Deploying multiple AWS lambdas separately

Question

I'm using Serverless Framework 1.32.0 with AWS Lambdas and Python 3.6. I would like to deploy multiple lambdas in a separate way, since at this moment I can only do deployments one by one for every lambda in my directory, which can be confusing with many lambdas in a short future.

This is my current project structure:

└── cat_service
    │   
    ├── hello_cat
    │   ├── hello_cat-functions.yml
    │   └── service.py
    │   
    ├── random_cat_fact
    │   ├── random_cat_fact-functions.yml
    │   └── service.py
    │   
    └── serverless.yml

serverless.yml

service: cat-service 

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: python3.6
  stage: dev
  stackName: cat-service
  deploymentBucket:
    name: test-cat-bucket
  role: arn:aws:iam::#{AWS::AccountId}:role/lambda-cat-role
  cfnRole: arn:aws:iam::#{AWS::AccountId}:role/cloudformation-cat-role

functions:
  - ${file(lambdas/hello_cat/hello_cat-functions.yml)}

stepFunctions:
  stateMachines:
    catStateMachine:
      definition:
        Comment: "Get cat hello"
        StartAt: hello_cat
        States:
          hello_cat:
            Type: Task
            Resource: "arn:aws:lambda:#{AWS::Region}:#{AWS::AccountId}:function:${self:service}-${opt:stage}-hello_cat"
            End: true

plugins:
  - serverless-step-functions
  - serverless-pseudo-parameters

hello_cat-functions.yml

msc_cat_facts:
  handler: service.handler
  name: ${self:service}-${opt:stage}-msc_cat_facts

The problem is that, when I deploy it with serverless deploy --stage dev, it zips the full project and does not separate lambdas, so the actual Lambda in the AWS console shows as hello_cat but includes the full project structure instead of separating every lambda files in its own directory.

Is there a way to deploy separate lambdas in the same project with only one serverless.yml?

Thanks in advance.

You'll need to configure Serverless to package individually

To do this add the following to your serverless.yaml:

package:
  individually: true
