    This example shows how to use Amazon EFS with AWS Lambda in Pulumi. See the Using AWS Lambda with Amazon Elastic File System (EFS) blog post for a detailed walkthrough of this example.

    Prerequisites

    Running the Example

    After cloning this repo, cd into it and run these commands:

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

      $ pulumi stack init dev
      
    2. Set your desired AWS region:

      $ pulumi config set aws:region us-east-1 # any valid AWS region will work
      
    3. Deploy everything with a single pulumi up command. This will show you a preview of changes first, which includes all of the required AWS resources (clusters, services, and the like). Don’t worry if it’s more than you expected – this is one of the benefits of Pulumi, it configures everything so that so you don’t need to!

      $ pulumi up
      

      After being prompted and selecting “yes”, your deployment will begin. It’ll complete in a few minutes:

      Resources:
          + 75 created
      
      Duration: 5m52s
      
    4. At this point, your app is running! The URL was published so it’s easy to interact with:

      $ curl -X POST -d '<h1>Hello world</h1>' $(pulumi stack output url)files/index.html
      $ curl -X GET $(pulumi stack output url)files/index.html
      <h1>Hello world</h1>
      
    5. Once you are done, you can destroy all of the resources, and the stack:

      $ pulumi destroy
      $ pulumi stack rm
