Lambdalizator

If you want to work with Lambdalizator in Python 3.8, consider using version 0.5.19.
If you want to work with Lambdalizator in Python 3.9, consider using version 0.6.7.

AWS Lambda Toolbox inspired by Flask. Currently supporting:

REST API
Event API (AWS Event Bridge)
Lambda API

Authentication

Lambdalizator can automatically read the value of the Authentication HTTP header and transform it into the User object that is available as a part of the request. The Authentication header must contain a JWT token that will be verified using one of the configured public keys (see Configuration below). The User object will have properties corresponding to the key-value pairs from the token's data.

To enable authentication provide a value for either ALLOWED_PUBLIC_KEYS or ALLOWED_AUDIENCES environment variables.

Configuration

Lambdalizator can be configured using the following environment variables:

Authorization configuration

ALLOWED_PUBLIC_KEYS - a list of public keys that can be used for decoding auth tokens send in the Authentication and Authorization headers. If you are using Cognito, you can use public keys from: https://cognito-idp.{your aws region}.amazonaws.com/{your pool id}/.well-known/jwks.json.
ALLOWED_AUDIENCES - a list of audiences that will be used for verifying the JWTs send in the Authentication and Authorization headers. It should be a comma-separated list of strings, e.g. aud1,aud2. If not set, any audience will be considered valid.
ALLOWED_ISS - allowed issuer of JWT - Security feature. If not set, issuer will not be checked.
AUTH_REMOVE_PREFIXES - if enabled, all fields starting with a prefix (like cognito:) in the auth token will have the prefix removed. Defaults to False (set as "0" or "1").

Lambdalizator configuration

LOGGING_LEVEL - log level used in the application. Defaults to INFO.
CORS_HEADERS - a list of additional headers that should be supported.
CORS_ORIGIN - a list of allowed origins that should be supported.

AWS related configuration

AWS_LAMBDA_FUNCTION_NAME - defined by AWS Lambda environment used ATM only in EventAPI
EVENTS_BUS_NAME - expected by EventAPI Event Bridge Events Bus Name. Defaults to Lambda name taken from AWS_LAMBDA_FUNCTION_NAME and extended with -event-bus

Hello World Example:

1. Define resource

# simple_resource.py

from lbz.router import add_route
from lbz.response import Response
from lbz.resource import Resource

class HelloWorld(Resource):

    @add_route("/", method="GET")
    def list(self):
        return Response({"message": "HelloWorld"})

2. Define handler

# simple_resource.py

from lbz.exceptions import LambdaFWException

from simple_resource import HelloWorld


def handle(event, context):
    try:
        return HelloWorld(event)()
    except Exception as err:
        return LambdaFWException().get_response(context.aws_request_id).to_dict()

3. Create dev Server 🖥️

# simple_resource_dev.py

from lbz.dev.server import MyDevServer

from simple_resource.simple_resource import HelloWorld

if __name__ == '__main__':
    server = MyDevServer(acls=HelloWorld, port=8001)
    server.run()

4. Don't forget to unit test

# pytest simple_resource_test.py
from lbz.dev.test import Client

from simple_resource import HelloWorld

class TestHelloWorld:
    def setup_method(self) -> None:
        # pylint: disable=attribute-defined-outside-init
        self.client = Client(resource=HelloWorld)

    def test_filter_queries_all_active_when_no_params(self) -> None:
        data = self.client.get("/").to_dict()["body"]
        assert data == '{"message":"HelloWorld"}'

5. Authenticate it 💂

# simple_auth/simple_resource.py

from lbz.router import add_route
from lbz.response import Response
from lbz.resource import Resource
from lbz.authz import authorization


class HelloWorld(Resource):
    _name = "helloworld"

    @authorization()
    @add_route("/", method="GET")
    def list(self, restrictions=None):
        return Response({"message": f"Hello, {self.request.user.username} !"})
