# lambda-kotlin-groovy-example

Sample code for the "Kotlin and Groovy JVM Languages with AWS Lambda" blog post. Shows how to deploy AWS Lambda functions using Kotlin and Groovy JVM languages.

# Quick Start

## Requirements

Before cloning and building these examples, you'll need to install the following dependencies:
* Java JDK 8 ([link](http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index-jsp-138363.html))

## Clone repo

Clone the Git repository

```bash
git clone https://github.com/awslabs/lambda-kotlin-groovy-example
cd lambda-kotlin-groovy-example
```

## Build Groovy Lambda function

Execute the following commands to build the Groovy example AWS Lambda function. Note, this command uses Gradle (via the Gradle Wrapper) to download dependencies and build the fat JAR file containing the AWS Lambda function.

```bash
cd groovy
./gradlew shadowjar
```

Once Gradle finished. The fat JAR will be available at `build/libs/jvmlangs-groovy-1.0-SNAPSHOT-all.jar`. This JAR file can be deployed using AWS Lambda.

## Build Kotlin Lambda function

Execute the following commands to build the Kotlin example AWS Lambda function. Note, this command uses Gradle (via the Gradle Wrapper) to download dependencies and build the fat JAR file containing the AWS Lambda function.

```bash
cd kotlin
./gradlew shadowjar
```

Once Gradle finished. The fat JAR will be available at `build/libs/jvmlangs-kotlin-1.0-SNAPSHOT-all.jar`. This JAR file can be deployed using AWS Lambda.
