Lambada (Alpha)

A simple way to work with AWS Lambda projects in Python. Heavily inspired and copied from https://github.com/nficano/python-lambda

Installation

$ pip install lambada-again

Basic Usage

A basic lambda without dependencies.

$ tree

├── config.base.yaml    # Base configuration file
└── config.py           # Handler
└── service.py          # Handler

Init

$ lambada init

Run

$ lambada run 
$ lambada run  -n lambda-name

If there is more than one lambda it shows options from where to chose.

Invoke remotely

$ lambada invoke
$ lambada invoke -n lambda-name

Deploy lambdas and layers

$ lambada deploy (deploy all)
$ lambada deploy -n name
$ lambada deploy -c config.qa.yaml
$ lambada deploy -c config.prod.yaml

If there is a layer associated to the lambda in the config.yaml without a version specified it will update it with the last one.

Update lambda configuration

$ lambada update-config
$ lambada update-config -c config.qa.yaml
$ lambada update-config -c config.prod.yaml

If there is a layer associated to the lambda in the config.yaml without a version specified it will update it with the last one.

Build

$ lambada build

It will create a zip file in the ./dist directory

File structure

We need to have a configuration file and a main file to call.

With multiples configuration files

$ tree

├── config.yaml
├── config.qa.yaml
├── config.prod.yaml
├── requirements.txt
└── service.py

We can have parent-child configurations

The configuration files needs to have the same name. It will build only the requirements.txt at the lambda directory.

$ tree

├── requirements.txt
├── lambda-A
│   ├── README.md
│   ├── requirements.txt
│   └── service.py
├── lambda-B
│   ├── README.md
│   ├── requirements.txt
│   └── service.py
├── config.yaml
├── config.prod.yaml
├── requirements.txt
└── README.md

And we need to execute the commands in the parent directory and specify the name of the lambda with -n.

$ lambada run -n lambda-A
$ lambada deploy -n lambda-A -c config.prod.yaml
$ lambada invoke -n lambda-A -c config.prod.yaml

How to use it

Run locally

$ lambada run [-n lambda name] [-c configuration file]
$ lambada run
$ lambada run -n lambda-name

Configuration

Event test file (optional)

You can test the lambda locally passing an event input defined in the configuration file as:

# path to file.property
test_event: event.input

This will look for the event.py file in the lambda directory and get the input property from it.

lambda-directory$ cat event.py
input = {'test': 'test'}
Layers (optional)

If we define a local module as a layer it will load the layer so we can call it from our lambda.

layers:
  - layer-name

We need to have the dependencies installed in our local virtual environment.

Environment vars

You can pass and override environment variables in the config.yaml using the -e option.

$ lambada run -e var1=value1 -e var2=value2

Invoke remotly

$ lambada invoke [-n lambda name] [-c configuration file]
$ lambada invoke
$ lambada invoke -n lambda-name

Build

It will bundle all the dependencies and create a dist directory with the zip file.

$ lambada build [-n lambda name] [-c configuration file]
$ lambada build
$ lambada build -n lambda-name

Configuration

Requirements (optional)

If there is a requirements file specified it will install the packages locally

requirements: requirements.txt
Directories (optional)

By default it will add only the directories specified in the directories section.

directories                 
  - src
Files (optional) (default= all files + main file - directories)

By default it will add all the files. You can specify which ones in the files section.

files:                      # Files we want to include in the root directoy 
  - config.py

Symlink

It will copy the symlink into the bundle.

Deploy

It will create or update the Lambda and deploy the zipfile created in the build step into AWS.

$ lambada deploy [-n name] [-c configuration file]

Deploy all

$ lambada deploy

Deploy one lambda/layer

$ lambada deploy -n name

Choose configuration file

$ lambada deploy -c config.file.yaml

Configuration

These values are required in the configuration file

name: lambda-function-name
description: Description
region: us-east-1
main_file: service.py
handler: handler
runtime: python3.6
role: lambda_basic_execution

aws_access_key_id: access_key_id
aws_secret_access_key: secret_access_key

Default values

main_file: service.py
handler: handler
runtime: python3.6
role: lambda_basic_execution

Environment variables

environment_variables:
  DB: 'postgresql://postgres:@localhost:5432/template'

Security groups and Subnets

security_group_ids:
  - sg-123456789

subnet_ids:
  - subnet-a123456789
  - subnet-b123456789

Alias

alias: dev

Layers

layers:
  - ../lib/config.yaml
  - name-of-the-layer

Info

It will print the lambda information

$ lambada info [-n lambda name] [-c configuration file]
$ lambada info
$ lambada info -n lambda-name

Update configuration

It will update the lambda configuration. Useful if we did only configuration changes.

$ lambada update_config [-n lambda name] [-c configuration file]
$ lambada update_config
$ lambada update_config -n lambda-name

Configuration file example

$ cat config.base.yaml
lambdas:
  base:
    abstract: True
    region: us-east-1
    runtime: python3.6
    role: lambda-role
    main_file: service.py
    handler: handler
    # path to file.property
    test_event: event.input

    security_group_ids:
      - sg-12345

    subnet_ids:
      - subnet-1
      - subnet-2

  lambda-test:
    parent: base
    name: function name test
    description: function description
    path: './lambda-test'

    environment_variables:
      DB: 'postgresql://postgres:@localhost:5432/template'
      TEST: 'test'

    directories                 # Directories we want to deploy
      - src

    files:                      # Files we want to include that are in the root directoy 
      - config.py

    # We can specify a local layer or a remote layer
    layers:
      - layer-1

layers:
  layer-1:
    name: layer-1
    runtime: python3.6
    description: Layer-1
    requirements: requirements.txt
    path: layer
$ cat config.yaml
aws_access_key_id: access_key_id
aws_secret_access_key: secret_access_key

parent: config.base.yaml

Layers

We can also build, deploy, update and get info on layers.

Lambda

We can define a layer dependency inside a lambda in two ways.

We can specify the name of the layer:

layers:
  - name-of-the-layer

By default it will set up the last version of the layer.

You can specify a different like this:

layers:
  - name-of-the-layer,3

Configuration file example

The main difference is the is_layer propertiy is set to true.

name: layer_name
description: Description
is_layer: true
region: us-east-1
main_file: service.py
handler: handler
runtime: python3.6

requirements: requirements.txt
files:
  - utils.py

directories: 
  - lib

aws_access_key_id: access_key_id
aws_secret_access_key: secret_access_key
