## AWS Lambda Go API Proxy [](https://travis-ci.org/awslabs/aws-lambda-go-api-proxy)
aws-lambda-go-api-proxy makes it easy to run Go APIs written with frameworks such as [Gin](https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin) with AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway.
## Getting started
Install required dependencies.
```bash
# First, install the Lambda go libraries.
$ go get github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/events
$ go get github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/lambda
# Next, install the core library.
$ go get github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-go-api-proxy/...
```
### Standard library
To use with the standard library, the `httpadaptor.New` function takes in a `http.Handler`. The `ProxyWithContent` method on the `httpadapter.HandlerAdapter` can then be used as a Lambda handler.
```go
package main
import (
"io"
"net/http"
"github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/lambda"
"github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-go-api-proxy/httpadapter"
)
func main() {
http.HandleFunc("/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
io.WriteString(w, "Hello")
})
lambda.Start(httpadapter.New(http.DefaultServeMux).ProxyWithContext)
}
```
### Gin
To use with the Gin framework, following the instructions from the [Lambda documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/go-programming-model-handler-types.html), declare a `Handler` method for the main package.
Declare a `ginadapter.GinLambda` object in the global scope, and initialize it in the `init` function, adding all API methods.
The `ProxyWithContext` method is then used to translate requests and responses.
```go
package main
import (
"log"
"context"
"github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/events"
"github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/lambda"
"github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-go-api-proxy/gin"
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)
var ginLambda *ginadapter.GinLambda
func init() {
// stdout and stderr are sent to AWS CloudWatch Logs
log.Printf("Gin cold start")
r := gin.Default()
r.GET("/ping", func(c *gin.Context) {
c.JSON(200, gin.H{
"message": "pong",
})
})
ginLambda = ginadapter.New(r)
}
func Handler(ctx context.Context, req events.APIGatewayProxyRequest) (events.APIGatewayProxyResponse, error) {
// If no name is provided in the HTTP request body, throw an error
return ginLambda.ProxyWithContext(ctx, req)
}
func main() {
lambda.Start(Handler)
}
```
### Fiber
To use with the Fiber framework, following the instructions from the [Lambda documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/go-programming-model-handler-types.html), declare a `Handler` method for the main package.
Declare a `fiberadapter.FiberLambda` object in the global scope, and initialize it in the `init` function, adding all API methods.
The `ProxyWithContext` method is then used to translate requests and responses.
```go
// main.go
package main
import (
"context"
"log"
"github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/events"
"github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/lambda"
fiberadapter "github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-go-api-proxy/fiber"
"github.com/gofiber/fiber/v2"
)
var fiberLambda *fiberadapter.FiberLambda
// init the Fiber Server
func init() {
log.Printf("Fiber cold start")
var app *fiber.App
app = fiber.New()
app.Get("/", func(c *fiber.Ctx) error {
return c.SendString("Hello, World!")
})
fiberLambda = fiberadapter.New(app)
}
// Handler will deal with Fiber working with Lambda
func Handler(ctx context.Context, req events.APIGatewayProxyRequest) (events.APIGatewayProxyResponse, error) {
// If no name is provided in the HTTP request body, throw an error
return fiberLambda.ProxyWithContext(ctx, req)
}
func main() {
// Make the handler available for Remote Procedure Call by AWS Lambda
lambda.Start(Handler)
}
```
## Other frameworks
This package also supports [Negroni](https://github.com/urfave/negroni), [GorillaMux](https://github.com/gorilla/mux), and plain old `HandlerFunc` - take a look at the code in their respective sub-directories. All packages implement the `Proxy` method exactly like our Gin sample above.
## Deploying the sample
We have included a [SAM template](https://github.com/awslabs/serverless-application-model) with our sample application. You can use the [AWS CLI](https://aws.amazon.com/cli/) to quickly deploy the application in your AWS account.
First, build the sample application by running `make` from the `aws-lambda-go-api-proxy` directory.
```bash
$ cd aws-lambda-go-api-proxy
$ make
```
The `make` process should generate a `main.zip` file in the sample folder. You can now use the AWS CLI to prepare the deployment for AWS Lambda and Amazon API Gateway.
```bash
$ cd sample
$ aws cloudformation package --template-file sam.yaml --output-template-file output-sam.yaml --s3-bucket YOUR_DEPLOYMENT_BUCKET
$ aws cloudformation deploy --template-file output-sam.yaml --stack-name YOUR_STACK_NAME --capabilities CAPABILITY_IAM
```
Using the CloudFormation console, you can find the URL for the newly created API endpoint in the `Outputs` tab of the sample stack - it looks sample like this: `https://xxxxxxxxx.execute-api.xx-xxxx-x.amazonaws.com/Prod/pets`. Open a browser window and try to call the URL.
## API Gateway context and stage variables
~~The `RequestAccessor` object, and therefore `GinLambda`, automatically marshals the API Gateway request context and stage variables objects and stores them in custom headers in the request: `X-GinLambda-ApiGw-Context` and `X-GinLambda-ApiGw-StageVars`. While you could manually unmarshal the json content into the `events.APIGatewayProxyRequestContext` and `map[string]string` objects, the library exports two utility methods to give you easy access to the data.~~
The gateway context, stage variables and lambda runtime variables are automatically populate to the context.
```go
// the methods are available in your instance of the GinLambda
// object and receive the context
apiGwContext := ginLambda.GetAPIGatewayContextFromContext(ctx)
apiGwStageVars := ginLambda.GetStageVarsFromContext(ctx)
runtimeContext := ginLambda.GetRuntimeContextFromContext(ctx)
// you can access the properties of the context directly
log.Println(apiGwContext.RequestID)
log.Println(apiGwContext.Stage)
log.Println(runtimeContext.InvokedFunctionArn)
// stage variables are stored in a map[string]string
stageVarValue := apiGwStageVars["MyStageVar"]
```
## Supporting other frameworks
The `aws-lambda-go-api-proxy`, alongside the various adapters, declares a `core` package. The `core` package, contains utility methods and interfaces to translate API Gateway proxy events into Go's default `http.Request` and `http.ResponseWriter` objects.
You can see that the [`ginlambda.go`](gin/adapter.go) file extends the `RequestAccessor` struct defined in the [`request.go`](core/request.go) file. `RequestAccessor` gives you access to the `ProxyEventToHTTPRequest()` method.
The `GinLambda` object is initialized with an instance of `gin.Engine`. `gin.Engine` implements methods defined in the `http.Handler` interface.
The `Proxy` method of the `GinLambda` object simply receives the `events.APIGatewayProxyRequest` object and uses the `ProxyEventToHTTPRequest()` method to convert it into an `http.Request` object. Next, it creates a new `ProxyResponseWriter` object (defined in the [`response.go`](core/response.go)) file and passes both request and response writer to the `ServeHTTP` method of the `gin.Engine`.
The `ProxyResponseWriter` exports a method called `GetProxyResponse()` to generate an `events.APIGatewayProxyResponse` object from the data written to the response writer.
Support for frameworks other than Gin can rely on the same methods from the `core` package and swap the `gin.Engine` object for the relevant framework's object.
