Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

This repo contains the fix to support windows environments

Existing package generates error on windows environment described here

https://github.com/awslabs/aws-serverless-express/issues/109

Error: server error. Error: listen EACCES /tmp/server0.sock

Install

npm install @techfirst/aws-serverless-express

Readme

Run serverless applications and REST APIs using your existing Node.js application framework, on top of AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway. The sample provided allows you to easily build serverless web applications/services and RESTful APIs using the Express framework.

Getting Started

npm install aws-serverless-express
// lambda.js
'use strict';
const awsServerlessExpress = require('aws-serverless-express');
const app = require('./app');
const server = awsServerlessExpress.createServer(app);

exports.handler = (event, context) =>
  awsServerlessExpress.proxy(server, event, context);

Package and create your Lambda function, then configure a simple proxy API using Amazon API Gateway and integrate it with your Lambda function.

Quick Start/Example

Want to get up and running quickly? Check out our example which includes:

Getting the API Gateway event object

This package includes middleware to easily get the event object Lambda receives from API Gateway

const awsServerlessExpressMiddleware = require('aws-serverless-express/middleware');
app.use(awsServerlessExpressMiddleware.eventContext());
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
  res.json(req.apiGateway.event);
});

Is AWS serverless right for my app?

Pros

Cons

  • For apps that may not see traffic for several minutes at a time, you could see cold starts
  • Cannot use native libraries (aka Addons) unless you package your app on an EC2 machine running Amazon Linux
  • Stateless only
  • API Gateway has a timeout of 30 seconds, and Lambda has a maximum execution time of 5 minutes.
