Create a complete Alexa skill with AWS or ASK CLI

90 Views Asked by At

Is it possible to create a custom Alexa skill with the back-end Lambda (code) completely from AWS/ASK CLI? The Lambda interacts with DynamoDB, so it would be ideal to include the provisioning of the DynamoDB backend via the CLI too.

Yes, it's very much possible. Here is the documentation. If you use Visual Studio Code then there is an extension that integrates ask cli with it.

It's not possible to do it with DynamoDB provisioning (otherwise, yes, please check this page). Here's a feature request for supporting DynamoDB provisioning in the CLI (please vote up!)
