Gordon is a Python CLI tool for creating, wiring, and deploying AWS Lambda functions using CloudFormation. It supports multiple runtimes, local execution, and integrations with API Gateway, CloudWatch Events, DynamoDB Streams, Kinesis, and S3.

Use cases

  • deploy aws lambda functions with cloudformation
  • build serverless apis with api gateway and lambda
  • run lambda functions locally before deploying
  • wire lambda triggers from kinesis and dynamodb streams
  • manage multi-stage multi-region lambda deployments
  • schedule lambda functions with cloudwatch cron events

When to choose

  • you want a boilerplate-free, yml-configured CloudFormation-based Lambda deployment tool
  • you need multi-language Lambda support (Python, JS, Java, Go, Scala) with local testing
  • you prefer 100% CloudFormation-native resource creation

When to avoid

  • you need an actively maintained tool - the last release was April 2019
  • you prefer modern alternatives like AWS SAM, Serverless Framework, or CDK
  • you need Python 3.6+ support since it targets older Python versions
