Show HN: I made a local development, debugging and hotreload tool for AWS Lambda
by sozal on Hacker News.
MerLoc is a live AWS Lambda function development and debugging tool. MerLoc allows you to run AWS Lambda functions on your local while they are still part of a flow in the AWS cloud remote. MerLoc makes it possible to
– test your function locally without deploy to the AWS Lambda environment (so no wait for build, package and deploy)
– debug your function by putting breakpoints from your IDE
– hot-reload updated function on your local automatically to apply changes automatically (so again no wait for build, package and deploy)
– run the individual function locally while it is still part of flow shown above and use real requests from the AWS Lambda environment
