AWS Lambda CI

Continuous integration pipeline for aws lambda function

Features

✅ Supports the two famous lambda runtimes python and nodejs.

✅ Supports installing custom packages that does not exist in lambda runtime passed to CI process as a package's descriptor file path in git repository.

✅ Supports installing custom pip/npm dependencies that does not exist in lambda runtime and passed to CI process as a package's descriptor file path, packages.json or requirements.txt.

✅ The integration/deployment process is fast thanks to code and dependencies caching.

✅ The lambda dependencies packages are built in a sandboxed local environment that replicates the live AWS Lambda environment almost identically – including installed software and libraries.

✅ The pipeline does not break the currently published version and traffic shifting between the current and new deployment is seamless.

Demos

Code and dependencies changes

If both code and dependencies changed, the pipeline will publish both changes.

Just code changed

If code changed but not dependencies, the pipeline with publish new code and the dependencies will be left intact.

Nothing changed

If both code and dependencies not changed, the pipeline will not publish anything.
