Use this node.js snippet to get Lambda execution of a bash command. In this case bash is just doing a curl to a URL. You could also write an entire bash script and call it.
var child_process = require('child_process');
exports.handler = function(event, context) {
var child = child_process.spawn('/bin/bash', [ '-c', 'curl --silent --output - --max-time 1 https://fordodone.com/jobtrigger || true' ], { stdio: 'inherit' });
child.on('close', function(code) {
if(code !== 0) {
return context.done(new Error("non zero process exit code"));
}
context.done(null);
});
}
