aws-lambda-go VS typescriptify-golang-structs

You can follow this documentation and use the Lambda function template repo here.

The entire solution is built using Go - this includes the Lambda function (using aws-lambda-go library) as well as the complete solution deployment using AWS CDK.

Now, to work with Lambda using go, we have to change the code a little bit and use this official aws tool.

AWS Lambda GitHub Repository - The official GitHub repository for AWS Lambda. It includes examples, guides, and resources specifically for working with Lambda in Go.

You will be using the Go programming language for the business logic (thanks to aws-lambda-go library) as well as the infrastructure component (Go bindings for AWS CDK) to deploy the solution.

In this blog post, you will be using the aws-lambda-go library along with the AWS Go SDK v2 for an application that will process records from an Amazon SNS topic and store them in a DynamoDB table.

The Lambda function is written using the aws-lambda-go library and you will use the Infrastructure-Is-Code paradigm to deploy the solution with AWS CDK (thanks to the Go bindings for AWS CDK)

This blog post is for folks interested in learning how to use Golang and AWS Lambda to build a serverless solution. You will be using the aws-lambda-go library along with the AWS Go SDK v2 for an application that will process records from an Amazon Kinesis data stream and store them in a DynamoDB table. But that's not all! You will also use Go bindings for AWS CDK to implement "Infrastructure-as-code" for the entire solution and deploy it with the AWS CDK CLI.

Now that you have everything you need, let’s create a new project using Go modules for your function. For example, let’s name the module lambda-time. In a new, empty directory, initialize the Go module, and install the AWS Lambda for Go library:

I've used https://github.com/tkrajina/typescriptify-golang-structs and it's worked for me so far, relatively simple so you can be up in minutes.

I have been looking into various ways of doing this properly, including openapi, swagger and grpc, connect-go etc. My conclusion is that these are overkill for this project and that something like https://github.com/tkrajina/typescriptify-golang-structs which generates typescript definitions from go structs, are probably more than enough.

I use this tool to compile go structs to typescript types for integration w frontend

I'm curious if you looked at https://github.com/tkrajina/typescriptify-golang-structs, and if so, what it does that you didn't want.
