Counter Function Setup

Update /hello_world/requirements.txt to include upstash-redis:

/hello_world/requirements.txt

requests
upstash-redis

Update /hello_world/app.py:

/hello_world/app.py

from upstash_redis import Redis

redis = Redis.from_env()

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    count = redis.incr('counter')
    return {
        'statusCode': 200,
        'body': f'Counter: {count}'
    }

Update /template.yaml to pass Upstash Redis environment variables:

/template.yaml

Database Setup

Create a Redis database using Upstash Console or Upstash CLI. Copy UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL and UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN for the next steps.

Build

sam build

Deploy

Enter your database related environment variables when prompted.
