The source code of your Lambda function.

You can point to a file in an Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) bucket or specify your source code as inline text.


handler

Type: string

The name of the method within your code that Lambda calls to execute your function.

The format includes the file name. It can also include namespaces and other qualifiers, depending on the runtime. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/foundation-progmodel.html.

Use Handler.FROM_IMAGE when defining a function from a Docker image.

NOTE: If you specify your source code as inline text by specifying the ZipFile property within the Code property, specify index.function_name as the handler.


runtime

Type: Runtime

The runtime environment for the Lambda function that you are uploading.

For valid values, see the Runtime property in the AWS Lambda Developer Guide.

Use Runtime.FROM_IMAGE when defining a function from a Docker image.

Enabled DLQ.

If deadLetterQueue is undefined, an SQS queue with default options will be defined for your Function.


deadLetterTopic?

Type: ITopic (optional, default: no SNS topic)

The SNS topic to use as a DLQ.

Note that if deadLetterQueueEnabled is set to true, an SQS queue will be created rather than an SNS topic. Using an SNS topic as a DLQ requires this property to be set explicitly.


description?

Type: string (optional, default: No description.)

A description of the function.


environment?

Type: { [string]: string } (optional, default: No environment variables.)

Key-value pairs that Lambda caches and makes available for your Lambda functions.

Type: Size (optional, default: 512 MiB)

The size of the function’s /tmp directory in MiB.


events?

Type: IEventSource[] (optional, default: No event sources.)

Event sources for this function.

You can also add event sources using addEventSource.


filesystem?

Type: FileSystem (optional, default: will not mount any filesystem)

The filesystem configuration for the lambda function.


functionName?

Type: string (optional, default: AWS CloudFormation generates a unique physical ID and uses that ID for the function's name. For more information, see Name Type.)

A name for the function.


initialPolicy?

Type: PolicyStatement[] (optional, default: No policy statements are added to the created Lambda role.)

Initial policy statements to add to the created Lambda Role.

You can call addToRolePolicy to the created lambda to add statements post creation.


insightsVersion?

Type: LambdaInsightsVersion (optional, default: No Lambda Insights)

Specify the version of CloudWatch Lambda insights to use for monitoring.

See also: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/Lambda-Insights-Getting-Started-docker.html


layers?

Type: ILayerVersion[] (optional, default: No layers.)

A list of layers to add to the function's execution environment.

You can configure your Lambda function to pull in additional code during initialization in the form of layers. Layers are packages of libraries or other dependencies that can be used by multiple functions.


logRetention?

Type: RetentionDays (optional, default: logs.RetentionDays.INFINITE)

The number of days log events are kept in CloudWatch Logs.

When updating this property, unsetting it doesn't remove the log retention policy. To remove the retention policy, set the value to INFINITE.


logRetentionRetryOptions?

Type: LogRetentionRetryOptions (optional, default: Default AWS SDK retry options.)

When log retention is specified, a custom resource attempts to create the CloudWatch log group.

These options control the retry policy when interacting with CloudWatch APIs.

Lambda uses this value to proportionally allocate the amount of CPU power. For more information, see Resource Model in the AWS Lambda Developer Guide.


onFailure?

Type: IDestination (optional, default: no destination)

The destination for failed invocations.


onSuccess?

Type: IDestination (optional, default: no destination)

The destination for successful invocations.

retryAttempts?

Type: number (optional, default: 2)

The maximum number of times to retry when the function returns an error.

Minimum: 0 Maximum: 2


role?

Type: IRole (optional, default: A unique role will be generated for this lambda function. Both supplied and generated roles can always be changed by calling addToRolePolicy.)

Lambda execution role.

This is the role that will be assumed by the function upon execution. It controls the permissions that the function will have. The Role must be assumable by the 'lambda.amazonaws.com' service principal.

The default Role automatically has permissions granted for Lambda execution. If you provide a Role, you must add the relevant AWS managed policies yourself.

The relevant managed policies are "service-role/AWSLambdaBasicExecutionRole" and "service-role/AWSLambdaVPCAccessExecutionRole".


runtimeManagementMode?

Type: RuntimeManagementMode (optional, default: Auto)

Sets the runtime management configuration for a function's version.


securityGroups?

Type: ISecurityGroup[] (optional, default: If the function is placed within a VPC and a security group is not specified, either by this or securityGroup prop, a dedicated security group will be created for this function.)

The list of security groups to associate with the Lambda's network interfaces.

Only used if 'vpc' is supplied.


timeout?

Type: Duration (optional, default: Duration.seconds(3))

The function execution time (in seconds) after which Lambda terminates the function.

Because the execution time affects cost, set this value based on the function's expected execution time.


tracing?

Type: Tracing (optional, default: Tracing.Disabled)

Enable AWS X-Ray Tracing for Lambda Function.


vpc?

Type: IVpc (optional, default: Function is not placed within a VPC.)

VPC network to place Lambda network interfaces.

Specify this if the Lambda function needs to access resources in a VPC. This is required when vpcSubnets is specified.


vpcSubnets?

Type: SubnetSelection (optional, default: the Vpc default strategy if not specified)

Where to place the network interfaces within the VPC.

This requires vpc to be specified in order for interfaces to actually be placed in the subnets. If vpc is not specify, this will raise an error.

Note: Internet access for Lambda Functions requires a NAT Gateway, so picking public subnets is not allowed (unless allowPublicSubnet is set to true).
