   lambder functions deploy

3. Invoke the sample Lambda function in AWS

Sharing your lambder function

If you decide to share your lambder function, you want to be sure you don't share the name of your s3 bucket. We suggest you add lambder.json to your .gitignore so it won't be commited to your repo. Instead, copy it to example_lambder.json and remove any secrets before pushing to a public repository.

Using virtualenvwrapper

Your Lambdas should be as small as possible to reduce spinup time. If you need to include extra python modules, use virtualenvwrapper. The deploy script will look for a site-packages directory in $WORKON_HOME/lambder-replicate-images and bundle those packages into the zip that it uploads to AWS Lambda.
