Currency Converter

This project provides a simple implementation of a currency converter deployed using AWS Lambda and Terraform. It is designed for practicing DevOps workflows.

Features

• Currency conversion using real-time exchange rates.
• AWS Lambda function triggered by API Gateway.
• Terraform scripts to deploy the infrastructure.

Prerequisites

• AWS account.
• Terraform installed.
• AWS CLI configured.

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/Bryan-Campuzano/Currency-Converter.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd Currency-Converter

3. Initialize Terraform:

   terraform init

4. Deploy the infrastructure:

   terraform apply

Usage

After deployment, the Lambda function can be accessed via the generated API Gateway URL. You can send currency conversion requests using the following format:

curl -X GET "https://your-api-gateway-url/convert?from=USD&to=EUR&amount=100"

Cleanup

To remove the infrastructure, run:

terraform destroy
