AWS Lambda Programming

The REST endpoints are AWS Lambda Functions. GetCharityTypes is written in C#...

• I think I may have picked a poor template for building these Lambdas because it has been difficult to resolve the problems. These are the undocumented changes I needed to make:
  • You need to manually edit the .csproj file of each project and add this to resolve a problem running the Lambda in AWS (I don't recall the exact error) This might be related to the Microsoft ICU reference I needed to include and maybe I can remove that Microsoft ICU now:
    • true
  • It seems we can't use the Mysql.data SDKs, especially after upgrading to .Net Core 8 from .Net Core 6, but the MySQLConnection SDK works.
  • I had to add a custom serializer for each class and type that inherits JsonSerializerContext because of changes in Lambda support for reflection and serialization.
  • The Project needs a lot of specific settings:
    • Output type of "Console Application"
    • Target framework of ".Net 8.0"
    • Assembly name of "bootstrap"
  • I think some of the settings in the aws-lambda-tools-defaults.json file
