Why does this code error on Lambda when wrapped inside exports.handler?

Vote count: 0

I'm using this casperjs nodejs app: http://ift.tt/2lw7dI1

I've gotten my code to work locally and when uploaded to Lambda, but I need to wrap my code inside exports.handler so I can pass data to and from the function from the API gateway. (I already do this with other functions that are not using this app.) When I put my code inside exports.handler it fails. I have tested adding the event data to a test event inside lambda and I've tried hardcoding it. Both fail when my code is inside exports.handler. Why is exports.handler breaking this code?

Working code w/o exports.handler:

    viewportSize: {width: 768, height: 1024},
    userAgent: ua
});
var login = {email: 'fakeemail@gmail.com', pw: 'fakepw'}
var usrObj = {
    succ: {},
    err: []
};

//exit function
function exit() {
    setTimeout(function() {
        casper.exit();
        casper.bypass(1);
    }, 10);
}
//success & error message function
function message(dat) {
    if (dat === 'credentials') {
        console.log('Error: Login credentials are missing');
        return exit();
    }
    else if (dat) {
        console.log(dat);
        return exit();
    }

    if (usrObj['err'].length > 0) {
        console.log('Error not empty...');
        console.log(usrObj.err);
        return exit();
    }
    else if (usrObj['succ']) {
        console.log('Success not empty...');
        console.log(JSON.stringify(usrObj.succ));
        return exit();
