The better way to execute Go on Amazon Lambda (see: http://blog.0x82.com/2014/11/24/aws-lambda-functions-in-go/)

handler.js

var child_process = require('child_process');

exports.handler = function(event, context) {
  var proc = spawn('./test', [ JSON.stringify(event) ], { stdio: 'inherit' });

  proc.on('close', function(code){
    if(code !== 0) {
      return context.done(new Error("Process exited with non-zero status code"));
    }

    context.done(null);
  });
}

@escholtz: Yes.

This has been really helpful for me in learning how to do this, thanks for sharing. I also stumbled upon an even better way: https://github.com/jasonmoo/lambda_proc

You can now run vanilla Go on AWS Lambda, in a fast (<5ms) and clean way (log/panic)

This feels like native Go support.. with a single file 😍

PS: No Node.js wrapper (using Python) and cgo under the hood
