Hi,

i was wondering if there will be a replacement for the `slash-graphql` npm package? If not has anyone put something together already to deploy eg. lambdas locally?

I found it also quite weird, that the Cloud API apparently can **list** and **update** lambdas but not **add** them?

Thanks!

There is no **add** and **delete** because a lambda script is always there, it just may be empty and contain no functions.

I have not tested or used this, but something like this should work:

Here is a working script that we are using via a husky powered git hook. const fetch = require('node-fetch') const fs = require('fs') async function updateSlashLambdas() { try { fs.readFile('./DgraphLambdas/\_final.js', async function (err, data) { if (err) return console.error(err) const lambdaScript = data.toString('base64') const updateLambdasQuery = `mutation UpdateDeployment($updateDeploymentInput: …
