Getting Started
Prerequisites
Make sure you have the following installed before starting:
Also allow the lambda to have the following IAM permissions:
- ec2:CreateNetworkInterface
- ec2:DescribeNetworkInterfaces
- ec2:DeleteNetworkInterface
Installation
Run:
# From npm (recommended)
npm install serverless-vpc-discovery
# From github
npm install https://github.com/amplify-education/serverless-vpc-discovery.gitThen make the following edits to your serverless.yaml file:
plugins:
- serverless-vpc-discovery
custom:
vpc:
vpcName: '${opt:env}'
subnetNames:
- '${opt:env}_NAME OF SUBNET'
securityGroupNames:
- '${opt:env}_NAME OF SECURITY GROUP'NOTE: The naming pattern we used here was building off the vpc name for the subnet and security group by extending it with the the subnet and security group name. This makes it easier to switch to different vpcs by changing the environment variable in the command line
Running Tests
To run the test:
npm testAll tests should pass.
If there is an error update the node_module inside the serverless-vpc-discovery folder:
npm installDeploying with the plugin
When deploying run:
serverless deploy --env 'VPC Name'And that should be it! Good Luck!
How it Works
The vpc, subnets, and security groups are found by filtering based on a specified tag name.
Vpc, security groups, and subnets are found under the tag name tag:Name.
The vpc is found first as it is used to find the subnets and security groups. Once all of the subnets and security groups are found the serverless service provider creates a vpc object and stores the subnets and security groups.
