Go Runtime does not support extension API #224

Closed trosenblatt-norberthealth closed 3 years ago

trosenblatt-norberthealth commented 3 years ago

I saw the release of AppConfig, and jumped on it to use it on my go lambdas to replace my environment variables. I followed the tutorial on https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appconfig/latest/userguide/appconfig-integration-lambda-extensions.html. I pushed my Go lambda with the new layer, just to realise that my AppConfig extension was never called ... ( I tested with python it works great)

Then I read the list of supported runtime, and go seems to be not included.

It seems that all language are supported even CustomRuntime, so I don't get why go is not supported. Would it mean I have to run my go lambda on a CustomRuntime (provided.al2)?

Also if you can share why go is left alone, that would be great !

Thks a lot, Thomas.

This is a documentation forum, so I do not have an answer about why Extensions are not supported on the Go runtime. You may get an answer if you post your question on the Lambda forum: https://forums.aws.amazon.com/forum.jspa?forumID=186
