deploy

Create a new deploy from the contents of a folder

Deploys from the build settings found in the netlify.toml file, or settings from the API.

The following environment variables can be used to override configuration file lookups and prompts:

• NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN - an access token to use when authenticating commands. Keep this value private.
• NETLIFY_SITE_ID - override any linked site in the current working directory.

Lambda functions in the function folder can be in the following configurations for deployment:

Built Go binaries:

functions/
└── nameOfGoFunction

Build binaries of your Go language functions into the functions folder as part of your build process.

Single file Node.js functions:

Build dependency bundled Node.js lambda functions with tools like netlify-lambda, webpack or browserify into the function folder as part of your build process.

functions/
└── nameOfBundledNodeJSFunction.js

Unbundled Node.js functions that have dependencies outside or inside of the functions folder:

You can ship unbundled Node.js functions with the CLI, utilizing top level project dependencies, or a nested package.json. If you use nested dependencies, be sure to populate the nested node_modules as part of your build process before deploying using npm or yarn.

project/
├── functions
│   ├── functionName/
│   │   ├── functionName.js  (Note the folder and the function name need to match)
│   │   ├── package.json
│   │   └── node_modules/
│   └── unbundledFunction.js
├── package.json
├── netlify.toml
└── node_modules/

Any mix of these configurations works as well.

Node.js function entry points

Function entry points are determined by the file name and name of the folder they are in:

functions/
├── aFolderlessFunctionEntrypoint.js
└── functionName/
    ├── notTheEntryPoint.js
    └── functionName.js

Support for package.json's main field, and intrinsic index.js entrypoints are coming soon.
