Deploy Python Lambda Functions With Container Image

Deploy Python Lambda functions with container images

You can deploy your Lambda function code as a container image. AWS provides the following resources to help you build a container image for your Python function:

  • AWS base images for Lambda

    • These base images are preloaded with a language runtime and other components that are required to run the image on Lambda. AWS provides a Dockerfile for each of the base images to help with building your container image.
  • Open-source runtime interface clients

    • If you use a community or private enterprise base image, add a runtime interface client to the base image to make it compatible with Lambda.

What’s In This Document

πŸš€ Create Docker image container

Create an image from AWS base image

Dockerfile.aws



FROM amazon/aws-lambda-python:3.8

COPY app.py ./

CMD ["app.handler"]


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

πŸš€ Create app.py as lambda handler



import sys


def handler(event, context):
    return 'Hello from AWS Lambda using Python' + sys.version + '!'


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

πŸš€ Build and push the image to ECR



aws ecr get-login-password --region ap-southeast-1 | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin 111111111111.dkr.ecr.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com
docker build -t pythonlambda .
docker tag pythonlambda:latest 111111111111.dkr.ecr.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/pythonlambda:latest
docker push 111111111111.dkr.ecr.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/pythonlambda:latest


Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

πŸš€ Create Lambda container image

Alt Text

πŸš€ Test the lambda function

1. Invoke lambda function

  • Start container ```

docker rm -f lambdaimagetest
docker run -d --name lambdaimagetest -it pythonlambda:latest bash
docker exec -it lambdaimagetest bash

- Invoke lambda function
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

⚑ $ aws lambda invoke --function-name python-lambda-image --region ap-southeast-1 outfile

{
"StatusCode": 200,
"ExecutedVersion": $LATEST"
}
⚑ $ cat outfile

"Hello from AWS Lambda using Python3.8.5 (default, Aug 5 2020, 08:22:02) \n[GCC 8.3.0]!"


#### **2. Call lambda API from local container**
- This should be performed from AWS image base
- Run container
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

⚑ $ docker run -d --name testapi -p 9000:8080 pythonlambda:latest

- Call API
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

⚑ $ curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" -d '{}'
"Hello from AWS Lambda using Python3.8.6 (default, Dec 16 2020, 01:05:15) \n[GCC 7.3.1 20180712 (Red Hat 7.3.1-11)]!"

- Deploy new image
