Project description

aws-lambda-eventbridge module

Stability: Experimental

Language Package
Python Logo Python aws_solutions_constructs.aws_lambda_eventbridge
Typescript Logo Typescript @aws-solutions-constructs/aws-lambda-eventbridge
Java Logo Java software.amazon.awsconstructs.services.lambdaeventbridge

This AWS Solutions Construct implements an AWS Lambda function connected to an Amazon EventBridge.

Here is a minimal deployable pattern definition in Typescript:

# Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
from aws_solutions_constructs.aws_lambda_eventbridge import LambdaToEventbridge, LambdaToEventbridgeProps

LambdaToEventbridge(self, "LambdaToEventbridgePattern",
    lambda_function_props=FunctionProps(
        runtime=lambda_.Runtime.NODEJS_12_X,
        handler="index.handler",
        code=lambda_.Code.from_asset(f"{__dirname}/lambda")
    )
)

Initializer

new LambdaToEventbridge(scope: Construct, id: string, props: LambdaToEventbridgeProps);

Parameters

Pattern Construct Props

Name Type Description
existingLambdaObj? lambda.Function An optional, existing Lambda function to be used instead of the default function. Providing both this and lambdaFunctionProps will cause an error.
lambdaFunctionProps? lambda.FunctionProps Optional user-provided properties to override the default properties for the Lambda function.
existingEventBusInterface? events.IEventBus Optional user-provided custom EventBus for construct to use. Providing both this and eventBusProps results an error.
eventBusProps? events.EventBusProps Optional user-provided properties to override the default properties when creating a custom EventBus. Setting this value to {} will create a custom EventBus using all default properties. If neither this nor existingEventBusInterface is provided the construct will use the default EventBus. Providing both this and existingEventBusInterface results an error.
existingVpc? ec2.IVpc An optional, existing VPC into which this pattern should be deployed. When deployed in a VPC, the Lambda function will use ENIs in the VPC to access network resources and an Interface Endpoint will be created in the VPC for Amazon EventBridge. If an existing VPC is provided, the deployVpc property cannot be true. This uses ec2.IVpc to allow clients to supply VPCs that exist outside the stack using the ec2.Vpc.fromLookup() method.
vpcProps? ec2.VpcProps Optional user-provided properties to override the default properties for the new VPC. enableDnsHostnames, enableDnsSupport, natGateways and subnetConfiguration are set by the pattern, so any values for those properties supplied here will be overrriden. If deployVpc is not true then this property will be ignored.
deployVpc? boolean Whether to create a new VPC based on vpcProps into which to deploy this pattern. Setting this to true will deploy the minimal, most private VPC to run the pattern:
  • One isolated subnet in each Availability Zone used by the CDK program
  • enableDnsHostnames and enableDnsSupport will both be set to true
If this property is true then existingVpc cannot be specified. Defaults to false.
eventBusEnvironmentVariableName? string Optional Name for the EventBus's name environment variable set for the Lambda function.

Pattern Properties

Name Type Description
lambdaFunction lambda.Function Returns an instance of the Lambda function created by the pattern.
eventBus? events.IEventBus Returns the instance of events.IEventBus used by the construct
vpc? ec2.IVpc Returns an interface on the VPC used by the pattern (if any). This may be a VPC created by the pattern or the VPC supplied to the pattern constructor.

Default settings

Out of the box implementation of the Construct without any override will set the following defaults:

AWS Lambda Function

  • Configure limited privilege access IAM role for Lambda function.

  • Enable reusing connections with Keep-Alive for NodeJs Lambda function.

  • Allow the function to put events to EventBus (custom EventBus can be used by specifying existingEventBusInterface or eventBusProps property).

  • Enable X-Ray Tracing

  • Set Environment Variables

    • EVENTBUS_NAME
    • AWS_NODEJS_CONNECTION_REUSE_ENABLED (for Node 10.x and higher functions)
