  • apigw-non-existing-resource-error-msg

    Better error messages for 404 "path/method incorrect" APIGW errors

    You can find the code from this article in this GitHub repository.

  • Express

    Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for node.

    Note In some cases, developers might use the ANY method with a "greedy" route for monolithic AWS Lambda deployments (think running express on AWS Lambda. While I'm not a fan of such practice, I also understand that it might work well for some. If that is the case for you, you should consider tackling the issue I'm describing using your framework of choice.

  • SurveyJS

  • TypeScript

    TypeScript is a superset of JavaScript that compiles to clean JavaScript output.

    The following is an AWS CDK TypeScript snippet that re-defines the gateway response in question.

  • aws-lambda-java-libs

    Official mirror for interface definitions and helper classes for Java code running on the AWS Lambda platform.

    This is, arguably, a more accessible, from the IaC configuration standpoint, variant to pull off. The "greedy" ANY route is backed by an AWS Lambda function. Since we have the power of a programing language at our disposal, one has the opportunity to tailor the "method/path does not exist on this API" message to a given API user.

  • aws-cdk

    The AWS Cloud Development Kit is a framework for defining cloud infrastructure in code

    The following is an AWS CDK TypeScript snippet that re-defines the gateway response in question.
