APIG Event Source

API Gateway (APIG) is an API hosting service that helps enterprises to build, manage, and deploy APIs at any scale. With APIG, your function can be invoked through HTTPS by using a custom REST API and a specified backend. You can map each API operation (such as, GET and PUT) to a specific function. APIG invokes the relevant function when an HTTPS request is sent to the API backend.

For more information about how to use HTTPS calls to trigger functions, see :Using an APIG (Dedicated) trigger.

Parameter description

Parameter

Type

Description

body

String

Actual request body in string format (Base64 encoded).

requestContext

Map

Request information, including the API gateway configuration, request ID, authentication information, and source.

httpMethod

String

HTTP method

queryStringParameters

Map

Query strings configured in APIG and their actual values

pathParameters

Map

Path parameters configured in APIG and their actual values

headers

Map

Complete headers

path

String

Complete path

isBase64Encoded

Boolean

Default value: true (see Notes below)

Notes

  • When calling a function using APIG, isBase64Encoded is valued true by default, indicating that the request body transferred to FunctionGraph is encoded using Base64 and must be decoded for processing.

  • The function must return characters strings by using the following structure.

    {
      "isBase64Encoded": "true|false",
      "statusCode": "httpStatusCode",
      "headers": {"headerName":"headerValue"},
      "body": "..."
    }
    

Example

const { APIGEvent, APIGResponse } = require("apig-event");

exports.initializer = function (context, callback) {
  const logger = context.getLogger();
  logger.info("Function initialized");
  callback(null, "");
};

exports.handler = async function (event, context) {
  const logger = context.getLogger();

  logger.info("Function Name:", context.getFunctionName());

  const apigEvent = new APIGEvent(event);

  const isBase64Encoded = event.isBase64Encoded || false;

  const body = apigEvent.getBody();
  logger.info("APIG Event body:", body);

  let responseType = "default";
  if (
    apigEvent.getQueryStringParameters() &&
    apigEvent.getQueryStringParameters().responseType
  ) {
    responseType = apigEvent.getQueryStringParameters().responseType;
  }

  let output = "";

  if (responseType === "html") {
    output = new APIGResponse(
      200,
      "",
      { "Content-Type": "text/html; charset=utf-8" },
      false,
    );
    output.setBody(
      "<html><h1>Welcome to use FunctionGraph</h1></html>",
      isBase64Encoded,
    );
  } else if (responseType === "json") {
    output = new APIGResponse(
      200,
      "",
      { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
      false,
    );
    try {
      const parsedBody = JSON.parse(body.replace(/\\\"/g, '"'));
      output.setBody(parsedBody, isBase64Encoded);
    } catch (e) {
