The AWS IoT Greengrass Core SDK is meant to be used by AWS Lambda functions running on an AWS IoT Greengrass Core. It will enable Lambda functions to invoke other Lambda functions deployed to the Greengrass Core, publish messages to the Greengrass Core and work with the local Shadow service. To use the AWS IoT Greengrass Core SDK, you must first import the AWS IoT Greengrass Core SDK in your Lambda function as you would with any other external libraries. You then need to create a client for ‘iot-data’ or ‘lambda’. Use ‘iot-data’ if you wish to publish messages to the local Greengrass Core and interact with the local Shadow service. Use ‘lambda’ if you wish to invoke other Lambda functions deployed to the same Greengrass Core. As new features are added to AWS IoT Greengrass, newer versions of the AWS IoT Greengrass SDK may be incompatible with older versions of the AWS IoT Greengrass core.
