npm install --save-dev gulp-aws-lambda
var lambda_params = {
FunctionName : 'MyFunctionName',
Handler : 'index.handler',
Role : 'arn:aws:iam:xxxxxx',
Runtime : 'nodejs',
Description : 'Assign a meaningful description as you see fit',
MemorySize : 128,
Timeout : 10,

If FunctionName do not exist in AWS Lambda console, it will create a new one for you.
var gulp = require('gulp');
var zip = require('gulp-zip');
var aws_lambda = require('gulp-aws-lambda');
var lambda_params = { FunctionName : 'MyFunctionName' };
var aws_credentials = {
accessKeyId : '',
secretAccessKey : '',
region : '',
};
gulp.task('deploy',function(){
gulp.src(['dist/index.js'])
.pipe(zip('archive.zip'))
.pipe(aws_lambda(aws_credentials, lambda_params))
});
