Abstracts the more mundane aspects of lambda resources
A lot of boilerplate code is required to implemented lambda's for AWS Config and custom Cloudformation resources. We can abstract this away and wrap our rule in data structures to improve development and encourage a particular structure.
$ pip install awslambdahelper
# my_lambda_code.py
from awslambdahelper import AWSConfigRule
class MyConfigRule(AWSConfigRule):
def find_violation_config_change(self, config, rule_parameters):
return [NonCompliantEvaluation(
Annotation="This failed because it is only a demo."
)]
lambda_handler = MyConfigRule.handler
>>> import boto3
>>> boto3.client('lambda').create_function(
Handler = "my_lambda_code.lambda_handler'
)
