shandlers

A python lib that provides handlers for serverless events

 

Installation

From PyPI:

shandlers==0.0.3

 

Supported events

• sqs
• apigw
• sns
• kinesis stream
• kinesis firehose

 

Basic Usage

SQS Handler

Create a function that accepts a payload and kwargs as parameters, that contains the logic that you want to apply to each of your records in the event.

def handle(payload, **kwargs):
    pass

Add the @sqs_handler decorator to the function

from shandlers.sqs.handler import sqs_handler

@sqs_handler()
def handle(payload, **kwargs):
    pass

The decorator will allow your function to:

• Parse the SQS event (using marshmallow)
• Parse the body of each record to a dict and pass it to your function
• Handle a basic retry logic
• Handle ValidationError and JSONDecodeError

 

The kwargs argument in your function

You can have extra arguemtns in your function if you need to. The sqs_handler decorator also passes receive_count and event as parameters, in case you need to perform extra actions with that information.

from shandlers.sqs.handler import sqs_handler

@sqs_handler()
def handle(payload, receive_count, event, **kwargs):
    pass

 

Configuring the decorator

Schema

You can add schema to the decorator parameters, in case you have for example a marshmallow schema or if you have any other mechanism to parse that responds to the .loads(json_string) call.

from shandlers.sqs.handler import sqs_handler
from myschema import MyMarshmallowSchema

@sqs_handler(schema=MyMarshmallowSchema())
def handle(payload, **kwargs):
    pass

Here the payload argument type will depend on the passed schema output.

Also, if while parsing the record body a parsing error occurs, the event will be DISCARDED.

The default value of schema is the json module from python

Retry threshold

You can add retry_theshold to the decorator parameters to specify the amount of times a record can retry to be processed.

from shandlers.sqs.handler import sqs_handler

@sqs_handler(retry_threshold=5)
def handle(payload, **kwargs):
    pass

The default value is set to 1

Logger

You can add logger to the decorator parameter, so the handlers uses your logger when an error occurs.

from shandlers.sqs.handler import sqs_handler
import logging

_LOGGER = logging.getLogger()

@sqs_handler(logger=_LOGGER)
def handle(payload, **kwargs):
    pass

The default logger can be checked here
