Deez

A little library to simplify building small APIs on top of AWS Lambda and API Gateway.

This library is still in development. It is sufficient for ProdPerfect's needs but it may not be for yours. Use at your own risk.

Getting Started

Requirements

• Python 3.9+
• Blinker 1.4+

Installation

pip install deez

Creating a resource

Your resource must implement at least one HTTP verb (get, post, put, etc.,)

from deez.resource import Resource
from deez.response import JsonResponse


class MyResource(Resource):
    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        return JsonResponse(data={'message': 'hello world'})

Example of how to use

app.py

from deez import Deez
from deez.resource import Resource
from deez.response import JsonResponse
from deez.urls import path


class HelloWorldView(Resource):
    def get(self, request, *args, **kwargs):
        return JsonResponse(data={'message': 'hello world'})


app = Deez()
app.register_route(path("hello/world", HelloWorldView))

# or you can use regex
app.register_route(r'^hello/world$', HelloWorldView)


`middleware.py`

```python
from deez.middleware import Middleware


class User:
    # fake user object
    pass

class AuthMiddleware(Middleware):
    def before_request(self, request):
        # perhaps you want to authenticate the user and attach it to the request object
        request.user = User() 
        return request

settings.py

# middleware runs before views are called and before the response is returned
# so you can manipulate the response and requests objects.
MIDDLEWARE = ['middleware.AuthMiddleware']

handler.py

from app import app

def handle_event(event, context):
    return app.process_request(event, context)

Signals

Deez supports signals. Signals are a way to hook into the request/response lifecycle. This can be useful for logging metrics or doing other things such as managing database connections.

from deez.core.signals import request_finished, request_started


@request_started.connect
def my_callback(sender, **kwargs):
    print('request started')


@request_finished.connect
def my_other_callback(sender, **kwargs):
    print('request finished')
