Articles, notes and random thoughts on Software Development and Technology
I’ve finally reached a point where I have a complete end to end Sudoku generator, a human puzzle grader, and an updated React frontend to load generated puzzles. The integration with the solver is still there. The latest version is deployed here: http://sudoku-solver.kevinhooke.com/.
I’ve plenty of material to share from this journey, so more posts to come soon.
If you have multiple aws cli profiles configured to work with multiple sets of credentials, you can tell the serverless cli which profile to use with either:
export AWS_PROFILE="profileName2"
or
serverless deploy --aws-profile profilename
This is covered in the docs here.
If you invoke a Lambda and include the —log-type Tail param, you’ll get a bunch of encoded output like:
{
"StatusCode": 200,
"LogResult": "MDIxLTA3LTE4IDAzOjAzOjU...
To decode it to readable output, you need to pipe it into a base64 util to decode, like:
aws lambda invoke local --region us-west-1 --function-name your-function-name --log-type Tail | base64 -d
This is covered in the docs here.
‘aws lambda list-functions’ returns function details in your current region, but the info is sometimes too verbose when you’re looking for a list of names:
{
"Functions": [
{
"FunctionName": "example1",
"FunctionArn": "arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111:function:example1",
"Runtime": "java8",
"Role": "arn:aws:iam::111111111:role/example-role",
"Handler": "package.YourHandler::myHandler",
"CodeSize": 3381385,
"Description": "",
"Timeout": 6,
"MemorySize": 1024,
"LastModified": "2021-01-13T08:18:33.727+0000",
"CodeSha256": "aaabbbccc=",
"Version": "$LATEST",
"TracingConfig": {
"Mode": "PassThrough"
},
"RevisionId": "aa-bb-cc-dd"
},
{
"FunctionName": "example2",
"FunctionArn": "arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:111111111:function:example2",
"Runtime": "java8",
"Role": "arn:aws:iam::111111111:role/example-role",
"Handler": "package.YourHandler2::myHandler",
"CodeSize": 3381385,
"Description": "",
"Timeout": 6,
"MemorySize": 1024,
"LastModified": "2021-01-13T08:18:33.727+0000",
"CodeSha256": "aaabbbccc=",
"Version": "$LATEST",
"TracingConfig": {
"Mode": "PassThrough"
},
"RevisionId": "aa-bb-cc-dd"
}
]
}
Passing this into JQ you can filter to display any of the properties easily with patterns like:
aws lambda list-functions | jq '.Functions[].FunctionName
