Aws-toolkit-jetbrains: How do I integrate existing lambdas with the plugin?

How do I integrate existing lambdas with the plugin?

• OS: Ubuntu
• JetBrains product: pycharm
• JetBrains product version: 2019.3
• AWS Toolkit version: not shown in IDE (installed today)
• SAM CLI version: SAM CLI, version 0.43.0
• JVM/Python version: Python 3.8

Question

All of the documentation explains how to create new lambda using the plugin. Nothing explains how to integrated existing lambda projects.

Same issue. I have a number of lambdas already deployed to AWS and I want to work with them in IntelliJ IDEA. I can see them in the AWS Explorer pane, but I can't do anything with them in the IDE. Is there some sort of "import existing" functionality? If not, consider this a feature request

When using IntelliJ, I use the 'Jump to Source' & 'Update Function Code' functionality as shown in the attached screenshot. You get this menu by right-clicking on the name of the lambda. When I click the first, the IDE jumps to the corresponding handler method. When I click the second, it creates a new .jar file and uploads it to AWS.

I expect similar functionality for PyCharm.

I hope this helps.

For me, "Jump to Source" was disabled because the lambda was created in IntelliJ. See my comment on #1302 here https://github.com/aws/aws-toolkit-jetbrains/issues/1302#issuecomment-628165955. After following the steps in this workaround, "Jump to Source" became enabled.

The same issue. I cant transparently export existing lambda functions in pycharm. subscribed
