Support custom serverless versions (0.x)

[arabold]

I know this is a bit of a special request, but I'm using my own fork of Serverless: https://www.npmjs.com/package/serverless-z

It has a couple of (for me) important fixes and improvements:

• Plugins are automatically loaded from node_modules folder. No more need to update s-project.json
• Support passthroughBehavior configuration and deprecated the use of requestParameters in APIG endpoints
• Improved the creation of CloudWatch Events for scheduled Lambdas
• Added support for ap-southeast-2 region
• Merged various minor bug fixes from the official Serverless repo

As this custom version uses a version number 0.6.x, it isn't compatible with this plugin anymore (see index.js line 136). I wonder what you think about relaxing the version check to support my custom version as well?

hi @arabold, I can't do that i'm sorry, you're fork is too specific (plus the features you've mentioned are bundled in the v1-RC1 version of Severless). With don't you fork serverless-offline too?

[arabold]

I understand and yeah, I could fork serverless-offline as well. I was just wondering about the specific 0.5.x version check as it limits upward compatibility of the plugin. Serverless 1.0 as such is the future, but unfortunately it's neither backward compatible nor does it offer all the features 0.5 did. The fork it an interim solution for that.
