Docker support

[jlarmstrongiv]

This is the second time I’ve seen this repo posted, so I thought I’d ask about docker support 😄 There used to be https://github.com/lambci/lambci, but it is no longer maintained

Docker images can be found on https://hub.docker.com/r/amazon/aws-lambda-nodejs and https://gallery.ecr.aws/lambda/nodejs

More information on using docker with AWS Lambda can be found:

• https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/nodejs-image.html
• https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/images-create.html
• https://www.serverless.com/blog/container-support-for-lambda

These resources may also be helpful:

@jlarmstrongiv Thank you for raising it. To clarify what the ask is: are you suggesting everynode provides base docker images for every version of node.js in addition to layers like it does today?

[jlarmstrongiv]

@tjanczuk yes, that’s correct.

I’ve used a mix of regular serverless functions and docker serverless functions for both professional and personal projects since they were released a few years ago. There’s always some troublesome dependency or >50mb function that needs it. As I share code between both, it’s important that they all run on the same version of node. In a perfect world, everynode.

Having the docker images built on the ci regularly like lambda layers would be perfect.
