The AWS Serverless Application Model (SAM) CLI is an open-source CLI tool that helps you develop serverless applications containing Lambda functions, Step Functions, API Gateway, EventBridge, SQS, SNS and more. Some of the features it provides are:

  • Initialize serverless applications in minutes with AWS-provided infrastructure templates with sam init
  • Compile, build, and package Lambda functions with provided runtimes and with custom Makefile workflows, for zip and image types of Lambda functions with sam build
  • Locally test a Lambda function and API Gateway easily in a Docker container with sam local commands on SAM and CDK applications
  • Sync and test your changes in the cloud with sam sync in your developer environments
  • Deploy your SAM and CloudFormation templates using sam deploy
  • Quickly create pipelines with prebuilt templates with popular CI/CD systems using sam pipeline init
  • Tail CloudWatch logs and X-Ray traces with sam logs and sam traces

Get Started

To get started with building SAM-based applications, use the SAM CLI. SAM CLI provides a Lambda-like execution environment that lets you locally build, test, debug, and deploy AWS serverless applications.

Next Steps: Learn to build a more complex serverless application.

What is this Github repository? 💻

This Github repository contains source code for SAM CLI. Here is the development team talking about this code:

SAM CLI code is written in Python. Source code is well documented, very modular, with 95% unit test coverage. It uses this awesome Python library called Click to manage the command line interaction and uses Docker to run Lambda functions locally. We think you'll like the code base. Clone it and run make pr or ./Make -pr on Windows!
