Reducing Lambda size when using googleapis module

The problem

import { google } from "googleapis"

...
const peopleApi = google.people({
  version: "v1",
  auth: accessToken
})
...

Even though I was only using one API, every single API from the package was included in the bundle.

The solution

import { people_v1 } from "googleapis/build/src/apis/people";

...
const peopleApi = new people_v1.People({
  auth: accessToken
})
...

The problem will soon be solved

Conclusion

Thanks for reading.
