How can I use Amazon Linux 2 AMI native binary packages with Lambda?
I want to create an AWS Lambda function that contains binary shared library dependencies and runs on an Amazon Linux 2 Amazon Machine Image (AMI). Is there a way that I can use Amazon Linux 2 AMI software packages without recompiling the package?
"I want to create an AWS Lambda function that contains binary shared library dependencies and runs on an Amazon Linux 2 Amazon Machine Image (AMI). Is there a way that I can use Amazon Linux 2 AMI software packages without recompiling the package?Short descriptionThe Amazon Linux 2 AMI and Amazon Linux AMI that are used for Lambda runtimes don't support all the same native binary packages.As a workaround, you can first build a Lambda container image using the Docker command line interface (CLI). Then, use the container image to run your Lambda function.ResolutionNote: If you receive errors when running AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) commands, make sure that you're using the most recent AWS CLI version.The following instructions describe how to install a curl library into a Docker image (Lambda container image). Then, how to use the image to run a Python version 3.9 Lambda function. For other coding languages, adapt the steps accordingly.1.    If you haven't done so already, install the Docker CLI.2.    Create a project directory named lambda-project.3.    Use a text editor to create a Dockerfile in the lambda-project directory that includes the following example code:FROM public.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.9# Copy function codeCOPY lambda_function.py ${LAMBDA_TASK_ROOT}# Install the binary packages using yum installRUN yum install -y curl# Set the CMD to your handler (could also be done as a parameter override outside of the Dockerfile)CMD [ "lambda_function.lambda_handler" ]4.    Use a text editor to create a lambda_function.py file in the lambda-project directory that includes the following example code:import subprocessdef lambda_handler(event, context):    my_output = subprocess.check_output(["curl","-X", "GET", "https://www.httpbin.org/get"], stderr=subprocess.STDOUT, shell=False)    print(my_output.decode('utf8'))Important: Make sure that you run all of the following commands (steps 5-10) in the lambda-project directory.5.    Create the Lambda container image by running the following docker build Docker CLI command:docker build -t hello-world6.    Test the container image's setup by starting the container image locally. To start the container image locally, run the following docker run Docker CLI command:docker run -p 9000:8080 hello-world curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" -d '{}'7.    Authenticate Docker to your Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR) registry by running the following get-login-password AWS CLI command:Important: Replace us-east-1 with your AWS Region. Replace 123456789012 with your AWS account ID.aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1 | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin 123456789012.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.comFor more information, see Using an authorization token in the Amazon ECR User Guide.8.    Create an Amazon ECR repository by running the following create-repository AWS CLI command:Important: Replace hello-world with the name of your Amazon ECR repository.aws ecr create-repository --repository-name hello-world --image-scanning-configuration scanOnPush=true --image-tag-mutability MUTABLEFor more information, see Step 3: Create a repository in the Amazon ECR User Guide.9.    Tag your container image to push to your repository by running the following docker tag Docker CLI command:Important: Replace 123456789012 with your AWS account ID. Replace us-east-1 with your AWS Region.docker tag  hello-world:latest 123456789012.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/hello-world:latest10.    Push your container image to your repository by running the following docker push Docker CLI command:Important: Replace 123456789012 with your AWS account ID. Replace us-east-1 with your AWS Region.docker push 123456789012.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/hello-world:latestYour container image is now in your Amazon ECR repository. For more information, see Step 4: Push an image to Amazon ECR in the Amazon ECR User Guide.11.    Create and test your Lambda function using the container image that you created.
