To implement this project, you need to implement a simple TODO application using AWS Lambda and Serverless framework. Search for all comments starting with the TODO: in the code to find the placeholders that you need to implement.

This application will allow creating/removing/updating/fetching TODO items. Each TODO item can optionally have an attachment image. Each user only has access to TODO items that he/she has created.

To implement this project, you need to implement the following functions and configure them in the serverless.yml file:

• Auth - this function should implement a custom authorizer for API Gateway that should be added to all other functions.

• GetTodos - should return all TODOs for a current user. A user id can be extracted from a JWT token that is sent by the frontend

It should return data that looks like this:

{
  "items": [
    {
      "todoId": "123",
      "createdAt": "2019-07-27T20:01:45.424Z",
      "name": "Buy milk",
      "dueDate": "2019-07-29T20:01:45.424Z",
      "done": false,
      "attachmentUrl": "http://example.com/image.png"
    },
    {
      "todoId": "456",
      "createdAt": "2019-07-27T20:01:45.424Z",
      "name": "Send a letter",
      "dueDate": "2019-07-29T20:01:45.424Z",
      "done": true,
      "attachmentUrl": "http://example.com/image.png"
    },
  ]
}

• CreateTodo - should create a new TODO for a current user. A shape of data send by a client application to this function can be found in the CreateTodoRequest.ts file

It receives a new TODO item to be created in JSON format that looks like this:

{
  "createdAt": "2019-07-27T20:01:45.424Z",
  "name": "Buy milk",
  "dueDate": "2019-07-29T20:01:45.424Z",
  "done": false,
  "attachmentUrl": "http://example.com/image.png"
}

It should return a new TODO item that looks like this:

{
  "item": {
    "todoId": "123",
    "createdAt": "2019-07-27T20:01:45.424Z",
    "name": "Buy milk",
    "dueDate": "2019-07-29T20:01:45.424Z",
    "done": false,
    "attachmentUrl": "http://example.com/image.png"
  }
}

• UpdateTodo - should update a TODO item created by a current user. A shape of data send by a client application to this function can be found in the UpdateTodoRequest.ts file

It receives an object that contains three fields that can be updated in a TODO item:

{
  "name": "Buy bread",
  "dueDate": "2019-07-29T20:01:45.424Z",
  "done": true
}

The id of an item that should be updated is passed as a URL parameter.

It should return an empty body.

• DeleteTodo - should delete a TODO item created by a current user. Expects an id of a TODO item to remove.

It should return an empty body.

• GenerateUploadUrl - returns a pre-signed URL that can be used to upload an attachment file for a TODO item.

It should return a JSON object that looks like this:

{
  "uploadUrl": "https://s3-bucket-name.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/image.png"
}

All functions are already connected to appropriate events from API Gateway.

An id of a user can be extracted from a JWT token passed by a client.

You also need to add any necessary resources to the resources section of the serverless.yml file such as DynamoDB table and S3 bucket.

The client folder contains a web application that can use the API that should be developed in the project.

This frontend should work with your serverless application once it is developed, you don't need to make any changes to the code. The only file that you need to edit is the config.ts file in the client folder. This file configures your client application just as it was done in the course and contains an API endpoint and Auth0 configuration:

const apiId = '...' API Gateway id
export const apiEndpoint = `https://${apiId}.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/dev`

export const authConfig = {
  domain: '...',    // Domain from Auth0
  clientId: '...',  // Client id from an Auth0 application
  callbackUrl: 'http://localhost:3000/callback'
}

To implement authentication in your application, you would have to create an Auth0 application and copy "domain" and "client id" to the config.ts file in the client folder. We recommend using asymmetrically encrypted JWT tokens.

To deploy an application run the following commands:

cd backend
npm install
npm install -g serverless
sls deploy -v

To run a client application first edit the client/src/config.ts file to set correct parameters. And then run the following commands:

cd client
npm install
npm run start
