Run Swift on Amazon Linux

⚠️ With Swift now officially supporting Amazon Linux 2 this project is not updated anymore. It remains here for the time being and will be removed eventually.

I provide Swift binaries that can be installed on Amazon Linux 2. Based of these binaries I also offer Dockerimages for your convenience at DockerHub and AWS Lambda layers to run your Swift executables natively in Lambda. The layers can be downloaded from S3 or can directly be utilized in your preferred region by accessing the Swift layer's arn.

All scripts and Dockerfiles involved in building the artifacts are public on GitHub. Feel free to use them in whatever way you want. If you run into any problems, please reach out via GitHub issues.

Please note: The Lambda layer does not include a bootstrap file.

You can use the Swift Lambda Layer with my custom Swift Lambda Runtime that is available on GitHub.
