I implemented a AWS lambda function which shall pass an Alexa custom skill event to my domain for processing, see code below.
const https = require('https');
exports.handler = (event, context, callback) => {
var options = {
hostname: '<my.domain.com>',
path: '/<mypath>',
port: 443,
method: 'POST',
rejectUnauthorized: false,
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': '<my base64 user:password>'
}
};
const req = https.request(options, (res) => {
let body = '';
console.log('Status:', res.statusCode);
console.log('Headers:', JSON.stringify(res.headers));
res.setEncoding('utf8');
res.on('data', (chunk) => {
body += chunk;
});
res.on('end', () => {
console.log('Successfully processed HTTPS response');
body = JSON.parse(body);
callback(null, body);
});
});
req.on('error', callback);
req.write(JSON.stringify(event));
req.end();
};
The function runs serverless, not connected to a VPC.
The domain <my.domain.com> resolves to an IPv6 address and I am able to connect to my host for example from an internet instance using curl and receive the expected answers.
curl -i -k -v -X POST -d testcase.json -u user:password https://<my.domain.com>:<my port>/<my path>
In AWS I implemented a test case and run it. The test returned the error ENOTFOUND from function getaddrinfo trying to resolve my domain, see execution result below.
Test Event Name
Test0001

"errorType": "Error",
"errorMessage": "getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND <my.domain.com>",
"trace": [
"Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND <my.domain.com>",

]
}

During my investigation I found the hint to add option „family: 6,“. Using this option the test case resolves the domain now to the correct ipv6 address, but returns then EAFNOSUPPORT trying to connect to the address, see execution result below.

Any further investigation was not successful. I assume it is an issue using IPv6, but I am not able to solve it. Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
