Can bash script be written inside a AWS Lambda function

Question

Can I write a bash script inside a Lambda function? I read in the aws docs that it can execute code written in Python, NodeJS and Java 8.

It is mentioned in some doc

Answer 1

I just was able to capture a shell command uname output using Amazon Lambda - Python.

Below is the code base.

from __future__ import print_function

import json
import commands

print('Loading function')

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    print(commands.getstatusoutput('uname -a'))

It displayed the output
