Traccar on AWS Lambda

This project runs Traccar on AWS Lambda, processing requests and returning responses.

Environment Variables

The following environment variables are required:

• S3_BUCKET_NAME: The name of the S3 bucket where response files will be uploaded.

Response Handling

This Lambda function handles responses differently based on their size:

For responses larger than 6MB:

1. Compresses the response data
2. Uploads it to the specified S3 bucket
3. Returns a JSON object with a pre-signed URL to the uploaded file:

   {
     "url": "https://your-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/response-uuid.gz?..."
   }

   The pre-signed URL is valid for 1 hour by default.

For responses 6MB or smaller:

1. Compresses the response data
2. Returns the compressed data directly in the response body
3. Sets appropriate headers (Content-Encoding: gzip)

Deployment

Make sure to:

1. Create an S3 bucket for storing the response files
2. Set the S3_BUCKET_NAME environment variable in your Lambda function configuration
3. Ensure the Lambda execution role has permissions to write to the specified S3 bucket
