Sample function code - Amazon Lambda
Node.jsJava
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Sample function code

Sample code is available for the following languages.

Node.js

The following example uses data to generate a string response.

Example index.js
exports.handler = function(event, context, callback) {
   console.log("Received event: ", event);
   var data = {
       "greetings": "Hello, " + event.firstName + " " + event.lastName + "."
   };
   callback(null, data);
}

Java

The following example uses data to generate a string response.

In the code, the handler (myHandler) uses the RequestClass and ResponseClass types for the input and output. The code provides implementation for these types.

Example HelloPojo.java
package example;

import com.amazonaws.services.lambda.runtime.Context; 

public class HelloPojo {

    // Define two classes/POJOs for use with Lambda function.
    public static class RequestClass {
        String firstName;
        String lastName;

        public String getFirstName() {
            return firstName;
        }

        public void setFirstName(String firstName) {
            this.firstName = firstName;
        }

        public String getLastName() {
            return lastName;
        }

        public void setLastName(String lastName) {
            this.lastName = lastName;
        }

        public RequestClass(String firstName, String lastName) {
            this.firstName = firstName;
            this.lastName = lastName;
        }

        public RequestClass() {
        }
    }

    public static class ResponseClass {
        String greetings;

        public String getGreetings() {
            return greetings;
        }

        public void setGreetings(String greetings) {
            this.greetings = greetings;
        }

        public ResponseClass(String greetings) {
            this.greetings = greetings;
        }

        public ResponseClass() {
        }

    }

    public static ResponseClass myHandler(RequestClass request, Context context){
        String greetingString = String.format("Hello %s, %s.", request.firstName, request.lastName);
        context.getLogger().log(greetingString);
        return new ResponseClass(greetingString);
    }
}
