Netlify Functions TypeScript template

TypeScript template for Netlify Functions. Prints "Hello, World" in the browser.

If you're forking this template from GitHub

Run npm install to install all node dependencies.
Install Netlify CLI globally using the command npm install netlify-cli -g.
To run this function locally, you'll need to link your Netlify site with your repository. Easiest way is to create a .netlify folder and inside that, create a state.json file with the following contents. Get your site id or API id from the site settings and paste it here. Then run the command netlify link.

{
	"siteId": "PASTE YOUR API ID HERE"
}

Run netlify build to build your code and generate a function. This command uses the settings in the netlify.toml file to run a build command. The build command compiles TypeScript files into JavaScript and automatically creates the required netlify/functions folder for you and places the index.js function file inside this folder.
Run netlify dev to start a local development server to test your function. If the local server starts at port 8888, then the URL to access this function is http://localhost:8888/.netlify/functions/index.
