./generate_lookup.py

Then create a deployment ZIP file for lambda:

./create_lambda_deployment

How to set up Lambda

• Create a Lambda deployment ZIP file
• Create a new Lambda function
  • Handler: "main.lambda_handler"
  • Role: "lamda_basic_execution"
  • Event source: "Alexa Skills Kit"
• You can test it with the following basic event:

{
  "session": {
    "new": true,
    "sessionId": "session1234",
    "attributes": {},
    "user": {
      "userId": null
    },
    "application": {
      "applicationId": "amzn1.echo-sdk-ams.app.[unique-value-here]"
    }
  },
  "version": "1.0",
  "request": {
    "type": "LaunchRequest",
    "requestId": "request5678"
  }
}

• Now go to https://developer.amazon.com/edw/home.html#/skills/list
• Create a new skill
  • Name: "Code Phrase Generator"
  • Invocation name: "for a code phrase"
  • Version: "1.0"
  • Endpoint: Lambda ARN
  • The intent schema is:

{
    "intents": [
        {
            "intent": "GetCodePhrase"
        }
    ]
}

-   Sample utterances:

GetCodePhrase for a code phrase
GetCodePhrase for a phrase
GetCodePhrase for a code
GetCodePhrase for a code word
GetCodePhrase for a codeword
