pyinstaller-hooks-contrib VS aws-lambda-developer-guide

I understand that at one point there was a problem with pyinstaller and it's importing of openCV but from what I read it sounds as if it had been solved? https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller-hooks-contrib/pull/469

pyinstaller has the ability to "hook" how it handles different packages that require special handling like boto3. Which sounds like a lot of work, but it should just work, since it comes with a hook for boto3 and friends.

I haven't checked the pyinstaller hooks in a while but if they aren't working for cv2 you'll need to pass in the compiled cv2 module to Pyinstaller with the --paths flag when building.

i don't know anything about lambda but if you check one of their examples, their "blank" function imports boto3 https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-lambda-developer-guide/tree/main/sample-apps/blank-python so basically do whatever they are doing

Our Lambda will be used with API Gateway, which has events structured like this:

API Gateway events look like this.
