AWS Lambda JWT authenticaiton

AWS API Gateway has the ability to pre-authenticate connections prior to launching the endpoint, by passing the authorizationToken to a Lambda function. There are clear benefits for simplifying end point security and also a reduction in duplicated code by utilising this feature. However I found the AWS examples were excessively complicated for what should be a very simple task.
So here's my example.

The main concern is that AWS Lambda authentication expects a very specific response and if that response is not given it will throw a 500 error with x-amzn-ErrorType: AuthorizerConfigurationException in the response header if the response object is not exactly as expected.

Usage

I personally use to handle the publishing part of my Lambdas, but I'll include an image of the API Gateway config.

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

	After automatically updating Postgres to 10.0 via Homebrew, the pg_ctl start command didn't work.
	The error was "The data directory was initialized by PostgreSQL version 9.6, which is not compatible with this version 10.0."

	Database files have to be updated before starting the server, here are the steps that had to be followed:

	# need to have both 9.6.x and latest 10.0 installed, and keep 10.0 as default
	brew unlink postgresql
	brew install [email protected]
	brew unlink [email protected]
