Where is my entrypoint.js

[escobar5]

Describe the bug
I have a workspace with this structure:

• packages
  • core
  • api

api depends on core.

when I run yarn bundle inside api, everything works fine, and bundle.zip is created, but inside, there is no signs of entrypoint.js.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run command 'yarn bundle'
2. Open bundle.zip
3. See entrypoint.js missing

Expected behavior
As the documentation states, there should be a file called entrypoint.js

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: macOS Monterrey 12.3.1

It looks for "main" in package.json of the workspace your bundling, as it needs to re-export that.

[escobar5]

The workspace I'm bundling has: "main": "./dist/main.js",, should entrypoint.js be created? or am I missing something?

[ojkelly]

Nope that's correct.

entrypoint.js is meant to be added to the very top level of the zip. This is so you don't need to encode the whole path to your script, in particular for Lambda which expects to be able to import a file at the top folder.

Can you confirm if it's in the top folder, and if not would you mind creating a stripped down repo that reproduces it?

additionally, if you're running this in something like docker, you can run the command yarn workspace api start presuming your package is named api and there is a script start, and that will start your package. You can also cd to the right directory and run it.

Ok, I will try to reproduce it on an empty project, I'm good with executing the project with yarn workspace start, I was just curious about that file.

Thanks
