Inquiry - Deploy nodejs function with node_modules due to custom code/branch
TL;DR
User is asking if it's possible to deploy a Node.js function with node_modules due to custom code or branch. They mention that they've read that it's not recommended to deploy a Node.js application with node_modules, but they have custom code written in the module that they don't want to make public. They ask if removing the package.json file would solve the problem.
Solution: Another user responds saying that while it's generally recommended to not include node_modules in the deployment, they can include it in their node_modules folder. However, they may need to deploy manually because the CLI tries to ignore node_modules.
