Phase 2
So this article follows on from part one which you can read here: http://dale-dev.blogspot.com/2019/01/holiday-price-scraper-serverless.html, in phase 2 I want to accomplish the following things...
- The function in AWS is not working when running when triggered by the timer, this needs resolving.
- The function in AWS is not persisting the history of retrieved prices, I will be creating a DynamoDB DAO to persist this data.
- Search criteria to be persisted as saved searches rather than hard coded.
AWS Trigger issue
The timer job I set up in AWS which triggers the function fails, the error from the log shows the following...

From that, it's showing that there is a problem de-serializing the input from the trigger. I didn't actually configure an input, I assumed a null value would be passed and everything would be ok but I assumed wrong (What's that they say about assumptions?).
So going back into AWS, I can see there is an option to configure the input passed from the cloud event so I made the following change
DynamoDB Persistence
Setup
Under DynamoDB, I have selected "Create Table" and enter the following...
| Table Name : | PriceHistory |
| Primary key : | searchUUID |
New DynamoDB DAO
Following this guide: https://www.javaworld.com/article/3248595/application-development/serverless-computing-with-aws-lambda-part-2.amp.html I created the following code
pom.xml
DynamoDBPriceStoreDao
Got the following error when running the function in AWS ...

The lambda function required the role is assigned to have AmazonDynamoDBFullAccess granted, I added this in the AWS IAM (Identity and Access Management) area.
Persist Search Criteria
I modified the JSON document to also hold the search criteria as well as the history of price changes, example content... {

Other Changes
I did a pretty major refactor of my project, I split my code into a multi-module project, the issue I was having was that I was bundling the controller code for running the app locally in the AWS build, when running locally, the way I had it setup wouldn't compile as there were AWS dependencies that where mandatory which weren't included in a local build so I was getting errors.
New structure...
| Module Name | Description |
| holiday-price-scraper-aws | DynamoDB implementation for persistence, Spring cloud function adapter for AWS. |
| holiday-price-scraper-boot | Main application, business logic |
| holiday-price-scraper-local-rest | File system implementation for persistence, REST API to test locally |
| holiday-price-scraper-persistence | Contains domain objects and DAO interfaces |
Source Code
What's Next in Part 3
The desire is to be able to deploy this to other FaaS providers, but before I tackle Azure, I would like to tidy up some loose ends first...
- AWS fails to send emails via Gmail, I have allowed insecure apps in Gmail enabled and still email fails to send, will setup sending emails using SES.
- Implement email templates to use when sending an email with all the data that I would like to see.
- Handle when the holiday is no longer available.
- Complete README.md file
