apig-wsgi 2.18.0

Description:

apigwsgi 2.18.0

Wrap a WSGI application in an AWS Lambda handler function for running on API Gateway or an ALB.
A quick example:
from apig_wsgi import make_lambda_handler
from myapp.wsgi import app

# Configure this as your entry point in AWS Lambda
lambda_handler = make_lambda_handler(app)

Installation
Use pip:
python -m pip install apig-wsgi
Python 3.8 to 3.12 supported.

Usage
Use apig-wsgi in your AWS Lambda Function that you attach to one of:

A Lambda Function URL
An API Gateway “HTTP API”
An API Gateway “REST API”
An ALB

Both “format version 1” and “format version 2” are supported
(documentation).
apig-wsgi will automatically detect the version in use.
At time of writing, “format version 2” is used for Lambda Function URL’s and API Gateway HTTP API’s.

make_lambda_handler(app, binary_support=None, non_binary_content_type_prefixes=None)
app should be a WSGI app, for example from Django’s wsgi.py or Flask’s
Flask() object.
binary_support configures whether responses containing binary are
supported. The default, None, means to automatically detect this from the
format version of the event - on it defaults to True for format version 2,
and False for format version 1. Depending on how you’re deploying your
lambda function, you may need extra configuration before you can enable binary
responses:

ALB’s support binary responses by default.
API Gateway HTTP API’s support binary responses by default (and default to
event format version 2).
API Gateway REST API’s (the “old” style) require you to add '*/*' in the
“binary media types” configuration. You will need to configure this through
API Gateway directly, CloudFormation, SAM, or whatever tool your project is
using. Whilst this supports a list of binary media types, using '*/*' is
the best way to configure it, since it is used to match the request ‘Accept’
header as well, which WSGI applications often ignore. You may need to delete
and recreate your stages for this value to be copied over.

Note that binary responses aren’t sent if your response has a ‘Content-Type’
starting ‘text/’, ‘application/json’ or ‘application/vnd.api+json’ - this
is to support sending larger text responses, since the base64 encoding would
otherwise inflate the content length. To avoid base64 encoding other content
types, you can set non_binary_content_type_prefixes to a list or tuple of
content type prefixes of your choice (which replaces the default list).
If the event from API Gateway contains the requestContext key, for example
on format version 2 or from custom request authorizers, this will be available
in the WSGI environ at the key apig_wsgi.request_context.
If you want to inspect the full event from API Gateway, it’s available in the
WSGI environ at the key apig_wsgi.full_event.
If you need the
Lambda Context object,
it’s available in the WSGI environ at the key apig_wsgi.context.
If you’re using “format version 1”, multiple values for request and response
headers and query parameters are supported. They are enabled automatically on
API Gateway but need explict activation on
ALB’s.
If you need to determine from within your application if multiple header values
are enabled, you can can check the apgi_wsgi.multi_value_headers key in the
WSGI environ, which is True if they are enabled and False otherwise.
