Hi all.

doing a simple :  
from confluent\_kafka import Producer, KafkaError, KafkaException

is to easy… as i some how need to make the library available to the Lambda container.  
is anyone aware if there is a ARN object that can be included as a Layer or how can I install the confluent\_kafka\*

See Thread: [AWS Confluent based layer for Lambda usage](https://forum.confluent.io/t/aws-confluent-based-layer-for-lambda-usage/8174/2)

for solution.

for some background, I’m working on a M1 based MAC… which just made everything/ transportability of libraries a bit more difficult.
