THIS IS DEAD. THUMBOR WAS KIND OF DUMB(OR).

AWS Serverless Image Handler Lambda wrapper for Thumbor

A solution to dynamically handle images on the fly, utilizing Thumbor (thumbor.org)

Notes from Doug

To build, I got a shell into an ubuntu docker instance, installed the prerequisite libs, then built as outlined below.

The built zip file and CloudFormation templates were uploaded to the thumbnailer-lambda-source-us-west-2 S3 bucket.

The CloudFormation template was run, creating the AWS lambda and AWS API Gateway stuff.

The end result is an HTTP endpoint (currently https://q8udooxx0b.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/image/) that acts as a proxy to thumbor, so you can just throw a (signed) thumbor path at the end of that and it should work (e.g., https://q8udooxx0b.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/image/Fra_uWcou7dse-P51bf2PrmNQvs=/250x150/smart/upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3d/LARGE_elevation.jpg).

OS/Python Environment Setup

sudo yum-config-manager --enable epel
sudo yum update -y
sudo yum install git libpng-devel libcurl-devel gcc python-devel libjpeg-devel -y
sudo pip install --upgrade pip
alias sudo='sudo env PATH=$PATH'
sudo  pip install --upgrade setuptools
sudo pip install --upgrade virtualenv 

Building Lambda Package

cd deployment
./build-s3-dist.sh source-bucket-base-name

source-bucket-base-name should be the base name for the S3 bucket location where the template will source the Lambda code from. The template will append '-[region_name]' to this value. For example: ./build-s3-dist.sh solutions The template will then expect the source code to be located in the solutions-[region_name] bucket
