fliteral v1.1.0

Function literal runner

A small Node app to run function literals, largely compatible with AWS Lambda + web gateway.

Use it for testing, or use it on your own server.

Do not allow untrusted code to run on your infrastructure. These are not sandboxed in any way.

Literals

These are really just Node modules with a standardised API. A literal consists of a folder, a package.json and an export.

Sample literal to echo response back to sender:

module.exports = {
  handler: (event, context, callback) => {
    callback(null, {
      statusCode: '200',
      headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
      body: JSON.stringify(event),
    });
  }
}

Usage

Run on the command line as follows:

LITERAL_PATH=foo fliteral

This will open the default HTTP port (see below), and any requests to http://myserver/* will run & return the literal named *.
