@qrvey/function-gateway v1.0.8

@qrvey/function-gateway

The @qrvey/function-gateway package provides a unified interface for invoking lambda and REST functions based on the specific configurations of the service.

Installation

You can install the package using npm or yarn:

npm install @qrvey/function-gateway

Or with yarn:

yarn add @qrvey/function-gateway

Note: If the application does not have @aws-sdk/client-lambda installed, it must be installed manually. @qrvey/function-gateway requires it to make Lambda invoke calls.

Conditions for Lambda or REST call

The function gateway in the @qrvey/function-gateway package can invoke functions either as a Lambda function or as a REST API call, depending on certain conditions. These conditions are determined by:

1. REST Invocation:

   • If the environment variable PLATFORM_TYPE is set to 'CONTAINER' and the function mapping contains a REST configuration.
   • If the options.mappingType parameter is explicitly set to 'rest'.

2. Lambda Invocation:

   • If the options.mappingType parameter is explicitly set to 'lambda'.
   • In the absence of options.mappingType being specified, the function gateway will default to Lambda invocation unless there is a REST configuration and no Lambda configuration.

Usage Example

const { FunctionGatewayService } = require("@qrvey/function-gateway");
const mapper = require("./fnGwMapping");

class MyFunctionGateway extends FunctionGatewayService {
  getInfoById(id) {
    const headers: {
        'x-api-key': 'my-api-key'
    }
    const params = { headers, dataId: id };
    return MyFunctionGateway.invoke("getData", params, mapper);
  }
}

const myFunctionGw = new MyFunctionGateway();
myFunctionGw
  .getInfoById("my_id")
  .then((res) => {
    // Handle successful result
    console.log(JSON.parse(res.Payload));
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    // Handle errors
    console.log(error);
  });

API

Class

FunctionGatewayService

Function

static invoke(functionName: string, params: unknown, functionMapping: IFunctionMapping, options: IFunctionOptions): Promise<any>

• functionName: The name of the function to invoke.
• params: Parameters to be provided to the corresponding property in the functionMapping definition.
• functionMapping: An object that maps function names to function implementations.
• options: An object containing additional options for invoking the function.
• Returns: A promise that resolves with the result of the invoked function or rejects with an error if the invocation fails.

functionMapping param

Defines the mapping of function names to their corresponding implementations.

Example

This example demonstrates how to configure both a Lambda function and a REST API call:

const mapper = {
    // Define a mapping for a function named 'getData'
    getData: (param) => {
        return {
            // Configuration for a Lambda invocation
            lambda: {
                // [required] The name of the Lambda function
                name: process.env.SERVER_PREFIX + '_getDataFunction',
                // [required] The payload to send to the Lambda function
                payload: {
                    headers: param.headers,
                    method: 'get', // HTTP method for the request
                    body: {
                        pathParameters: {
                            dataID: param.dataID, // Parameters to pass to the Lambda function
                        },
                    },
                },
                // [optional]
                options: {
                    asHttp: false,
                    //invocationParams defines the additional params to be passed in lambda.invoke call
                    invocationParams: {
                        Qualifier: 'my_lambda_alias' //should be the name of the property used in lambda.invoke of @aws-sdk/client-lambda library
                    },
                },
                // A callback function to handle the Lambda response
                callback: (res) => {
                    const responseObj = JSON.parse(res.Payload);
                    return responseObj.data; // Extracting and returning the data from the response
                },
            },
            // Configuration for REST API invocation
            rest: {
                // The URL for the REST API call
                endpoint: `/api/service-data/${param.dataID}`,
                // The HTTP method for the request
                method: 'get',
                // Additional options for the REST API call
                options: {
                    baseDomain: process.env.API_DOMAIN,
                    headers: param.headers, // Headers to include in the request
                },
            },
        };
    }
};
