apig-wsgi 2.2.0

make_lambda_handler(app, binary_support=False)

app should be a WSGI app, for example from Django’s wsgi.py or Flask’s Flask() object.

If you want to support sending binary responses, set binary_support to True. ALB’s support binary responses by default, but on API Gateway you need to make sure you have '*/*' in the ‘binary media types’ configuration on your Rest API (whilst API Gateway supports a list of binary media types, using '*/*' is the best way to do it, since it is used to match the request ‘Accept’ header as well, which WSGI applications are likely to ignore).

Note that binary responses aren’t sent if your response has a ‘Content-Type’ starting ‘text/html’ or ‘application/json’ - this is to support sending larger text responses.

If the event from API Gateway contains the requestContext key, for example from custom request authorizers, this will be available in the WSGI environ at the key apig_wsgi.request_context.

History

Pending Release

2.2.0 (2019-04-15)

• If API Gateway event includes requestContext, for example for custom authorizers, pass it in the WSGI environ as apig_wsgi.request_context.

2.1.1 (2019-03-31)

• Revert adding statusDescription because it turns out API Gateway doesn’t ignore it but instead fails the response with an internal server error.

2.1.0 (2019-03-31)

• Change statusCode returned to API Gateway / ALB to an integer. It seems API Gateway always supported both strings and integers, whilst ALB only supports integers.

• Add statusDescription in return value. API Gateway doesn’t seem to use this whilst the ALB documentation mentions it as supported.

2.0.2 (2019-02-07)

• Drop Python 2 support, only Python 3.4+ is supported now.

2.0.1 (2019-02-07)

• Temporarily restore Python 2 support. This is in order to fix a packaging metadata issue that 2.0.0 was marked as supporting Python 2, so a new release is needed with a higher version number for pip install apig-wsgi to resolve properly on Python 2. Version 2.0.2+ of apig-wsgi will not support Python 2.

2.0.0 (2019-01-28)

• Drop Python 2 support, only Python 3.4+ is supported now.

• If exc_info is passed in, re-raise the exception (previously it would be ignored and crash in a different way). This isn’t the nicest experience, however the behaviour is copied from wsgiref's simple server, and most WSGI applications implement their own exception conversion to a “500 Internal Server Error” page already.

• Noted that the EC2 ALB to Lambda integration is also supported as it uses the same event format as API Gateway.

1.2.0 (2018-05-14)

• Work with base64 encoded body values in requests from API Gateway.

1.1.2 (2018-05-11)

• Fix crash using binary support for responses missing a Content-Type header.

1.1.1 (2018-05-11)

• Remove debug print()

1.1.0 (2018-05-10)

• Add binary_support flag to enable sending binary responses, if enabled on API Gateway.

1.0.0 (2018-03-08)

• First release on PyPI, working basic integration for WSGI apps on API Gateway.
