AWS Lambda Deployment

It's required to deploy repo supervisor on AWS Lambda if you want to use the HTML reports and Pull Requests scanning feature.

Pre-requisites:

• AWS Account
• Understanding on how to use AWS Lambda (read: Lambda intro and Lambda + Webhooks])

Lambda configuration

It's the simplest form of deploying an application on AWS Lambda. There needs to be a URL that invokes Lambda function and returns a result. You need to have API Gateway configured in front of Lambda to receive Github webhook calls.

• Lambda -> Functions -> Create function
  • Function name: repoSupervisor
  • Runtime: Node.js 10.x
• Lamba -> Functions -> repoSupervisor
  • Add trigger: API Gateway
  • API: Create a new API of HTTP API type

After clicking on the API Gateway icon, you should see a URL of your Lambda function that you can use as a webhook URL for your repository. Since deploying this function is not different than a standard deployment in case of issues, the official documentation from AWS is a recommended reading.
