You have 2 ways of consuming those utilities:
- NPM modules
- Lambda Layer
The Powertools for AWS Lambda (TypeScript) utilities is packaged as a single AWS Lambda Layer
👉 Installation guide for the Powertools for AWS Lambda (TypeScript) layer
The Powertools for AWS Lambda (TypeScript) utilities follow a modular approach, similar to the official AWS SDK v3 for JavaScript.
Each TypeScript utility is installed as standalone NPM package.
Install all three core utilities at once with this single command:
npm install @aws-lambda-powertools/logger @aws-lambda-powertools/tracer @aws-lambda-powertools/metrics
Or refer to the installation guide of each utility:
👉 Installation guide for the Tracer utility
👉 Installation guide for the Logger utility
👉 Installation guide for the Metrics utility
👉 Installation guide for the Parameters utility
👉 Installation guide for the Idempotency utility
The Serverless TypeScript Demo shows how to use Powertools for AWS Lambda (TypeScript).
