bubba/aws-lambda-build repository overview

⁠Overview

The AWS Lambda Execution Environment and Available Libraries⁠ documents the current AWS Lambda environment. In order to run native binaries in our Lambda functions, we must ensure they are compiled in a compatible environment.

This Docker image is based on ami-6869aa05 (a.k.a amzn-ami-hvm-2016.03.3.x86_64-gp2) and includes the development tools necessary to build executables.

⁠Requirments

You are going to need Docker⁠ installed. You can find a variety of installation instructions, per operating system, in the Docker Installation Docs⁠. If you haven't used Docker before, take a moment and look through the Docker User Guide⁠.

⁠Pull The Docker Repository

docker pull stechstudio/aws-lambda-build

⁠Yum Repositories

The image uses the same Amazon YUM Repositories that the AMI image would use in EC2.

⁠In the Image

The following libraries are available in the AWS Lambda execution environment, regardless of the supported runtime you use, so you don't need to include them:

• AWS SDK – AWS SDK for JavaScript version 2.45.0
• AWS SDK for Python (Boto 3) version 1.4.4, Botocore version 1.5.43
• Amazon Linux build of java-1.8.0-openjdk for Java.
