Bring your own runtime to AWS Lambda!

This project offers a C compatible library for applications to import and run on AWS Lambda. Currently supported is NodeJS, but bindings could be written for any language.

We do NOT use a wrapper or loader, but instead offer library methods that emulate a Golang 1.x application.

Supported language runtimes:

• NodeJS
• C

Usage - NodeJS

The npm module currently ships a pre-compiled binary. Changes in the future will properly compile this or utilize node-pre-gyp. Until then, if the npm module does not work, you may need to build this project locally using npm run build.

1. npm install -S lambda-transport or checkout this package, run npm run build and install it into your project with npm install.
2. Copy a NodeJS binary into your project as file node.
3. Include the following as the file main with mode 755:

#!./node
var lambda = require('lambda-transport')
function handler (context, event) {
  console.log("Hello world");
}
lambda.start(handler);

Finally, package as a zip and deploy to Lambda!

Usage - C

Currently return values are not handled. The function type will be changed eventually to support this.

#include <gorpc.h>

void handler(char *context, char *event) {
  /* context and event are JSON serialized... */
}

int main () {
  Start(handler);
}

Link to gorpc.a (or generate a shared gorpc.so).
