AWS Serverless Example

This repository is about an article series I wrote on medium.com.

• Part 1: Create a simple API and ship it to AWS (GitHub Branch)
• Part 2: Create a DynamoDB table and store data (GitHub Branch)
• Part 3 (tbd): Validate incoming images and create thumbnails from them
• Part 4 (tbd): Implement basic usage of Event-Sourcing and create SNS event publisher
• Part 5 (tbd): Create a simple CI/CD pipeline

It should help the readers to get a deeper look into the code I wrote for that article series.

How to run it locally?

How to deploy it on AWS?

• Change config values in package.json (at least AWS_CF_TEMPLATE_S3_BUCKET needs to be set)
• For first-time setup use npm run aws:install
• For further updates use npm run aws:update
• To delete your application and all resources connected with it use npm run aws:uninstall
