Hello,

I am trying to use Bugsnag to diagnose issues with my AWS Lambda Function which runs ruby code. I use the Serverless framework to deploy my function, which runs on a cron timer every 15 minutes.

Unfortunately when I include this library, the function fails to run. Here is the relevant log line from CloudWatch logs:

{
    "errorMessage": "cannot load such file -- bugsnag",
    "errorType": "Init<LoadError>",
    "stackTrace": [
        "/var/lang/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.7.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:85:in `require'",
        "/var/lang/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.7.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:85:in `require'",
        "/var/task/src/squawker/bugsnag.rb:3:in `<top (required)>'",
        "/var/task/src/squawker.rb:5:in `require_relative'",
        "/var/task/src/squawker.rb:5:in `<top (required)>'",
        "/var/task/src/handlers/squawker/cron.rb:3:in `require_relative'",
        "/var/task/src/handlers/squawker/cron.rb:3:in `<top (required)>'",
        "/var/lang/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.7.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:85:in `require'",
        "/var/lang/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.7.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:85:in `require'"
    ]
}

I believe this is because the bugsnag gem depends on concurrent-ruby, which includes native C code that must be compiled. The AWS Lambda Runtime does not handle native code by default, it must be packaged into a docker file.

Does the Bugsnag gem require concurrent-ruby as a runtime dependency? If that dependency could be eliminated, the gem could be used by default in an AWS lambda context. In the meantime, I will pursue the workaround of building a Docker container on top of the AWS base image for Lambda.

For reference, here are the relevant parts of my serverless.yml file

Hi @gburgett - concurrent-ruby is currently a runtime dependency. We do have an item on our backlog already to look at official support for AWS Lambdas with Ruby in the future - I'll make sure we keep this thread updated on that 👍
