lambda-expressless v1.7.2

lambda-expressless

Wrap AWS Lambda functions with Express-like functions to simplify your code

So instead of writing this:

exports.handler = (event, context, callback) => {
  const requestBody = JSON.parse(event.body);
  const responseBody = {
    success: false,
    data: requestBody.id
  };

  callback(null, {
    statusCode: 201,
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify(responseBody)
  });
}

you'll have this:

const { use } = require('lambda-expressless');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');

exports.handler = use(bodyParser.json(), (req, res) => {
  res.status(201).json({
    success: false,
    data: req.body.id
  })
});

You can also use multiple middlewares for a single handler:

const { use } = require('lambda-expressless');

const checkUser = (req, res, next) => {
  if (req.get('Authorization') === 'someToken') {
    next()
  } else {
    req.status(403).end('Forbidden');
  }
};

const getUser = (req, res) => {
  res.json({
    id: '12',
    name: 'Murat'
  });
};

exports.handler = use(checkUser, getUser);

TypeScript example:

import { use, Request, Response } from 'lambda-expressless';
import * as bodyParser from "body-parser";

const addUser = (req: Request, res: Response, next: Function) => {
  UserService.add(req.body);

  // add user
  res.json({success: true});
};

export const handler = use(
  bodyParser.json(),
  addUser
);

You can use many popular Express Middlewares. Some tested examples are:

• body-parser

Contribution

Every contribution is very welcome. Keep these in your mind when you want to make a contribution:

1. Because of we use semantic-release you need to use Angular Commit Message Conventions in your commit messages.
2. Keep code coverage 100% with your updated tests.
3. Check your changes with a Lambda environment. You can use SAM-CLI to test on your local.
4. Don't forget to update documentation(this readme file) about your changes.
