We are currently restricted to usage of a node sandbox as lambda server.
With this pull request I want to add support for docker containers to run as lambda server. This allows developers to use any server language they want to develop lambdas.
How does it work:
Example:
I have created an example repository that uses golang as lambda server.
Here you can find an example docker-compose file on how to start the alpha server with docker image.
What's missing:
Allow update of docker image through admin api
About alternatives:
I thought a lot about alternatives and tried to implement WebAssembly as runtime, but it is still very restricted. I could only make it work with Rust and Typescript, but I think Docker is a better and simpler alternative.
