AWS Greengrass Core Rust SDK

Provides an idiomatic Rust wrapper around the AWS Greengrass Core C SDK to more easily enable Greengrass native lambda functions in Rust.

Features

  • Publishing to MQTT topics
  • Registering handlers and receiving messages from MQTT topics
  • Logging to the Greengrass logging backend via the log crate
  • Acquiring Secrets

Examples

  • hello.rs - Simple example for initializing the greengrass runtime and sending a message on a topic
  • echo.rs - Example that shows how to register a Handler with the greengrass runtime and listen for message.
  • shadow.rs - Example showing how to acquire and manipulate shadow documents.
  • longlived.rs - Example showing how to create a longlived greengrass lambda that exposes a http endpoint.
  • invoker.rs - An example of invoking one lambda for another lambda. Should be used with invokee.rs

Building examples

Examples can be built following the directions in Quick start. Use cargo build --example <example> to build.

Quickstart

Prerequisites and Requirements

Note for Building on mac

The C Greengrass SDK fails to build on Mac OS X. The stubs directory contains a simple stubbed version of the SDK that can be used for compiling against Mac OS X.

To Install:

  1. cd stubs
  2. mkdir build && cd build
  3. cmake ..
  4. make
  5. make install

Create new cargo project

cargo new --bin my_gg_lambda

Add the library to the Cargo.toml

Additionally, defined the logging crate

aws_greengrass_core_rust = "0.1.36"
log = "^0.4"

Edit main.rs

  1. Initialize logging, greengrass runtime, and register a Handler
use aws_greengrass_core_rust::Initializer;
use aws_greengrass_core_rust::log as gglog;
use aws_greengrass_core_rust::handler::{Handler, LambdaContext};
use log::{info, error, LevelFilter};
use aws_greengrass_core_rust::runtime::Runtime;

struct HelloHandler;

impl Handler for HelloHandler {
    fn handle(&self, ctx: LambdaContext) {
        info!("Received context: {:#?}", ctx);
        let msg = String::from_utf8(ctx.message).expect("Message was not a valid utf8 string");
        info!("Received event: {}", msg);
    }
}

pub fn main() {
    gglog::init_log(LevelFilter::Info);
    let runtime = Runtime::default().with_handler(Some(Box::new(HelloHandler)));
    if let Err(e) = Initializer::default().with_runtime(runtime).init() {
        error!("Initialization failed: {}", e);
        std::process::exit(1);
    }
}

Build and package your lambda function

cargo build --release
zip  zip -j my_gg_lambda.zip "./target/release/my_gg_lambda"

Note: The binaries must be built on the operating system and architecture you are deploying to. If you are not on linux (Mac OS/windows) you can use the docker build: ./dockerbuild.sh cargo build

This will only work for x86 builds.

Deploy your lambda function

Using the information you used when creating your Greengrass group:

aws lambda create-function \
    --region aws-region \
    --function-name my_gg_lambda_x86 \
    --handler executable-name \
    --role role-arn \
    --zip-file fileb://file-name.zip \
    --runtime arn:aws:greengrass:::runtime/function/executable

aws lambda publish-version \
    --function-name my_gg_lambda_x86 \
    --region aws-region

aws lambda create-alias \
    --function-name my_gg_lambda_x86 \
    --name alias-name \
    --function-version version-number \
    --region aws-region

Note: We recommend adding an architecture suffix like x86 or arm to the lambda name if you are planning on deploying to multiple architectures.

Configure your lambda function in your greengrass group

Follow the instructions found in Configure the Lambda Function for AWS IoT Greengrass

Testing in your project

When the feature "mock" is turned during the test phase the various clients will:

  1. Allow you outputs to be overridden
  2. Save arguments that methods have been called with

Example

  #[cfg(test)]
    mod test {
        use super::*;

        #[test]
        fn test_publish_str() {
            let topic = "foo";
            let message = "this is my message";

            let mocks = MockHolder::default().with_publish_raw_outputs(vec![Ok(())]);
            let client = IOTDataClient::default().with_mocks(mocks);
            let response = client.publish(topic, message).unwrap();
            println!("response: {:?}", response);

            let PublishRawInput(raw_topic, raw_bytes, raw_read) =
                &client.mocks.publish_raw_inputs.borrow()[0];
            assert_eq!(raw_topic, topic);
        }
    }

Building from source

Building

  1. cargo build

Testing Mock feature

The examples will not build appropriately when the mock feature is enabled. To run the tests you must skip the examples: cargo test --features mock --lib

Testing with code coverage

There are some issues with coverage tools running correctly with our bindgen configuration in build.rs. Most of the tests do not actually need this as bindings.rs contains a mock set of bindings. To get around the failure the feature "coverage" can be enabled. This will avoid the bindings being generate and disable the couple of spots where the real bindings are needed.

Coverage with grcov

  1. Install gperftools
  2. Install Rust nightly: rustup install nightly
  3. Install grcov: cargo +nightly install grcov
  4. Set the following environment variables:
export CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0
export RUSTFLAGS="-Zprofile -Ccodegen-units=1 -Cinline-threshold=0 -Clink-dead-code -Coverflow-checks=off -Zno-landing-pads"
  1. Build with coverage information:
cargo clean
cargo +nightly build --features coverage
cargo +nightly test --features coverage
  1. Run grcov:
grcov ./target/debug/ -s . -t html --llvm --branch --ignore-not-existing -o ./target/debug/coverage/

Cross compilation

AWS_GREENGRASS_STUBS=yes CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$(pwd)/linux-gnu-x86_64.cmake cargo build --target=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

Coverage with Jetbrains CLion

  1. Create a run coverage named Test
  2. Set the command to be: test --features coverage
  3. Run with coverage
