Description

Geek Cafe Services is a production-ready, enterprise-grade library that provides reusable database services specifically designed for multi-tenant SaaS applications. Built on top of AWS DynamoDB, this library offers a prescriptive approach to building scalable, maintainable backend services with consistent patterns and best practices.

Why Geek Cafe Services?

🏗️ Consistent Architecture: All services follow the same proven patterns for CRUD operations, error handling, and access control
🔒 Multi-Tenant by Design: Built-in tenant isolation ensures secure data separation across customers
DynamoDB Optimized: Leverages DynamoDB's strengths with efficient GSI indexes and query patterns
🛡️ Production Ready: Comprehensive error handling, logging, pagination, and batch operations
🧪 Fully Tested: 100% test coverage with comprehensive test suites for reliability
📖 Well Documented: Extensive documentation with practical examples and best practices

Perfect For

  • SaaS Applications requiring multi-tenant data isolation
  • Serverless Architectures built on AWS Lambda and DynamoDB
  • Teams wanting consistent, proven patterns across services
  • Rapid Development with pre-built, tested service components

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/geekcafe/geek-cafe-services.git
cd geek-cafe-services

# Setup the development environment
./pysetup.sh

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

Quick Start

from geek_cafe_saas_sdk.message_service import MessageService

# Initialize service
service = MessageService()

# Create a message
result = service.create(
    tenant_id="your_tenant",
    user_id="your_user",
    type="notification",
    content={"title": "Welcome!", "body": "Thanks for joining us."}
)

if result.success:
    print(f"Created message: {result.data.id}")

Available Services

🚀 Lambda Handler Wrappers (NEW in v0.2.0)

Purpose: Eliminate 70-80% of boilerplate code in AWS Lambda functions

Key Capabilities:

  • ✅ Automatic API key validation from environment
  • ✅ Request body parsing and camelCase → snake_case conversion
  • ✅ Service initialization with connection pooling for warm starts
  • ✅ Built-in CORS and error handling
  • ✅ User context extraction from authorizers
  • ✅ Service injection for easy testing
  • ✅ Support for public and secured endpoints

Available Handlers:

  • ApiKeyLambdaHandler - API key validation (most common)
  • PublicLambdaHandler - No authentication (config endpoints)
  • BaseLambdaHandler - Extensible base for custom handlers

Quick Example:

from geek_cafe_saas_sdk.lambda_handlers import ApiKeyLambdaHandler
from geek_cafe_saas_sdk.vote_service import VoteService

# All boilerplate handled in 3 lines
handler = ApiKeyLambdaHandler(
    service_class=VoteService,
    require_body=True,
    convert_case=True
)

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    return handler.execute(event, context, create_vote)

def create_vote(event, service, user_context):
    # Just your business logic - everything else is handled!
    payload = event["parsed_body"]  # Already parsed & converted
    return service.create_vote(
        tenant_id=user_context.get("tenant_id", "anonymous"),
        user_id=user_context.get("user_id", "anonymous"),
        **payload
    )

Use Cases: Any AWS Lambda function with API key auth, reducing code by 70-80% while maintaining all functionality
