Suppose I want to use a third party lib such as axios how do I go about doing that?

If I import * as axios from "axios"; then run sls webpack serve I get the following error:

ReferenceError: XMLHttpRequest is not defined
    at dispatchXhrRequest (C:\Projects\Experiments\my-third-service\.webpack\handler.js:1045:24)
    at xhrAdapter (C:\Projects\Experiments\my-third-service\.webpack\handler.js:1037:11)
    at process._tickDomainCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:129:7)

If I include axios in the externals of webpack.config.js:

externals: [
    'axios'
  ],

The code runs but after sls deploy I get the following error when I try to run the function:

{"errorMessage":"Cannot find module 'axios'","errorType":"Error","stackTrace":["Module.require (module.js:353:17)","require (internal/module.js:12:17)","Object.<anonymous> (/var/task/handler.js:132:19)","__webpack_require__ (/var/task/handler.js:20:30)","Object.<anonymous> (/var/task/handler.js:51:14)","__webpack_require__ (/var/task/handler.js:20:30)","/var/task/handler.js:40:18","Object.<anonymous> (/var/task/handler.js:43:10)"]}

Any ideas? Perhaps an example that uses a third party lib would be good?
