Hi, I want to integrate a Lambda written in Go to my amplify project.
It is split in multiple files in a same package, which worked well with AWS SAM.
But it doesn't seems to be supported with amplify.

Here is the error I get when I want to build the sample code below:

amplify build function tryToCompileGo

⠙ Building resources. This may take a few minutes...# command-line-arguments
./main.go:15:2: undefined: HelloTest
✖ An error occurred when building the resources.
Error: Command failed with exit code 2: go build -o /Users/maxime/workspace/myproject/amplify/backend/function/tryToCompileGo/bin/main main.go

There was an error building the function resources

If the command triggered by amplify were

go build -o /Users/maxime/workspace/myproject/amplify/backend/function/tryToCompileGo/bin/main .

instead of

go build -o /Users/maxime/workspace/myproject/amplify/backend/function/tryToCompileGo/bin/main main.go

It would work

Code

src/hello.go

package main

func HelloTest() {
    println("Hello !")
}

src/main.go

package main

import (
    "context"
    "fmt"

    "github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/lambda"
)

type MyEvent struct {
    Name string `json:"name"`
}

func HandleRequest(ctx context.Context, name MyEvent) (string, error) {
    HelloTest()
    return fmt.Sprintf("Hello %s!", name.Name), nil
}

func main() {
    lambda.Start(HandleRequest)
}
