PHP 7.2.11 AWS Lambda runtime Example

AWS Lambda Runtime sample - PHP

Overview

This repo contains an implementation of PHP runtime layer with AWS Lambda. Everything you need is already included.

Files:

1. runtime/php - Statically compiled PHP 7.2.11 on alinux 2017.03
2. runtime/bootstrap - This is a Bash script. This initizlizes and starts the PHP runtime
3. runtime/runtime.php - This contains the interations with AWS runtime API and the main logic to execute the function handler
4. function/Function.php - Sample lambda function

Handler

This runtime expects the function handler in AWS Lambda configuration in the form filename.handler. This means that if you configure AWS lambda's handler field as filename.handler the runtime layer will look for a file fielname.php in your function code and execute the function handler passing in the event payload as the first argument. Refer to file function/Function.php in this repositiory for example.

Configuration

To use this runtime:

1. Download or clone this repo ⬇️
2. Log in to AWS and go to the Lambda service area
3. Click on Layers and "Create Layer"
4. Name the layer and upload the zip file created in above step ⬆️
5. Take a note of the ARN generated in the layer 📝
6. Create a Lambda function from scratch. Select custom runtime 🏇
7. Click on Layers in AWS "Lambda Designer" area to reveal layer options click "Add Layer"
8. Paste in the ARN from the above step as the source of the layer and save
9. Define the handler in lambda function as function.handler in the "Function Code" area
10. Copy code from function.php into the lambda funtion created above ✏️

You will see "hello" returned upon testing.

You now are running PHP in lambda. 🎉👍
