This is a Cookiecutter template to create a Go AWS Lambda with Terraform deployment and infrastructure.
It is important to note that you should not try to git clone this project but use cookiecutter CLI instead as {{cookiecutter.project_slug}} will be rendered based on your input and therefore all variables and files will be rendered properly.
Install cookiecutter command line:
Pip users:
pip install cookiecutter
Homebrew users:
brew install cookiecutter
Windows or Pipenv users:
pipenv install cookiecutter
NOTE: Pipenv is the new and recommended Python packaging tool that works across multiple platforms and makes Windows a first-class citizen.
Generate a new AWS Go Lambda: cookiecutter gh:flow-lab/go-lambda-template (or if you want to authenticate with ssh: cookiecutter git+ssh://git@github.com/flow-lab/go-lambda-template).
You'll be prompted a few questions to help this cookiecutter template to scaffold this project and after its completed you should see a new folder at your current path with the name of the project you gave as input.
After project has been generated, cd into it and push to github (make sure you have created the repository first):
$ cd <project-name>
$ git init .
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:<github-user>/<project-name>.git
$ git add . && git commit -m 'Initial commit' && git push origin master
NOTE: After you understand how cookiecutter works (cookiecutter.json, mainly), you can fork this repo and apply your own mechanisms to accelerate your development process and this can be followed for any programming language and OS.
