Hi ProductHunters 👋
This is Serkan, co-founder and CTO at Thundra. I’m a AWS Hero and enthusiast with serverless technologies for quite time. Since the beginning, there was plenty of challenges, and solving those challenges has always been a passion for me. That’s why we’ve built MerLoc.
MerLoc is a live AWS Lambda function development and debugging tool. MerLoc allows you to run AWS Lambda functions on your local while they are still part of a flow in the AWS cloud remote.
With the help of MerLoc, you don’t need to
- deploy your function to test
- add debug log statements around code to debug your function
- re-deploy after every change to check and verify whether it fixes the bug
- run the function as standalone (without being part of the flow shown above) locally in Docker and prepare/provide the input manually
MerLoc makes it possible to
- test your function locally without deploy to the AWS Lambda environment (so no wait for build, package and deploy)
- debug your function by putting breakpoints from your IDE
- hot-reload updated function on your local automatically to apply changes automatically (so again no wait for build, package and deploy)
- run the individual function locally while it is still part of flow shown above and use real requests from the AWS Lambda environment
It’s open-source and I’d be glad to hear your thoughts!
See you!
