AWS Lambda Deployment

AWS Lambda is an event driven, serverless computing platform. Ballerina functions can be deployed in AWS Lambda by annotating a a Ballerina function with “@awslambda:Function”, which should have the function signature function (awslambda:Context, json) returns json|error.

For more information, see How to Deploy Ballerina Programs and Services in the Cloud.

 
import ballerinax/awslambda;
import ballerina/system;

@awslambda:Function
public function echo(awslambda:Context ctx, json input) returns json|error {
   return input;
}

The @awslambda:Function annotation marks a function to generate an AWS Lambda function

 
@awslambda:Function
public function uuid(awslambda:Context ctx, json input) returns json|error {
   return system:uuid();
}

@awslambda:Function

public function ctxinfo(awslambda:Context ctx, json input) returns json|error {
   json result = { RequestID: ctx.getRequestId(),
                   DeadlineMS: ctx.getDeadlineMs(),
                   InvokedFunctionArn: ctx.getInvokedFunctionArn(),
                   TraceID: ctx.getTraceId(),
                   RemainingExecTime: ctx.getRemainingExecutionTime() };
   return result;
}

The awslambda:Context object contains request execution context information

 
# Prerequisites: AWS CLI tools installation and configuration

# Build the Ballerina program to generate the AWS Lambda functions
$ ballerina build aws_lambda_deployment.bal
Compiling source
	aws_lambda_deployment.bal
Generating executables
	aws_lambda_deployment-executable.jar
	@awslambda:Function: echo, uuid, ctxinfo

	The Ballerina AWS Lambda layer information can be found at https://ballerina.io/deployment/aws-lambda.

	Run the following commands to deploy each Ballerina AWS Lambda function:
	aws lambda create-function --function-name <FUNCTION_NAME> --zip-file fileb://aws-ballerina-lambda-functions.zip --handler aws_lambda_deployment-executable.<FUNCTION_NAME> --runtime provided --role <LAMBDA_ROLE_ARN> --timeout 10 --memory-size 1024
	aws lambda update-function-configuration --function-name <FUNCTION_NAME> --layers <BALLERINA_LAYER_ARN>

	Run the following command to re-deploy an updated Ballerina AWS Lambda function:
	aws lambda update-function-code --function-name <FUNCTION_NAME> --zip-file fileb://aws-ballerina-lambda-functions.zip

# Execute the AWS CLI commands to create and publish the functions, and your AWS <LAMBDA_ROLE_ARN> and the <BALLERINA_LAYER_ARN> for a specific Ballerina release should be used, following values are just examples
