Moto VS aws-sam-cli

> OpenMoto

I dunno if you're trying to play on "hashimoto" but https://github.com/getmoto/moto#readme would be a prime name collision for any such "OpenMoto" name

But yes, please, to adopting Vault. I don't have a horse in the race about Consul but my suspicion is such an effort would only be worthwhile if trying to adopt Nomad, too, which I gravely doubt

Unfortunately I do not believe AWS provides any "test" gateways. I do know there are mock AWS servers you can run on your own. The one I use is called Moto. It does not cover everything (unfortunately it's the most comprehensive out there AFAIK), but it's decent enough to test most standard calls via the sdk. I'm not sure if it covers authorization though...we tend to use security roles on tasks for authorization.

If using Python use Moto to mock AWS Services

You can use a library such as moto https://github.com/getmoto/moto

The Pythonic motto library mocks AWS services, removing the need to deploy your application or pay for API calls against AWS services. Other programming languages have their motto implementation.

Has anyone managed to configure moto (https://docs.getmoto.org/en/latest/) in a docker container in the similar way LocalStack does?

As for mocking, you can take a look at the moto library for mocking the AWS SDK, or for more simple cases even just use a `unittest.Mock/MagicMock` object. If you're having trouble trying to use the mocks in your code, it's a good sign your code is too highly coupled and it'd pay to re-factor, for example using dependency injection, design patterns like adapter/facade etc. (but don't over-do it)

To add on to the integration tests point, for mocking out your AWS resources you should check out moto if you don't want run your test against real AWS resources as they may cost you and is usually slower.

Does anyone have any success with API Gateway/Lamba for local environment with hot-reloading? I was playing around with “sam local start-api” a few weeks ago with along with CDK but it doesn’t seem like hot-reloading is supported, and need to manually restart for code changes to reflect, which is currently stopping me from trying out the API Gateway/Lamba combo further due to inefficient DX. Here’s a GitHub issue about it: https://github.com/aws/aws-sam-cli/issues/901

Mostly due to lack of proper documentation it was difficult to get the HTTPApi syntax correct. The yaml file is very picky for CORS configuration on an HTTPApi. Luckily I found this github issue which allowed me to troubleshoot my yaml file.

No, it's not just muscle memory. It doesn't work with podman. That's what I'm talking about https://github.com/aws/aws-sam-cli/issues/1668

AWS SAM CLI with the support of Typescript is still in Beta. If you want more advanced features maybe you should not use it. Lately, in version 1.49.0 External and Loader properties have been added. If you want to share your feedback and/or requests this issue has been created.

I spent a while creating a custom runtime to use the native-image agent to harvest config from my Lambda, and then patching sam cli to work in Docker user networks... after pushing through all that, I still didn't get a working build - the native-image compiler just doesn't support everything (or didn't support my feature set, at the time - there has been a new release since then). In my case I think it was Guice that defeated me.

SAM support for TypeScript has been lagging for some time, but a pull request was just merged that should change that. It looks like we'll be able to add an aws_sam key in the package.json file to enable building within the SAM engine as part of sam build. Although this PR has been merged to aws-lambda-builders, the engine behind sam build, it will still need to be added to aws-sam-cli and released (to much fanfare, one expects) before it can be used with SAM.

I am installing SAM CLI on windows and its super simple. All I need to do is Click on this MSI installer.
