Deploy chalice app to HTTP APIs

[danil-smirnov]

AWS has recently announced API Gateway HTTP APIs, which are up to 71% cheaper compared to REST APIs.

I suppose all and everyone are now keen to deploy their chalice apps to this exciting new infra!

[benjaminsanborn]

any perspective on if the chalice project is interested in targeting HTTP Gateway?

[jamesls]

Yes! Just need to work out the API we want for being able to configure this. I also haven't had much chance to play around with these new API type so I'm not sure what's involved in supporting this.

[danil-smirnov]

@jamesls Any estimation on this? I believe this feature should be prioritised as it allows Chalice users to save costs on API Gateway service...

[jamesls]

Let me dig into this a little more so I can get a better idea of what's needed to support this.

@jamesls Excited for this. :)

isn't it just another configuration on API Gateway v2 which chalice already supports as part of web sockets? wrt to decorator expression, maybe @app.http_route or @app.route2() just spitballing to start a conversation ;-)

[ricky-sb]

Do we even need a separate decorator? This could be as easy as a boolean in config.json to deploy to HTTP APIs vs. REST APIs.

[subssn21]

They just added support for lambda and iam authorizers for http apis. I don’t think you would want to make it a boolean on the current decorator since they have different feature sets.

[jamesls]

Yeah, if we do go down the route of separate APIs I'd imagine they'd be as similar as possible so there's minimal adjustments needed to switch/migrate over. From what I can tell, HTTP APIs are different enough that I'm not sure we'd be able to share APIs.

Hi guys, anyone knows what is the status of this feature? Thanks in advance.

🏓 @jamesls — any ETA? We need this :)

Adding to this request...
I've been working with these for a while with straight lambda functions, but it would be useful to capitalize on the Chalice framework for some projects.

Any update for this feature ? :(

[romcab]

waiting for this feature as well...

[rajeshkatkarnice]

any updates?

[softwareguy74]

Any updates? Can't use it until this is implemented.

[baotran2207]

+1 this feature

[sladg]

+1 for this, are there any frameworks for HttpApi available?

[matteocontrini]

@sladg take a look at AWS Lambda Powertools for Python

[JimLundin]

+1, any updates at all?
