Add option to bundle static files in the zip archive #21

Closed ryanwalls closed 8 years ago

ryanwalls commented 8 years ago

I'm looking for a way to configure my lambda functions dynamically. In other apps I use spf13/viper to load local config files. Because in Sparta we create a binary that doesn't include the config files, this doesn't work.

Ideally I'd like to be able to tell Sparta that I want some files included in the zip file and unpacked along with my binary. That way I could load them in the traditional way. (Perhaps this could piggyback on the existing functionality for zipping up static S3 websites?)

HI Ryan, Can you use the new archive hook for this?

ryanwalls commented 8 years ago

@mweagle Perhaps you know the answer to this... if I include a file in the zip, what is the path from which to load it from in my lambda function?

ryanwalls commented 8 years ago

Perhaps here? $LAMBDA_TASK_ROOT?

Thanks. The archive hook will work. Haven't implemented yet, but the example is straight forward. Closing this.

Before I closed this I was doing some local testing to confirm that it actually did what it was supposed to. I was running into some ZIP corruption issue that I think I resolved with the upcoming 0.9.1 - LMK if you encounter any problems with the existing release.
