pyfaaster
Useful Utilities for Python Functions as a Service (starting with AWS Lambda).
Problem
Functions as a Service can be joyful. When paired with a concise language like Python, you start to rethink the need for a "web framework" like Rails, Django, etc: couple your functions with your FaaS provider's API Gateway and you are off an running with minimal code. Of course, there is still some boilerplate code around injecting environment, formatting responses, checking arguments, etc.
Concept
The goal of pyfaaster is to cut
through the cruft and get you humming along with your Python FaaS. pyfaaster accomplishes
this goal by providing you with useful middleware (i.e. decorators) for your lambda functions. Additionally, pyfaaster can be used for its excellent Makefile and serverless.yml examples.
Cheers!
Usage
The following is a non-exhaustive list and details of the useful middleware. More can be found in pyfaaster.aws.handler_decorators.
Environment Variables
You don't want to sprinkle os.environ throughout your code. Let us do that for you.
import pyfaaster as faas
@faas.environ_aware(['REQUIRED_ENV'], ['OPTIONAL_ENV'])
def handler(event, context, REQUIRED_ENV=None, OPTIONAL_ENV=None):
assert REQUIRED_ENV == os.environ['REQUIRED_ENV'] # <- faas.environ_aware will return early with a useful message if this is not set
assert OPTIONAL_ENV == os.environ.get('OPTIONAL_ENV')
Configuration Files
Similarly, don't worry about injecting those S3 Configuration files.
import pyfaaster as faas
@faas.configuration_aware('config.json', True) # S3 key to a config file, create if not there
def handler(event, context, configuration=None):
assert configuration == < {
'load': lambda : {contents of config bucket},
'save': lambda d : save d into config bucket,
}
Response Format
Sigh, you have to manually convert your lambda return values to API Gateway's expected dictionary? Don't forget to serialize all your json into the body element! Oh wait ... just use
import pyfaaster as faas
@faas.http_response(default_error_message='Failed to handle something.")
def handler(event, context, **kwargs):
return { 'my': 'important', 'json': 'data'} # <- will end up as the json serialized `body` in an API Gateway compatible dict with statusCode.
Authorization
You gotta confirm your token scopes, friend!
import pyfaaster as faas
# Checks the event.requestContext.authorizer for the given scopes. This works nicely with AWS custom
# authorizers. An example one is coming to this library soon.
@faas.scopes('read:profile', 'update:email')
def handler(event, context, **kwargs):
return 'Hello, Secure World!'
