cloud-js-httpserver

Serverless REST API on AWS

A simple REST API that counts the number of times a route has been hit.

Deploying and running the program

Note: some values in this example will be different from run to run. These values are indicated with ***.

1. Create a new stack:

   $ pulumi stack init count-api-testing

2. Set the provider and region for AWS:

   $ pulumi config set cloud:provider aws
   $ pulumi config set aws:region us-west-2
   

3. Restore NPM modules via npm install or yarn install.

4. Run pulumi up to preview and deploy changes:

   $ pulumi up
   Previewing update of stack 'count-api-testing'
   ...
   
   Updating stack 'count-api-testing'
   Performing changes:
   
       Type                                      Name                                 Status      Info

   +   └─ cloud:table:Table                      counterTable                         created
   +      └─ aws:dynamodb:Table                  counterTable                         created
   
       ---outputs:---
       endpoint: "https://zxvi8hpmak.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/stage/"
   
   info: 15 changes performed:
       + 15 resources created
   Update duration: 32.322463714s
   

5. View the endpoint URL and curl a few routes:

   $ pulumi stack output
   Current stack outputs (1):
       OUTPUT            VALUE
       endpoint          https://***.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/stage/
   
   $ curl $(pulumi stack output endpoint)/hello
   {"route":"/hello","count":1}
   $ curl $(pulumi stack output endpoint)/hello
   {"route":"/hello","count":2}
   $ curl $(pulumi stack output endpoint)/woohoo
   {"route":"/woohoo","count":1}

6. To view the runtime logs of the Lambda function, use the pulumi logs command. To get a log stream, use pulumi logs --follow.

Clean up

1. Run pulumi destroy to tear down all resources.

2. To delete the stack itself, run pulumi stack rm. Note that this command deletes all deployment history from the Pulumi console.
