@barchart/aws-lambda-suppressor v1.2.6

@barchart/aws-lambda-suppressor

A public JavaScript package for tracking and suppressing duplicate invocations of AWS Lambda Functions.

Workflow

• Each Lambda invocation includes an event object.
• Depending on the event source, a unique identifier can usually be extracted.
• The DynamoMessageValidator saves these unique identifiers to DynamoDB (using a conditional writes).
• Failure indicates another Lambda has already processed the same event and processing should be suppressed.

Usage

This package is typically used with a simple framework found in the @barchart/common-node-js library.

• First, instantiate a LambdaEventValidator and add a DynamoMessageValidator instance.
• Then, plug the LambdaEventValidator into your LambdaHelper by overriding its getValidator function.
