I wanted to see what you meant, so I signed up for an account and followed the prompts to deploy their stock express.js example.
At the AWS provider setup, there was a “?” next to “Provider Credentials”. Hovering over showed this text: “ Providers are a simple way for your team to store and use credentials for cloud platforms across your apps. Looking to use local credentials instead?”
The last sentence links to docs for using local credentials.
This seems to make clear what’s going on.
Edit: To add, maybe I’m just not hip with new front end strategies, but in my mind, if a website asks me to enter data into it and submit a form, I assume the server operator is getting that data. I’d consider that the default, and even sites which claim to keep my data client-side I approach with hesitancy.
- alphamacaroon 6y agoAgreed. But the problem is— I've never once given serverless my credentials... The specific instance in this case is that there is portion of serverless (called serverless-components) where it appears to boost them from your `~/.aws/credentials` file, which seems very inappropriate.
