Project: Processing JSON Files from S3 with SQS and Lambda

This project sets up an AWS infrastructure using Terraform to process JSON files added to an S3 bucket. When a JSON file is uploaded to the bucket, an event is sent to an SQS queue. A Lambda function, written in TypeScript, consumes the messages from the SQS queue, reads the content of the JSON file from S3, and processes it as needed.

Ensure that your AWS credentials are configured. You can use aws configure or set environment variables:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="YOUR_ACCESS_KEY"
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="YOUR_SECRET_KEY"
export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION="region"

Install Lambda Dependencies and Generate the Zip File

Run the script to compile the TypeScript code and create the lambda.zip file:

./scripts/build_lambda.sh

Initialize Terraform

terraform init

Review the Terraform Plan

terraform plan

Apply the Terraform Configurations

terraform apply

Type yes when prompted to confirm the creation of the resources.
