LocalStack Demo

Simple demo to provision AWS Lambda, APIGateway through Terraform and LocalStack

Why i make this demo

1st, it's always nice for developers to be able to have a local dev env to test before shipping to the AWS cloud. 2nd reason is AWS will bill you for the APIgateway, so if you only want to play around, by refer to my doc, it will cost you nothing at all. As everything is running on your own computer.

Prerequisites

Running LocalStack

Use the localstack CLI command to get your local AWS env started:

localstack start -d
# setup aws profile for localstack https://docs.localstack.cloud/user-guide/integrations/aws-cli/#aws-cli
# ~/.aws/config
[profile localstack]
region=us-east-1
output=json
endpoint_url = http://localhost:4566

# ~/.aws/credentials
[localstack]
aws_access_key_id=test
aws_secret_access_key=test

Git clone

git clone https://github.com/ShengzhenFu/go-lambda-apigateway-terraform.git
cd go-lambda-apigateway-terraform

Deploy Lambda & APIGateway

tfenv install 1.7.4
tfenv use 1.7.4
echo 1.7.4 > .terraform-version
make deploy

This will deploy the AWS ApiGateway integrated with Lambda (Golang) via Terraform. You can check Makefile for more details

If you see the outputs like below ... 👇 Congratulations, deploy is successful 👍

Testing

Let's test the API endpoint. Run below command (replace the apigateway_id with the output you got above)

curl -X POST "http://{apigateway_id}.execute-api.localhost.localstack.cloud:4566/local/api?name=Localstack" -H "content-type: application/json"

If your result is like below, then congratulations ! it works as expected.

you could also use tools like POSTMAN to test it.

Cleanup

make destroy
localstack stop

TODO

CDK implementation
CI/CD CodePipeline
Make a more practical demo of Golang project
