In this blog, we will setup the Continuous Deployment to Lambda function using Bitbucket pipeline

CI/CD Flow:

1. Docker image
2. We are using caches feature of bitbucket pipeline. We are doing custom caching for node_modules folder
3. Run the npm install command
4. Creating a zip file

5. Upload zip file to S3 bucket

6. Update the lambda function that will take the new artifacts from S3 buckets

Prerequisite:

1. S3 bucket on AWS
2. Lambda function
3. IAM Role
4. bitbucket-pipeline.yaml file
5. AWS Secret Keys
6. Environment Variables

How to setup a Continuous Deployment to Lambda function using Bitbucket pipeline

1. Create a bitbucket-pipeline.yaml file at the root of your project
2. For the specific bitbucket repository -> Go to Settings -> Add Repository variables

AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS_REGION
AWS_LAMBDA_FUNCTION_NAME
AWS_ROLE

All the above variables are required to connect to s3 bucket and the lambda function from bitbucket pipeline.

3. We are setting up a Continuous Deployment to Lambda function using Bitbucket pipeline for nodejs application
