s3-file-processing won't work - aws-sdk dependency is missing locally

Error: Cannot find module 'aws-sdk'

I guess the fix is to either suggest manually installing the aws-sdk, or add it to packages.json? If it was clear to me which one i could send a PR

I went into the same issue earlier. From what I know, 2 workarounds:

1. add aws-sdk to package.json "dependencies"
2. manually npm i aws-sdk and during claudia create / update, add the --use-local-dependencies flag, this may include other stuff (e.g. devDependencies) into the lambda.

Not sure there are other better options. I used option 1 above.

aws-sdk should be, according to the docs, provided by lambda anyway. if they stopped doing it, i'll just add aws-sdk to dependencies

I think it still is, but that doesn't help Claudia build the package locally
