Wrapper for running lambda modules locally, remotely via http or from AWS during development

// Loads the module in myModule/mymod.js
var lambdaFunc = require('myModule/mymod.js');
var lambda = require('lambda-wrapper').wrap(lambdaFunc);

var lambda = require('lambda-wrapper').wrap('https://my-lambda-service/');

var lambda = require('lambda-wrapper').wrap({
    region: 'eu-west-1',
    lambdaFunction: 'myFunctionName'
});

var event = { key1: 'val1', key2: val2 };
lambda.run(event, function(err, data) {
    if (err) {
        ... handle error
    }
    ... process data returned by the Lambda function
})

If you want to pass a custom context to the Lambda module (only when running local), use the runHandler method. e.g.

lambda.runHandler(event, customContext, callback)

Accessing a lambda running as a remote service can be useful when calling lambdas that sit in different projects. E.g. Node Project A invokes Lambda in Project B. Using e.g. serverless-offline-direct-lambda, the lambda can be wrapped in an http server and called from project A.

Documentation for valid propreties in the Lambda context object are documented here https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/nodejs-prog-model-context.html

Exceptions from within the module will be returned as errors via the callback / promise.

Please run module tests in a Node 4 environment prior to submitting PRs using

npm run test

Live lambda run test requires that the function in lambdaWrapper-test.js is deployed to your AWS account as 'lambdaWrapper-test'.
