AWS Lambda

Submission for Code Challenge 36 - Create an AWS Lambda Function. Thanks to Real Python for this excellent beginner tutorial.

What it does

As per Real Python's article I set up my Lambda function to receive payload via API Gateway. The lambda retrieves prid via a POST request and reaches out to GH API to retrieve the py files. It stores them in /tmp and runs PEP8 on them. It returns ok or results output upon any violations.

• Submission with some PEP violations:

  

• This PR was OK:

  

Deploy

• There is one dependency, the pep8 module, to deploy to AWS, make a zip file of pep_lambda.py and pep8.py and upload it in AWS Lambda generator GUI. To verify locally run verify_pep_lambda.py.

TODOs

• Add a webhook for our Challenges repo
• Run unittests upon detection of test_*py files
• Build out to CI and write an article
