AWS Python Lambda Deploy Module

Deploy-lambda is a command line tool for maintance of aws python lambda functions. It can backup the current version of a lambda, create a new deployment package, and push it out to an aws account.

You can hook up to existing AWS python lambda functions, no special magic required.

Installation

>>> `python setup.py build`

>>> `(sudo) python setup.py install`

Optionally: install the AWS Cli toolkit if not already installed

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/installing.html

>>> `pip install awscli`

@todo add pip support

Setup

aws cli must be configured with your account credentials by running aws configure

The tool supports multiple aws accounts, choose them with the parameter --profile <profile name>

Example

>>> `list-lambda --profile sandbox` <-- uses a non-default AWS profile.

Look at ~/.aws/credentials for available profile names

Usage

>>> `list-lambda` <-- list current lambda functions in th default account

>>> `deploy-lambda my-lambda-name` <-- backup, package, and deploy the newest local lambda function

>>> `update-lambda my-lambda-name` <-- deploy the newest local lambda function (no backups)

>>> `backup-lambda my-lambda-name` <-- create a local backup of the current remote lambda function

>>> `package-lambda my-lambda-name` <-- build a deployment package (zip) of the newest local lambda function

>>> `metadata-lambda my-lambda-name` <-- pull down metadata config, or update metadata for a function.

call 'deploy-lambda' from the command line, one folder level above the source code

example:

/my-lambda-function <----- one level below me

deploy-lambda my-lambda-function

Recipes

To start using with exiting lambda functions list-lambda backup-lambda myawslambda ... make changes to the code deploy-lambda myawslambda

Notes

The tool expects you to be in the current working directory of your lambda. Everything in the current directory will get packed up.
