http-lambda-proxy

http-lambda-proxy

Proxy HTTP requests to AWS Lambda.

Requests format is compatible with the serverless-http module, allowing developers to run full featured REST/HTTP services as lambda funtions.

Install

npm i http-lambda-proxy

Usage

The following examples describe how to use http-lambda-proxy with restana:

const lambdaProxy = require('http-lambda-proxy')
const proxy = lambdaProxy({
  target: process.env.FUNCTION_NAME,
  region: process.env.AWS_REGION
})

const service = require('restana')()
service.all('/*', (req, res) => { 
  proxy(req, res, req.url, {}))
}) 

service.start(8080)

In this example, we proxy all http requests on port 8080 to an AWS Lambda.

API

clientContext

Proxying

proxy(
  originReq,                          // http.IncomingMessage 
  originRes,                          // http.ServerResponse
  req.url,                            // Request URL
  {}                                  // Options described below
)

Options

onResponse(req, res, response)

Called when the remote lambda response is received. If defined, default behavior is overwritten.

rewriteHeaders(headers)

Called to rewrite the headers of the response, before them being copied over to the outer response. It must return the new headers object.

Supported response formats

The following alternatives describe the supported response formats:

• Ideally, your lambda function is implemented using the serverless-http module
• Your lambda respond using a JSON Payload with the following format:

  {
    "headers": {
      // ...
    },
    "statusCode": 200,
    "body": // ...
  }
  

• Your lambda respond with a JSON Payload:

  exports.handler = async function () {
    return JSON.stringify({})
  }
