AWS Golang Lambda

This example lives in the pulumi/examples repository. Check out just this directory to use it:

$ git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples
$ git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set aws-go-lambda
$ cd pulumi-examples/aws-go-lambda

This example creates an AWS Lambda function that does a simple ToUpper on the string input and returns it.

Deploying the App#

To deploy your infrastructure, follow the below steps.

Prerequisites#

1. Install Pulumi
2. Configure AWS Credentials
3. Clone aws-go-lambda

Steps#

After cloning this repo, run these commands from the working directory:

1. Build the handler:

   • For developers on Linux and macOS:

     make build

   • For developers on Windows:

     • Get the build-lambda-zip tool:

       set GO111MODULE=on
       go.exe get -u github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/cmd/build-lambda-zip

     • Use the tool from your GOPATH:

       set GOOS=linux
       set GOARCH=amd64
       set CGO_ENABLED=0
       go build -o handler\bootstrap handler\handler.go
       %USERPROFILE%\Go\bin\build-lambda-zip.exe -o handler\handler.zip handler\bootstrap

2. Create a new Pulumi stack, which is an isolated deployment target for this example:

   pulumi stack init

3. Set the required configuration variables for this program:

   pulumi config set aws:region us-east-1

4. Execute the Pulumi program to create our lambda:

   pulumi up

5. Call our Lambda function from the AWS CLI with “foo” as the payload:

   aws lambda invoke \
   --function-name $(pulumi stack output lambda) \
   --region $(pulumi config get aws:region) \
   --cli-binary-format raw-in-base64-out \
   --payload '"foo"' \
   output.json
   
   cat output.json # view the output file with your tool of choice
   # "FOO"

6. From there, feel free to experiment. Simply making edits, rebuilding your handler, and running pulumi up will update your function.

7. Afterwards, destroy your stack and remove it:

   pulumi destroy --yes
   pulumi stack rm --yes
