Ts-lambda-kit NPM

`ts-lambda-kit`

A quick-start kit to Build REST API's using Typescript, AWS Lambda & SAM CLI.

By running single command, you will get a production-ready TypeScript lambda application and fully configured on your machine. Our goal is to provide you with a very cool, opinionated architecture. It will provide you with things like generic functionalities for the lambda function and cool request handling support with Amazon API Gateway, AWS CloudFormation, and Amazon DynamoDB.

It makes things very easy when the question comes with build, and deploy. It has a strong focus on making sure everything is developer-friendly.

Requirements:

Node.js - Install Node.js 18
NPM
TypeScript
Git
SAM CLI - Install the SAM CLI
Docker - Install Docker community edition optional.

Quick Installation

To create a project, simply run:

npx ts-lambda-kit <project-name>

🥇 Cool! You are ready to make your amazing product.

Architecture

This project contains source code and supporting files for a serverless application that you can deploy with the SAM CLI. It includes the following files and folders.

src - Code for the application's Lambda function written in TypeScript.
events - Invocation events that you can use to invoke the function.
__tests__ - Unit tests for the application code.
serverless.yml - A template that defines the application's AWS resources.

The application uses several AWS resources, including Lambda functions and an API Gateway API. These resources are defined in the serverless.yaml file in this project. You can update the template to add AWS resources through the same deployment process that updates your application code.

Developer Guide

install awscliv2, aws-sam-cli, nodejs 18 (and make only for macOS and Linux) on your machine and ensure that your aws iam account is configured. the configuration profile should be located at ~/.aws/config, access credentials should be located at ~/.aws/credentials.

To build and deploy your application for the first time, run the following commands in your shell using makefile (only for macOS and Linux):

make install
make build

Before deployment, open the Makefile and add your AWS-configured profile name at the profile variable.

Wait, you may try this command on your terminal to check what is the name of your aws-configured profile:

aws configure list-profiles

Let's make it live:

make deploy

The 2nd command will build the source of your application. The 3rd command will package and deploy your application to AWS, with a series of prompts:

Stack Name: The name of the stack to deploy to CloudFormation. This should be unique to your account and region, and a good starting point would be something matching your project name.
AWS Region: The AWS region you want to deploy your app to.
Confirm changes before deploy: If set to yes, any change sets will be shown to you before execution for manual review. If set to no, the AWS SAM CLI will automatically deploy application changes.
Allow SAM CLI IAM role creation: Many AWS SAM templates, including this example, create AWS IAM roles required for the AWS Lambda function(s) included to access AWS services. By default, these are scoped down to minimum required permissions. To deploy an AWS CloudFormation stack which creates or modifies IAM roles, the CAPABILITY_IAM value for capabilities must be provided. If permission isn't provided through this prompt, to deploy this example you must explicitly pass --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM to the sam deploy command.
Save arguments to samconfig.toml: If set to yes, your choices will be saved to a configuration file inside the project, so that in the future you can just re-run sam deploy without parameters to deploy changes to your application.
