not unless I write one

@juliobarros: are you going with cljs instead of java?

mj_langford19:07:36

it’s not hard to keep the lambda function in cache with java

mj_langford19:07:50

so it’s really fast, but if you want js libs, you want js libs so I could see going either way

juliobarros19:07:41

@mj_langford: Sorry I think there was a typo or I wasn’t clear. I’d consider cljs or clj and was just trying to learn either/both and aws. cljs was fine to get started but was unclear how to use dynamodb and ses. They seemed to be better supported by the clj (java) libs.

mj_langford19:07:55

Yeah, java is tons better supported

mj_langford19:07:25

JVM based will require you to setup a 1 minute “pinger” call to your lambda function

mj_langford19:07:36

if you use ring-aws-lambda-adapter

mj_langford19:07:49

you can have your entire app use the same lambda function, and just be called by different paths

mj_langford19:07:54

which compojure will decode alright

mj_langford19:07:15

AWS is a beast

mj_langford19:07:33

It took me basically 5 days to learn how to do this after experimenting with various ways

mj_langford19:07:41

to get something industrial strength feeling

@mj_langford: … cant wait to read your write up. 😄
