Mysql2 Lambda Gem

Very simple Mysql2 gem precompiled for Amazon Linux 1 & 2 (Ruby 2.5 & 2.7) with statically linked libmysqlclient ready for any AWS Lambda usage, including Rails. Add it to your Gemfile:

# When using Rails.
gem 'mysql2-lambda'

# When NOT using Rails.
gem 'mysql2-lambda', require: 'mysql2'

Part of a suite of open source projects from Lamby: Simple Rails & AWS Lambda Integration using Rack. Details include:

• Tested on Ruby 2.5.x & 2.7.x
• Small Size! Only 5 Megabytes. No Lambda Layers needed!
• Works with any MySQL connection. Including RDS Proxy.

Methodology

We used the amazon/aws-sam-cli-build-image-ruby2.5 Docker image from the SAM CLI project to build the MySQL Connector/C's libmysqlclient. From there we ensure the Mysql2 gem statically includes that library. The resulting packaged gem and mysql2.so file looks something like this.

$ ldd mysql2.so
  linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007ffcb15d4000)
  libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007fa8ebd21000)
