Getting Started

The open source project Birme Lambda provides a quick way to run code initiated by an HTTP request. Upload a zip file with Javascript / Typescript code that you want to execute.

Prerequisites

• If you have not already done so, sign up for an OSC account.

Step 1: Create a Lambda instance

Click on the button "Create lambda" in the web user interface.

Enter the name of the lambda, for example guide. When created the Lambda is available at https://<tenant>-guide.birme-lambda.auto.prod.osaas.io where <tenant> is the id of your tenant.

Step 2: Create a sample application

Create a sample application with the following code in a file called index.js:

exports.handler = async (event) => {
  console.log(event);
  const res = {
    body: {
      message: 'hello world'
    }
  };
  return res;
}

Package the file in a zip file

% zip example.zip index.js 

Step 3: Upload sample application

Upload the zip file to the server (using curl for example)

% curl -v -F upload=@example.zip -H 'Authorization: Bearer <SAT>' https://<tenant>-guide.birme-lambda.auto.prod.osaas.io/upload

Replace <SAT> with the service access token. See documentation on how to acquire the service access token.

Step 4: Run sample application

To run the sample application you send an HTTP request to the /event endpoint, e.g.

% curl -v -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{ "hej": "hopp" }' https://eyevinn-test.birme-lambda.auto.prod.osaas.io/event
{"message":"hello world"}
