api_with_terraform demonstrates how to deploy lambda code as a service to API gateway.
By following the steps below you will cause example_handler
in lambda_handlers/example/lambda to respond to a request at <aws_url>/example_path/example_stage/
- AWS profile and account
- Credentials added to ~/.aws/credentials
- edit main.tf profile to point at name in ~/.aws/credentials
setting up Terraform:
For an easier install I like to move the Terraform executable to /usr/local/bin/
which is on my PATH. You will know it is installed correctly when you can run,
% terraform -v 127 ↵
Terraform v0.12.18
Package your new lambda into a build.zip file,
python package_lambda.py example
Set up Terraform in your lambda directory,
cd lambda_handlers/example
- Run
terraform init
See changes Terraform wants to run:
terraform plan
Deploy your endpoint:
terraform apply
Destroy your deployed resources:
terraform destroy
