Check if Running Locally – AWS SAM & NodeJS

Hi everyone,

Just a quick post on how to check if code is being run locally with AWS SAM and NodeJS:

// 8+
isRunningLocally = () => {
    return process.env.AWS_SAM_LOCAL === 'true';
}

// 6+
function isRunningLocally() {
    return process.env.AWS_SAM_LOCAL === 'true';
}
