Want to reduce chafing when using Sails actions inside of AWS Lambda? Baggywrinkle is the answer!

Baggywrinkle builds a modified version of a machine that proxies its inputs from the Lambda function's event argument, and proxies its exits through the Lambda function's callback. It is intended to be used with Lambda functions that are triggered via the AWS API Gateway (that is, via HTTP requests).

$ npm install baggywrinkle --save

Usage

var lambdaFunction = require('baggywrinkle')(actionMachine);

Example

// handler.js
var asLambda = require('baggywrinkle');

module.exports = asLambda({
  inputs: {
    name: {
      example: 'Joe',
      description: 'The person to greet'
    }
  },
  exits: {
    success: {
      statusCode: 200,
      description: 'Greeting was successful!'
    }
  }
  fn: function (inputs, exits) {
    return exits.success(`Hello ${inputs.name}!`);
  }
});

Note that the input to Baggywrinkle can be either:
