A Hubot script for invoking AWS Lambda functions

• Separate invocation privileges from execution privileges.
• New languages will almost certainly be added to AWS Lambda, in this case hubot-lambda would enable easy cross language Hubot integrations. (Amazon recently announced that support for Java Lambda functions are coming soon. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-lambda-update-production-status-and-a-focus-on-mobile-apps/)
• Potentially a robust mechanism for enabling ad-hoc hubot script additions/modifications without recycling the hubot process. (I'd like some feedback on this one)

Add hubot-lambda to your package.json, run npm install and add hubot-lambda to external-scripts.json.

Add hubot-lambda to your package.json dependencies.

"dependencies": {
  "hubot-lambda": "0.0.0"
}

Add hubot-lambda to external-scripts.json.

> cat external-scripts.json
> ["hubot-lambda"]

> export HUBOT_LAMBDA_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="XXXX"
> export HUBOT_LAMBDA_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="XXXX"
