lambda: Node 22

[w3nl]

Describe the feature

Node 22 is now the active LTS version.
Node 20 is already is already in maintenance mode.
Node 18 is still in maintenance mode, but will end-of-life in 6 months.
https://github.com/nodejs/Release

So I hope I can upgrade soon my AWS lambda functions also to Node 22.

Use Case

import { Runtime } from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda'
import { NodejsFunction } from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-lambda-nodejs'

new NodejsFunction(this, 'Example', {
    runtime: Runtime.NODEJS_22_X
})

Node.js 22 runtime support is yet to be supported by Lambda:

Also refer AWS Lambda > Supported runtimes.

This feature request for CDK could be implemented once Lambda supports Node.js 22.x runtime.

Lambda always release the Node.js runtime after the Node.js project releases a new LTS version, hopefully it be released soon.

The EOL is also extended in AWS compared with that of Node.js, it starts 3 months after the Node.js EOL and is documented here
