Requirements

1. AWS account

2. Docker

Getting Started

Goal

Deploy two serverless services (APIs)

• todo-api - NodeJS 12.x (JavaScript/TypeScript)
  • CRUD app - To keep it simple, we're using an S3 bucket as a database. The contents are saved to the objects' user-defined metadata
• greet-api - Python 3.8
  • Send a name and get a greeting

Both services have dependencies, and we'll use Lambda Layers to meet these dependencies.

1. Clone this repository (or Use as template and then clone)

   $ (home) git clone https://github.com/unfor19/serverless-template.git

2. Use this Docker image

   Image Usage Examples

   • AWS Environment variables

     $ (serverless-template) export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=A123123
     $ (serverless-template) export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=B1232123123
     $ (serverless-template) export AWS_REGION=eu-west-1
