:rocket: Feature Request

Description

We want to use the new HTTP API with AWS Lambda because it’s simpler, lower latency, and faster, but it’s not documented

Proposed Solution

A construct to deploy a simple lambda with http api (node js)

Docs: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/http-api.html

announced a few weeks ago: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/announcing-http-apis-for-amazon-api-gateway/

APIGatewayV2 was just split into its own package today

Because this is an experimental module, you would most likely need to use the underlying L1 Constructs to build an API Gateway HTTP API. Given that the feature itself is still in Beta preview and may experience breaking changes, I would doubt many people would be willing to do the work to build solid Construct on top of it until it goes GA.

Hey @bionicles, Richard is correct in that a specific L1 construct implementation doesnt make a lot of sense for an example for the moment. That said, I think once there is an L2 for ApiGatewayV2, this is a perfect example to add.

With that in mind, Im going to delay this for execution once the L2 is completed

Yet there is not an example? :cry:

[ghost]

can someone provide example for "custom lambda authorizer with http api"

CDK API Docs has example https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/v2/docs/aws-cdk-lib.aws_apigatewayv2-readme.html
