Use created build on AWS Lambda

[abdulbarik]

Hi, Thanks for giving this awesome module to convert office to pdf. I am using PDFHandler to convert office to pdf. I am following the README to create build and deploy it on AWS Lambda with JAVA 8. I am able to deploy it and integrated it with other lambda function(CreateThumbnail). When I am running the CreateThumbnail lambda I am getting error classnotfound exception, mean I am sure I am not giving the correct class name on AWS Lambda. I am Node.js developer, and have only hands on experience in java. Please update the doc with with handler name and others which required or comment here.

Thanks

The Java Lambda for PDFHandler should be configured with a handler called com.exlibrisgroup.alma.PdfConverter::handleRequest.

Let me know if that works for you and I'll update the readme.

Hi, Thanks for speedy reply. Yes, I am able to run the app. But I am getting lambda timeout error while using pdfHanlder lambda in CreateThumbnail lamda. PDFHanfler taking more than 5 minutes to convert the doc to pdf, mean not getting success response.

Glad to hear you're able to run the app.

I performed a test using the AWS Lambda Console. My test function payload looked like this:

{
    "bucket": "na-st01.ext.exlibrisgroup.com", 
    "key": "TR_INTEGRATION_INST/scratch/Ex Libris Marketplace-Requirements.pptx",
    "destination": "TR_INTEGRATION_INST/scratch/pdf/"
} 

It ran successfully- see the output below.

I would try to run it from there to isolate other issues.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot for response and updating the doc. I have followed same example and tried to run it, still getting same error. I have doubt in my payload destination value. Where is the TR_INTEGRATION_INST/scratch/pdf/ pathi exists? do I need to create or it created self by PDFHanlder? I tried with your payload destination value with my bucket and key value:

var lambda = new AWS.Lambda();
     var params = {
          FunctionName: 'officetopdfthumbnail', 
     InvocationType: 'RequestResponse',
    Payload: JSON.stringify({ 
       bucket: bucket, 
       key: srcKey,
       destination: "TR_INTEGRATION_INST/scratch/pdf/"
   })
} 

And on my officetopdfthumbnail log, I am getting following error:

The destination is a location within your bucket that you wish to place the resulting PDF file.

From the error message it looks like it can't read your MS Word file. I would try other files to confirm this is the case.
