No proper docs yet, but you can figure it out from the go example.

FYI, based upon what I could find, it is using Amazon Linux[0] x64.
So because right now we cannot cross compile really, linux has to be host OS to build these with D, locally atleast.

Please take the time to write the damn docs and a small article.
If you don't know where to host it, you can write a guest entry on my blog https://code.dawg.eu/.

Since you took the time to help me, I will do, Martin.  But it may take me a little while due to health things and personal commitments, and I wanted to put something up whilst it was fresh.  'Mathematically trivial', but took me a while of fiddling around to get it to work.


Laeeth.

I guess you are right, and I should make that clear in the writeup.  On the other hand, it's not very difficult to find an inexpensive linux virtual machine (and AWS is one way, although digital ocean seem the best value solid solution) to build it.

(I also wanted to figure out how to get static linking of phobos working first, as putting libraries in the zip doesn't seem a solid solution.  All this stuff is second nature to anyone who has been programming the past twenty years, but when I learnt C unix machines were expensive and not available to me and I barely used linux till 18 months ago.  So linker and compilation switches and linking models in general are still a bit mysterious to me).

https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2015/10/aws-lambda-supports-python-versioning-scheduled-jobs-and-5-minute-functions/

Now runs functions taking up to 5 minutes.  Also Python tasks.  (Already can run D - see above)
