Serverless Scheduled Boilerplate

Want to run a lambda function in a scheduled(Cron Job) manner? here's the boilerplate for it.

Want to run a function to check weather and send an email every 10 minutes? or any sort of scehduled function?

What's the catch here ?

Its very simple to create scheduled events with Serverless AWS Stack.

Its simple as configuring the below in the serverless.yml.

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs4.3

functions:
  run:
    handler: handler.run
    events:
      - schedule: rate(1 minute)

- schedule: rate(1 minute) <- This is where the magic happens. 

You can set the rate according to the standards. Take a look at the AWS schedule syntax documentation for more details.(http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/events/ScheduledEvents.html)
