Setup Instructions

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd lambda-localstack-project
   

2. Install dependencies: Make sure you have Python and pip installed. Then run:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

3. Run LocalStack: Use Docker to start LocalStack:

   docker-compose up
   

4. Deploy the Lambda function: After LocalStack is running, you can deploy your Lambda function using the AWS CLI configured to point to LocalStack.

Usage Example

Once the Lambda function is deployed, you can invoke it using the AWS CLI:

aws lambda invoke --function-name your_lambda_function_name --payload '{"key": "value"}' response.json --endpoint-url=http://localhost:4566
