Event Horizon simplifies doing _the right_ thing with AWS lambda handlers. It tries to do _as little_ as possible, and adds little functionality:

- Typing & validation on handler input and output.
- Sane and configurable error handling depending on the event source.
- Exposes loggers, tracing and metrics functionality.
- A standardized way of injecting dependencies in the cold start of lambdas.
- Out of the box [AWS X-Ray](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/xray/latest/devguide/aws-xray.html) integration.
- OpenAPI documentation generation.
- Tries to stay out of your way as much as possible.

Notably, Event Horizon is _not_ an http framework. Routing is outside of the scope of this library. Replacing the library with something else shouldn't be hard due to its limited functionality.

## [Documentation](https://skyleague.github.io/event-horizon/)

The documentation can be found [here](https://skyleague.github.io/event-horizon/).

## Install

Use npm to install event-horizon and the event-horizon-cli

```sh
npm i @skyleague/event-horizon
```

## Handlers

### HTTP

An example http handler:

```
export const handler = httpHandler({
http: {
method: 'post',
path: '/pet',
schema: {
body: Pet,
responses: {
200: Pet,
},
},
handler: ({ body }, { logger }) => {
logger.info('Request received', {
foo: 'bar',
})

return {
statusCode: 200,
body: body,
}
},
},
})
```

## Local Development

Install [Event Horizon CLI module](https://github.com/skyleague/event-horizon-cli)

```sh
npm i @skyleague/event-horizon-dev
```

## Usage

In the examples folder you will find a pet-store application which you can run.

```sh
event-horizon-dev start examples/pet-store/functions/index.ts | npx pino-pretty -m message
```

Two local endpoints will become available on http://localhost:3000

[http://localhost:3000/pet](http://localhost:3000/pet) and [http://localhost:3000/pet/findByStatus ](http://localhost:3000/pet/findByStatus?status=sold)

Logs will be available in your terminal.

## Alternative projects

In no particular order, the following libraries try to solve similar problems (albeit very differently):

- [`Middy`](https://middy.js.org/)
- [`Serverless Express`](https://github.com/vendia/serverless-express)
- The list goes on...

PR's are very welcome if you think your project is missing here.
