Introduction

Vaul is designed to help developers quickly deploy Python functions as serverless APIs on AWS Lambda. With a focus on simplicity and efficiency, Vaul leverages AWS Lambda's Function URLs to provide scalable and cost-effective API endpoints.

Features

• Nano-framework: Lightweight and easy to use.
• OpenAPI Integration: Automatically generate OpenAPI schema for your APIs.
• AWS Lambda Support: Seamlessly deploy functions to AWS Lambda using Function URLs.
• Request Validation: Built-in request validation using Pydantic.
• CORS Support: Pre-configured Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) support.
• Custom Actions: Define and manage custom actions with ease.

Installation

To install Vaul, you can use pip:

pip install vaul

Usage

Defining Actions

Vaul allows you to define actions (API endpoints) using simple decorators. Here is an example of how to define a GET and POST endpoint:

from vaul import Vaul

app = Vaul()

@app.action(path='/hello', method="GET")
def hello(name: str) -> str:
    return f"Hello, {name}!"

@app.action(path='/echo', method="POST")
def echo(data: dict) -> dict:
    return data

def handler(event, context):
    return app.handler(event)

Deploying to AWS Lambda

To deploy your Vaul application to AWS Lambda, use the AWS CLI or AWS Management Console. Ensure that your Lambda function's handler is set to the appropriate entry point (e.g., handler).

Using OpenAPI Schema

Vaul automatically generates an OpenAPI schema for your API based on the defined actions. You can access the schema by visiting the /openapi endpoint.

curl -X GET https://your-function-url/openapi.json

Accessing Request Data

You can access the request data (e.g., query parameters, headers, body) using the get_request function:

from vaul import Vaul, get_request

app = Vaul()

@app.action(path='/hello', method="GET")
def hello() -> str:
    request = get_request()
    user_agent = request.headers.get('User-Agent')
    return f"Hello, {user_agent}!"
    
def handler(event, context):
    return app.handler(event)

Handling Requests

Vaul's middleware automatically handles incoming requests, validates them, and routes them to the appropriate action based on the request path and method.
