AWS::Lambda serverless invoke local function not reflecting my new wcode - node.js

Question

Not sure what is happening with my code.
It never executes my updated code on my local. If I update my code and run sls invoke local , it still runs the old code. ALso, it does not send out SES EMail.
For some reason, it always executes the code which was already deployed to AWS platform rather than executing my local code. This is confusing.
Below is my serverless.yml:
service: lambda-test
provider:
name: aws
runtime: nodejs8.10
stage: dev
region: ap-southeast-1
iamRoleStatements:
- Effect: Allow
Action:
- lambda:InvokeFunction
- lambda:InvokeAsync
Resource: "*"
functions:
hello:
handler: handler.hello
environment:
events:
- http:
path: /
method: get
trulyYours:
handler: handler.trulyYours
environment:
events:
- http:
path: /trulyYours
method: get
sendRegistrationEmail:
handler: handler.sendRegistrationEmail
environment:
events:
- http:
path: /sendRegistrationEmail
method: get
plugins:
- serverless-offline
I am not sure if I should continue to edit code in AWS web console itself or try
setting up local dev environment. Been tying since last two days, but turning out to be useless to spend time.
'use strict';
var aws = require("aws-sdk");
var nodeMailer = require("nodemailer");
//aws.config.loadFromPath('aws_config.json');
var ses = new aws.SES();
var s3 = new aws.S3();
module.exports.hello = async (event, context) => {
console.log("executing lambda function 'hello' XX...");
// return {
// statusCode: 200,
// body: JSON.stringify({
// message: 'v1.0',
// }),
// };
// Use this code if you don't use the http event with the LAMBDA-PROXY integration
// return { message: 'Go Serverless v1.0! Your function executed successfully!', event };
};
//
exports.trulyYours = async (event, context, callback) => {
console.log('Lambda trulyYours Received event:', JSON.stringify(event, null, 2));
//context.succeed('Hello from' + event.name);
return {
statusCode: 200,
body: JSON.stringify({
message: 'hello from trulyYours' + event.name,
}),
};
}
/*function trulyYours (foo, bar) {
// MyLambdaFunction logic here
}*/
module.exports.sendRegistrationEmail = (event, context) => {
console.log("Executing sendRegistrationEmail...");
var lambda = new aws.Lambda({
region: 'ap-southeast-1' //change to your region
});
var params = {
FunctionName: 'lambda-test-dev-trulyYours', // the lambda function we are going to invoke
InvocationType: 'RequestResponse',
LogType: 'Tail',
Payload: '{ "name" : "Alexa" }'
};
lambda.invoke(params, function (err, data) {
if (err) {
context.fail(err);
} else if (data.Payload) {
context.succeed('Lambda trulyYours ' + data.Payload);
}
});
//
// return {
// statusCode: 200,
// body: JSON.stringify({
// message: 'sent email successfully',
// }),
// };
// Use this code if you don't use the http event with the LAMBDA-PROXY integration
// return { message: 'Go Serverless v1.0! Your function executed successfully!', event };
};

Try to create a serverless-local.yml, for example :
config:
region: eu-west-1
environment:
VAR: local
database:
hostname: localhost
port: 8000
username: root
password: toor
database: db
url: http://localhost:3000
and in you serverless.yml in provider add this line :
stage: ${opt:stage, 'dev'}
then in you terminal try this cli :
sls invoke local -f functionName -s local
