    CLJS in AWS Lambda Quick Start

Setup

First, a few dependencies:

Leiningen: https://leiningen.org/
Node.js & NPM: https://nodejs.org/
Serverless: https://serverless.com/
An active AWS account: https://aws.amazon.com/

Second, take the time to go through the guides on the Serverless website for configuring AWS Lambda
and the serverless CLI. It would probably be a good idea to create a simple project and deploying it
before going through this guide.
Create our application

lein new figwheel-node cljs-lambda-fn
cd cljs-lambda-fn
npm i
serverless create --template aws-nodejs
core.cljs:
(ns cljs-lambda-fn.core
  (:require [cljs.nodejs :as nodejs]))

(nodejs/enable-util-print!)

;; (defn -main []
;;   (println "Hello world!"))

;; (set! *main-cli-fn* -main)

(defn greet [event ctx cb]
  ;; see `handler.js` generated by serverless
  ;; for reference to `cb` signature
  (cb nil (clj->js
       {:statusCode 200
        :headers {"Content-Type" "text/html"}
        :body "<h1>Hello, world!</h1>"})))

(set! (.-exports js/module) #js
      {:greet greet})
Build: lein cljsbuild once
Test in a Node.js REPL:
$ node
> require('./server.js').greet(null, null, (_, v) => console.log(v))
{ statusCode: 200,
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'text/html' },
  body: '<h1>Hello, world!</h1>' }
undefined

Configuring Serverless

In serverless.yml, edit these fields:
service: cljs-lambda-greet # something unique
...

functions:
  hello:
    handler: server.greet
    events:
      - http:
          path: greet
          method: get
