serverless-watchlist

Test project to create a fully server-less application on AWS combining S3, Lambda, API Gateway and DynamoDB

Current Tech

• Lambdas: Serverless framework used to manage and deploy to AWS
• Lambdas: serverless-webpack used to optimise uploaded code
• API Gateway: configured manually
• DynamoDB: table created manually
• IAM: Custom IAM role in serverless config to provide access to specific DynamoDB table

Exposed endpoints:

• GET: /omdb/search/{query}/{page}
  Test: https://api.kimmr.com/omdb/search/predator
  Queries OMDB database with path parameter as search term

• GET: /watchlist
  Test: https://api.kimmr.com/watchlist
  Retrieves all watchlist items.
  Results are currently not paginated or limited

• POST: /watchlist
  Test: https://api.kimmr.com/watchlist
  Add a new item to the watchlist
  Must contain 'id' param in json post body
  Returns 400 error when item already exists

• GET: /watchlist/{item}
  Test: https://api.kimmr.com/watchlist/tt0093770
  Retrieves details of specified item
  Returns 400 error when item does not exist

• DELETE: /watchlist/{item}
  Removes the specified item from the watchlist
  Returns 400 error when item does not exist

Feature Roadmap

• Create simple UI to manage watchlist and add items directly from OMDB search results
• Add CF script to create the DynamoDB table
• Add CF script to define and configure the API Gateway endpoints
