Introduction

porkDyn 🐷 is a Dynamic DNS (DDNS) Updater for https://porkbun.com, written in Rust.

Prerequisites

• Rust
• Cargo Lambda

Building

To build the project for production, run cargo lambda build --release. Remove the --release flag to build for development.

Read more about building your lambda function in the Cargo Lambda documentation.

Testing

You can run regular Rust unit tests with cargo test.

If you want to run integration tests locally, you can use the cargo lambda watch and cargo lambda invoke commands to do it.

First, run cargo lambda watch to start a local server. When you make changes to the code, the server will automatically restart.

Second, you'll need a way to pass the event data to the lambda function.

You can use the existent event payloads in the Rust Runtime repository if your lambda function is using one of the supported event types.

You can use those examples directly with the --data-example flag, where the value is the name of the file in the lambda-events repository without the example_ prefix and the .json extension.

cargo lambda invoke --data-example apigw-request

For generic events, where you define the event data structure, you can create a JSON file with the data you want to test with. For example:

{
  "command": "test"
}

Then, run cargo lambda invoke --data-file ./data.json to invoke the function with the data in data.json.

For HTTP events, you can also call the function directly with cURL or any other HTTP client. For example:

curl https://localhost:9000

Read more about running the local server in the Cargo Lambda documentation for the watch command. Read more about invoking the function in the Cargo Lambda documentation for the invoke command.

Deploying

To deploy the project, run cargo lambda deploy. This will create an IAM role and a Lambda function in your AWS account.

Read more about deploying your lambda function in the Cargo Lambda documentation.
