Utility for generating fake SQS Records to help with Unit/Integration testing

SQSRecordFactory.ts

import { v4 as uuidv4 } from 'uuid';
import { SQSRecord } from 'aws-lambda';

const now = Math.round((new Date()).getTime() / 1000).toString();


export default (params?: Partial<SQSRecord>): SQSRecord => ({
  messageId: uuidv4(),
  receiptHandle: uuidv4(),
  body: '',
  attributes: {
    ApproximateReceiveCount: '1',
    SentTimestamp: now,
    SenderId: uuidv4(),
    ApproximateFirstReceiveTimestamp: now,
  },
  messageAttributes: {},
  md5OfBody: 'rarely-actually-need-this',
  eventSource: 'aws:sqs',
  eventSourceARN: 'arn:aws:sqs:my-region:account-number:queue-name',
  awsRegion: 'my-region',
  ...params,
});
