# AWS API Gateway V2 HTTP API Quickstart

Quickstart example of using AWS API Gateway v2 HTTP API

- Source on GitHub: https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/aws-ts-apigatewayv2-http-api-quickcreate

## Get started with this example

This example lives in the [pulumi/examples](https://github.com/pulumi/examples/tree/master/aws-ts-apigatewayv2-http-api-quickcreate) repo. Pull down just this directory to follow along:

```bash
git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples
git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set aws-ts-apigatewayv2-http-api-quickcreate
cd pulumi-examples/aws-ts-apigatewayv2-http-api-quickcreate
```

Set up a simple HTTP API using AWS API Gateway V2

## Deploying and running the program

Note: some values in this example will be different from run to run.  These values are indicated
with `***`.

1.  Create a new stack:

    ```bash
    $ pulumi stack init http-api
    ```

1.  Set the AWS region:

    ```
    $ pulumi config set aws:region us-east-2
    ```

1.  Restore NPM modules via `npm install` or `yarn install`.

1.  Run `pulumi up` to preview and deploy changes:

    ```
    $ pulumi up
    Previewing update (http-api)
    ...

    Updating (http-api)

        Type                             Name                                     Status
    +   pulumi:pulumi:Stack              aws-ts-apigatewayv2-quickstart-http-api  created
    +   ├─ aws:iam:Role                  lambdaRole                               created
    +   ├─ aws:lambda:Function           lambdaFunction                           created
    +   ├─ aws:iam:RolePolicyAttachment  lambdaRoleAttachment                     created
    +   ├─ aws:apigatewayv2:Api          httpApiGateway                           created
    +   └─ aws:lambda:Permission         lambdapermission                         created

    Outputs:
        endpoint: "https://****.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com"

    Resources:
        + 6 created

    Duration: 22s
    ```

1.  View the endpoint URL and curl a few routes:

    ```bash
    $ pulumi stack output
    Current stack outputs (1):
        OUTPUT            VALUE
        endpoint          https://***.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com

    $ curl $(pulumi stack output endpoint)
    Hello, Pulumi!
    ```

1.  To view the runtime logs of the Lambda function, use the `pulumi logs` command. To get a log stream, use `pulumi logs --follow`.

## Clean up

1.  Run `pulumi destroy` to tear down all resources.

1.  To delete the stack itself, run `pulumi stack rm`. Note that this command deletes all deployment history from the Pulumi console.
