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

serverless-offline-direct-lambda

A Serverless Offline plugin that exposes lambdas with no API Gateway event via HTTP, to allow offline direct lambda-to-lambda interactions.

Setup

Note - this requires the plugin 'serverless-offline'.

To include in your project, add the following to the plugins section in serverless.yml:

- serverless-offline-direct-lambda

You may also want to change the port that the plugin runs on - you can do this by specifying the following custom config in your serverless yml file:

custom:
  serverless-offline:
    port: 4000

Running & Calling

To run:

servlerless offline start

(calling the command 'start' is necessary to trigger the plugin, simply running 'serverless online' does not trigger the start hooks).

The plugin will create api-gateway proxies for all lambdas with no triggering events.

You will see output like this:

export AWS_SDK_USED=node

sls offline start

Serverless: Running Serverless Offline with direct lambda support
Serverless: Starting Offline: dev/us-east-1.

Serverless: Routes for myLambda:
Serverless: (none)

Serverless: Routes for my-project-dev-myLambda_proxy:
Serverless: POST /proxy/my-project-dev-myLambda
Serverless: POST /2015-03-31/functions/my-project-dev-myLambda/invocations

Calling via HTTP Post:

The body of the POST should match the JSON data that would ordinarily be passed in a lambda-to-lambda call. i.e.

curl -X POST \
  http://localhost:4000/proxy/my-project-dev-myLambda \
  -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "some-key": "some-value",
    "other-key": false
}'

Invoking the function via the AWS SDK:

You may also invoke the function by using the AWS SDK on your client side... This can be done by specifying a custom "endpoint" in your Lambda configuration like so:

Note: the AWS SDK for NodeJS actually sends a different content type header on it's request to the Lambda API then all the other AWS SDK's (Python, Rails etc).. You will need to export AWS_SDK_USED=node before running the serverless offline if you wish to use this with the NodeJS AWS SDK.


var AWS = require('aws-sdk');
AWS.config.region = 'us-east-1';

let lambda = new AWS.Lambda({
    region: 'us-east-1',
    endpoint: 'http://localhost:4000'
})

var lambda_args = {
    "some-key": "some-value",
    "other-key": false
}

var params = {
    FunctionName: 'my-project-dev-myLambda', // the lambda function we are going to invoke
    Payload: JSON.stringify(lambda_args)
};

lambda.invoke(params, function(err, data) {
    if (err) {
        console.error(err);
    } else {
        console.dir(data);
    }
})
