Discussion - PayloadTooLargeError: request entity too large

[huygn]

Got this error when testing my function locally by sending a ~160kb POST request. This error doesn't happen when deployed on Netlify functions though.

This is due to express server with it's default limit and could be altered via middlewares. Could we allow express middlewares from netlify-lambda users via netlify-lambda-serve.js or similar mechanism for flexibilities?

sounds reasonable, but will not have bandwidth to work on this for the time being - keeping this issue open until we can address this

Afaict this is a non issue, adding a netlify-lambda-serve.js feature would not align at all with the Netlify Functions service and only fragment development / production further.

The original body size limit issue was resolved with #31.
