  • Deploys (creates AWS Lambda Functions) for project Lambda(s) using built Lambda Function deploy packages
• delete
  • Deletes the AWS Lambda Functions for the project Lambda(s)
• add_event_sources
  • Adds Event Sources to the AWS Lambda Functions for the project Lambda(s)
• remove_event_sources

  ./my-other-lambit-project
    ...

• 'function' directory should contain any function code (required)
