Go Serverless Examples

A few example of AWS lambda functions written in GoLang.

Functions:

  • hello-world: Exactly what is says on the tin. Listening on a /hello path.
  • auth: An AWS API Gateway custom authorizer that sits in front of hello-world. It expects an auth bearer of hello as a header and is on the base / path. The auth header should be Authorization: bearer hello
  • auth2 and hello-world2: The same as auth above except using auth contexts. Any name can be used as a bearer token, for example Authorization: bearer Bob. The response will then return Hello, Bob!

I hope to add to these examples over time, if you have ideas please feel free to raise issues or pull requests.
