  • Testing Serverless Applications on AWS

    Adding the is-test flag to our object metadata gave us our way of passing some kind of test context into our workload. The next step was to make the Lambda Function capable of discovering the context and then using that to control how it behaves under test. For this we used Middy.

    I also decided to use the middy library to add CORS management to our lambda function. This will allow us to call our lambda function from our frontend, without having to worry about CORS.

    This function uses the Middy middleware engine to handle unhandled errors and add CORS headers in the response.
  • Ask HN: What would be your stack if you are building an MVP today?

    I mean I'm literally building an AWS lambda function that outputs HTML when it's called via API Gateway. So someone hits https://mydomain.com/mycoolpage, then the MyCoolPage AWS Lambda function is executed and outputs whatever.

    If you're interested, I use https://middy.js.org/ as a middleware engine for my AWS lambda functions which I find helpful.

    I use the open sourced serverless framework for doing deploys https://www.serverless.com/

    middy for lambda-side middleware
  • How to Securely Use Secrets in AWS Lambda?
    2 projects | dev.to | 9 Oct 2022
    That is it from the CDK side. Now let us create the handler and retrieve that secret. I like to use middy which describes itself as "stylish Node.js middleware engine for AWS Lambda". It offers some helpful middlewares like ssm which will help us retrieve and cache values from SSM Parameter Store. (Middy provides various other official middlewares including one for Secrets Manager.) I prefer a middleware for this because it keeps the code for retrieving the secret out of your handler which should deal with actual business logic.
  • Lambda Powertools TypeScript is Generally Available
    6 projects | dev.to | 19 Jul 2022
    So what's changed in the beta? A glance at the CHANGELOG suggests the answer is that not very much has changed in six months. Lambda Powertools TypeScript still supports class decorators, middy, and a manual API. It still covers the core capabilities of logging, metrics and tracing, and no new capabilities have been added. Outside of some bug fixes and optimization, this is still very much the library I previewed back in January.

    If you use Javascript, check out the Middy middleware engine for use with Lambda. It has a lot of nice middlewares that handle the boring boilerplate of your Lambda functions. One is the cors middleware, which automatically adds CORS headers to your functions.
  • First Look at Lambda Powertools TypeScript
    11 projects | dev.to | 10 Jan 2022
    I'm a big fan of TypeScript and in fact co-authored a book about it. I don't find myself using Java or Python much, so while I've been interested in Lambda Powertools, I never tried it out until now. Lambda Powertools TypeScript joins middy and DAZN Lambda Powertools in the Lambda tooling space for the Node.js runtime. Two things that differentiate Lambda Powertools TypeScript from comparable libraries are it is sponsored by AWS and it supports decorators.

    The next natural step was to look at middleware such as Middy to decorate the main business logic, and allow these tasks to be defined once and used consistently. I remember listening to a Comic Relief talk about their Lambda wrapper back in 2019. Since then, I was introduced by Yan Cui to DAZN Lambda Powertools, which was the inspiration for this new project.

    Nevertheless, log files are an important resource to debug problems and to get deeper insights into the behavior of a serverless system. Every logged detail might help to identify issues and to fix bugs and problems. Structured logging is important as log files can be analyzed much easier (e.g. with AWS CloudWatch Insights) which will save time and engineering costs. The dazn-lambda-powertools library provides a logger that supports structured logging for Node.js, the AWS Lambda Powertools offer the same for Python and Java.
