Pandas & AWS Lambda

Question

Does anyone have a fully compiled version of pandas that is compatible with AWS Lambda?

After searching around for a few hours, I cannot seem to find what I\'m looki

Answer 1

# all the step are done in AWS EC2 Linux Free tier so that all the Libraries  are compatible with the Lambda environment

# install the required packages
mkdir packages
pip3 install -t . pandas
pip3 install -t . numpy --upgrade
pip3 install -t . wikipedia --upgrade
pip3 install -t . sklearn --upgrade
pip3 install -t . pickle-mixin --upgrade
pip3 install -t . fuzzywuzzy --upgrade


# Now remove all unnecessary files
sudo rm -r *.whl *.dist-info __pycache__

# Now make a DIR so that lambda function can reconginzes
sudo mkdir -p build/python/lib/python3.6/site-packages


# Now move all the files from packages folder to site-packages folder 
sudo mv /home/ec2-user/packages/*  build/python/lib/python3.6/site-packages/

# Now move to the build packages
cd build

# Now zip all the files starting from python folder to site-packages
sudo zip -r python.zip .

upload the zip file to lambda layers
