pylambdarest is a lightweight opinionated framework for building REST API using AWS Lambda and API Gateway .
Why another framework ?
When using API Gateway and python Lambda functions, the most common pattern is to have a unique Lambda function triggered by a proxy API Gateway resource. The Lambda then uses a framework like Flask to do all the routing. In an API Gateway + Lambda context, I feel like the routing should be handled by API Gateway itself , then forwarding the request to specific Lambda functions for each resource or endpoint.
