Bun - fast JavaScript all-in-one toolkit
View All Tags
When I created @beesolve/lambda-bun-runtime I mostly did it because it seems that the Lambda is very low on the Bun priority list and I wanted to have something which is up to date where I can fix the bugs quickly. I also wanted to provide better DX and tooling built around the CDK.
After using it for a while I realized that the approach of the official Bun's custom layer for Lambda does not align with my mindset.
Two weeks ago I've published Lambda Bun Runtime and Lambda Keep Active CDK constructs which you can download and install from npm. I've also written about those in their respective articles.
Since there is strong community build around Constructs Hub I wanted my constructs to be available there as well. Unfortunatelly for me you need to use projen in order to be picked up by Construct Hub. So I have converted my repositories to projen repositories. This article is about my thorny path.
What is Bun and why you should use it? Also everything is more fun with AWS Lambda, right?
When I was trying Bun S3 client for the first time I was surprised that there is no option to pass AWS profile name as credentials. This post is just a quick memo for me to remember how this can be achieved.
