wkhtmltopdf AWS Lambda

Lambda Layer

Build layer:

$ make build/wkhtmltox-layer.zip

# to test your build run
$ make test.wkhtmltox

Keep in mind that you wkhtmltox contains both pdf and image rendering tools, if you need only pdf rendering use make build/wkhtmltopdf-layer.zip, of images make build/wkhtmltoimage-layer.zip this will reduce the size of the layer.

Deploy layer:

$ aws lambda publish-layer-version \
    --region <region> \
    --layer-name <name> \
    --zip-file fileb://build/wkhtmltox-layer.zip
