Connecting Snowpark to AWS Lambda locally using LocalStack

This example demonstrates how to connect Snowpark to AWS Lambda locally using LocalStack. Snowpark allows you to query, process, and transform data in a variety of ways using Snowpark Python. In this example, we create a Lambda function that uses Snowpark to:

• Establish a connection to a local Snowflake database provided by LocalStack.
• Create a cursor object and execute a simple query to create a table.
• Insert rows and execute an insert query with executemany and a query to select data from the table.
• Fetch the results and execute a query to get the current timestamp.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10 installed locally
• localstack CLI with LOCALSTACK_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable set
• LocalStack Snowflake emulator

Instructions

Install the dependencies

Run the following command to install the dependencies:

make install

Start the LocalStack container

Start LocalStack:

make start-localstack

Create the Lambda function

You can create the Lambda function using the following command:

make zip
make create-function

Invoke the Lambda function

Invoke the Lambda function using the following command:

make local-invoke

Open the output.txt file to see the results of the Lambda function.

{"statusCode": 200, "body": "Successfully connected to Snowflake and inserted rows!"}

In the LocalStack logs (with DEBUG=1), you can see the Snowflake queries executed by the Lambda function.
