Building

The endpoint won't build with just Cargo, due to the legendary openssl problem on aws lambda.

But there's a quick fix.

Download spice C toolkit.

build as

CSPICE_DIR=~/blah cargo build

Running

This being built on SPICE, you'll need the most up to date datasets on solar system emphemeris. The list of kernels to find is in src/main.rs, and you can get them via the naif website above. They should be placed in data/, and are not included here because they are massive.
