Serverless support: Passing outputs from one service to another

[tbehunin]

Looking through all the docs, I can't seem to find how one goes about passing outputs from one service to another - similar to how serverless-compose works. Can this be configured somehow on seed.run?

We don't have a built in way for this in Seed right now.

Ok thanks for clarifying. Is this feature on the roadmap in the future and/or do you know of workarounds that people use to make this work?

[jayair]

Honestly we are in a bit of a wait and see mode with Serverless Framework. It doesn't look like it's being actively worked on. I think a work around would be to use CloudFormation exports?

I've employed a bit of a work-around by doing ${file(../other-service/serverless.yml)):someProp} to pull in data from other serverless services. Seems to be working for my scenarios so far 🤞

Yup!
