "see" the shared module. this requires more thinking. I think re-arranging the example as suggested defeats the idea of having a shared module across the lambda and iOS app?

Thank you Tom. Looks like the old debate about mono vs. multi repositories.

I re-arranged the package structure to share the same Package.swift for the targets MyLambda and Shared. This allows the plugin to build and archive MyLamba. At the same time, I also made minimum changes to the Xcode workspace to continue to be able to build and debug from Xcode.

That way, the iOS app still depends on the Swift package. However, with this approach, Xcode sees both MyLambda and Shared. This structure kind off transfers "ownership" of the shared library to the "MyLambda" project. It will not work in larger teams where three different teams would maintain these three artifacts.

Project now builds with swift build
It runs with export LOCAL_LAMBDA_SERVER_ENABLED=true && swift run MyLambda.
It packages with swift package --disable-sandbox archive
It runs by selecting the MyLambda target in Xcode
It runs by selecting the MyApp target in Xcode

Agree with you that more thinking or feedback is required on that one.

won't be fixed
