lambada

Create more passionate AWS Lambda functions using clojure.

Current version:

Clojars Project

Usage

You can define a Lambda handler using the deflambdafn macro provided by uswitch.lambada.core:

(ns example.lambda
  (:require [uswitch.lambada.core :refer [deflambdafn]]))

(deflambdafn example.lambda.MyLambdaFn
  [in out ctx]
  (println "OMG I'm running in the cloud!!!111oneone"))

When this namespace is AOT compiled, it will generate a class called example.lambda.MyLambdaFn that implements the AWS Lambda RequestStreamHandler interface using the args and body provided.

Simplest way to deploy is to create an uberjar using leiningen or boot and then use that as the JAR you upload to AWS Lambda. Assuming you have an uberjar called my-lambda-project.jar in target, the following commands will do the job:

$ aws lambda create-function \
    --region eu-west-1 \
    --function-name my-lambda-project \
    --zip-file fileb://$(pwd)/target/my-lambda-project.jar \
    --role arn:aws:iam::YOUR-AWS-ACCOUNT-ID:role/lambda_basic_execution \
    --handler example.lambda.MyLambdaFn \
    --runtime java8 \
    --timeout 15 \
    --memory-size 512
...

$ aws lambda invoke \
    --invocation-type RequestResponse \
    --function-name my-lambda-project \
    --region eu-west-1 \
    --log-type Tail \
    --payload '{"some":"input"}' \
    outfile.txt
...

See example for an example project.
