Prerequisites

• AWS CLI configured with appropriate credentials
• AWS SAM CLI installed (installation guide)
• Python 3.11+

Local Testing

Test fetching the documents locally (doesn't upload to S3):

python lambda_function.py

Deployment

Option 1: AWS SAM (Recommended)

1. Build the application:

   sam build

2. Deploy (first time - guided):

   sam deploy --guided

   You'll be prompted for:

   • Stack name (e.g., gdrivesync)
   • AWS Region
   • BucketName parameter (must be globally unique)

3. Deploy (subsequent):

   sam deploy

Option 2: Manual Deployment

1. Create the S3 bucket:

   aws s3 mb s3://your-bucket-name

2. Create a ZIP package:

   zip lambda.zip lambda_function.py

3. Create the Lambda function:

   aws lambda create-function \
     --function-name gdrivesync-function \
     --runtime python3.11 \
     --handler lambda_function.lambda_handler \
     --zip-file fileb://lambda.zip \
     --role arn:aws:iam::YOUR_ACCOUNT:role/YOUR_LAMBDA_ROLE \
     --timeout 60 \
     --memory-size 256 \
     --environment Variables="{S3_BUCKET_NAME=your-bucket-name}"

Manual Invocation

Trigger the Lambda manually:

aws lambda invoke \
  --function-name gdrivesync-function \
  --payload '{}' \
  response.json

cat response.json
