Call any existing AWS Lambda Function you have in a future time
aws-lambda-scheduler lets you call any existing AWS Lambda Function you have in the future.
This functionality is achieved by dynamically managing the EventBridge Rules.
aws-lambda-scheduler also has optimizations you can configure and extend yourself. AWS allows maximum of 300 EventBridge rules in a region. If you are expecting to create more than 300 rules, check out Optimizations section below.
Example Usage
When you set up the aws-lambda-scheduler in your AWS environment, you can simply call it with a json data like this:
{
"datetime_utc": "2030-12-30 20:20:20",
"lambda_function": "arn:aws:lambda:...........",
"data": {
"any": "json",
"is": "allowed"
}
}
aws-lambda-scheduler will create a EventBridge rule, and AWS will run the specified lambda_function at the datetime_utc with the given data.
It’s that simple. Just remember to convert your datetime to UTC+0 timezone. That’s the timezone supported by
