Current packs
Selenium PhantomJS
Intro
Selenium on PhantomJS. In fact - a ready-made tool for web scraping. For example, the demo now opens a random page in Wikipedia and sends its header. (PhantomJS at the same time disguises itself as a normal browser, knows how to log in, click and fill out forms) Also added requests, so you can do API requests for different resources to discard / take away the information.
Useful for web testing and scraping.
Demo
Current demo opens random page from wiki (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random) and prints title.
Serverless start
git clone https://github.com/ryfeus/lambda-packs.git
cd lambda-packs/Selenium_PhantomJS/source/
serverless deploy
serverless invoke --function main --log
You can also see the results from the API Gateway endpoint in a web browser.

Pyresttest + WRK
Intro
What does the lambda have to do with it? In a nutshell on AWS in one region you can simultaneously run 200 lambdas (more if you write to support). Lambda works in 11 regions. So you can run in parallel more than 2000 lambdas, each of which will conduct load testing of your service. Five minutes of such testing will cost just one dollar.
Demo
Demo in this package tries to send requests to github.com for 5 seconds with 1 connection and also conduct pyresttest dummy test.
Tools
- WRK (https://github.com/wg/wrk) - the main tool for load testing. It works with multiple threads, you can specify the number of connections and length of the load. For more fine-tuning, you can use LuaJIT scripts (https://www.lua.org/).
- Pyrestest (https://github.com/svanoort/pyresttest) is a handy tool for testing the full pipeline of the API. For example, the user registers, then uses the api key to create tasks / make notes / downloads files, then reads them, then deletes them.

Lxml + requests
Intro
Package for parsing static HTML pages. Difference here is that it works faster and consumes less memory than PhantomJS but is limited in terms websites it can parse and other features.
Serverless start
serverless install -u https://github.com/ryfeus/lambda-packs/tree/master/Lxml_requests/source -n lxml-requests
cd lxml-requests
serverless deploy
serverless invoke --function main --log
Build pack
wget https://github.com/ryfeus/lambda-packs/blob/master/Lxml_requests/buildPack.sh
docker pull amazonlinux:latest
docker run -v $(pwd):/outputs --name lambdapackgen -d amazonlinux:latest tail -f /dev/null
docker exec -i -t lambdapackgen /bin/bash /outputs/buildPack.sh
Tools
Lxml 3.7.1
Documentation
Tensorflow
Intro
Open source library for Machine Intelligence. Basically revolutionized AI and made it more accessible. Using tensorflow on lambda is not as bad as it may sound - for some simple models it is the simplest and the cheapest way to deploy.
Demo
As hello world code I used recognition of images trained on imagenet (https://www.tensorflow.org/tutorials/image_recognition). Given the price tag lambda one run (recognition of one picture) will cost $0.00005. Therefore for a dollar you can recognize 20,000 images. It is much cheaper than almost any alternatives, though completely scalable (200 functions can be run in parallel), and can be easily integrated into cloud infrastructure. Current demo downloads image from link 'imagelink' from event source ( if empty - then downloads https://s3.amazonaws.com/ryfeuslambda/tensorflow/imagenet/cropped_panda.jpg)
Tools
Tensorflow 1.4.0
Documentation
https://www.tensorflow.org/tutorials/image_recognition
Nightly version
Nightly version archive is more than 50 MB in size but it is still eligible for using with AWS Lambda (though you need to upload pack through S3). For more read here:

Serverless start
serverless install -u https://github.com/ryfeus/lambda-packs/tree/master/tensorflow/source -n tensorflow
cd tensorflow
serverless deploy
serverless invoke --function main --log
