AWS Lambda Resource Leak Detector
npm install lambda-leak
Simple utility to detect resource leaks in AWS Lambda handlers using Node.js that
can lead to expensive charges lengthy operations or failures from timeouts.
npm install lambda-leak
The lambda-leak detector should be used within a unit testing environment, like mocha, to capture and diagnose potential resource leaks. The
following example demonstrates how to use the leak detector inside a unit test.
``js
'use strict';
const lambdaLeak = require( 'lambda-leak' );
const handler = require( 'my-lambda-handler-module' );
describe( 'myModule', function() {
describe( 'handler', function() {
it( 'detect leak in my handler', function( done ) {
const state = lambdaLeak.capture();
handler( {/ event/, { / context /}, function( err, result ) {
if( err ) {
return done( err );
}
let difference = state..getDifferenceInHandles();
if( difference.length > 0 ) {
console.log( 'leaks', difference );
// leaks detected
done( new Error( 'leaks detected' ) );
}
done();
});
});
});
});
