Releases: aws-powertools/powertools-lambda-python
v1.10.0
Changes
This release adds a number of new features to Logger, Tracer, Validator, and Parameters, a new Lambda Layer with extra packages installed (e.g. parser), and documentation fixes.
Detailed information about these features are at the bottom.
For the next release (1.11.0), we'll be focusing on a new Idempotency utility, import time performance improvements for those not using Tracer utility, and possibly a new Circuit Breaker utility.
This release was made possible by the following contributors:

Details
Logger
Extra parameter
Logger now supports extra
parameter in the standard logging when logging new messages. You can pass in any dictionary to this new parameter, and its keys and values will be available within the root of the structure - This is ephemeral and keys do not persist with its counterpart structure_logs(append=True, ...)
method.
Excerpt
from aws_lambda_powertools import Logger
logger = Logger(service="payment")
fields = { "request_id": "1123" }
logger.info("Hello", extra=fields)
Log sample
{
"timestamp": "2021-01-12 14:08:12,357",
"level": "INFO",
"location": "collect.handler:1",
"service": "payment",
"sampling_rate": 0.0,
"request_id": "1123", // highlight-line
"message": "Collecting payment"
}
Pytest Live Log support
Pytest Live Log support will output logging records as they are emitted directly into the console with colours.
Since Logger drops duplicate log records as of 1.7.0, you can now explicitly override this protection when running tests locally to make use of Pytest Live Log:
POWERTOOLS_LOG_DEDUPLICATION_DISABLED="1" pytest -o log_cli=1
Tracer
Override auto-capture response and exception
When using Tracer decorators, capture_method
or capture_lambda_handler
, we auto-capture its responses and exceptions, serialize them and inject as tracing metadata to ease troubleshooting.
There are times when serializing objects can cause side effects, for example reading S3 streaming objects if not read before. You can now override this behaviour either by parameter or via env var: POWERTOOLS_TRACER_CAPTURE_RESPONSE
, POWERTOOLS_TRACER_CAPTURE_ERROR
Parameters
AppConfig support
You can now retrieve and cache configuration stored in AppConfig natively - Thanks to Ran from CyberArk.
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities import parameters
def handler(event, context):
# Retrieve a single configuration, latest version
value: bytes = parameters.get_app_config(name="my_configuration", environment="my_env", application="my_app")
Validator
Custom formats
You can now use formats
parameter to instruct Validator utility how to deal with any custom integer or string - Thanks to @n2N8Z
Custom format snippet in a JSON Schema
{
"lastModifiedTime": {
"format": "int64",
"type": "integer"
}
}
Excerpt ignoring int64 and a positive format instead of failing
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.validation import validate
event = {} # some event
schema_with_custom_format = {} # some JSON schema that defines a custom format
custom_format = {
"int64": True, # simply ignore it,
"positive": lambda x: False if x < 0 else True
}
validate(event=event, schema=schema_with_custom_format, formats=custom_format)
v1.9.1
Changes
This patch release fixes a bug when multiple parent Loggers with the same name are configured multiple times, as per #249.
from aws_lambda_powertools import Logger
class Class1:
logger = Logger("class_1")
@staticmethod
def f_1():
Class1.logger.info("log from class_1")
class Class2:
logger = Logger("class_1")
@staticmethod
def f_2():
Class2.logger.info("log from class_2")
Class1.f_1()
Class2.f_2()
This release also adds brings staged changes initially planned for 1.10 such as minor improvements in Tracer documentation, brings equality checks to ease testing Event source data classes utility, and initial work for MyPy support (PEP 561).

v.1.7.0
Changes
Event source data classes
This release adds support for Cognito Authentication Challenge Lambda Triggers for create, define and verify trigger sources. It also enhances get_header_value
method by optionally supporting case insensitive headers.
Credits: Thanks to @michaelbrewer from Gyft for both enhancements.
Parser utility
Parser is a new utility that provides parsing and deep data validation using Pydantic Models - It requires an optional dependency (Pydantic) to work.
It uses Pydantic Model classes, similar to dataclasses, to model the shape of your data, enforce type hints at runtime, serialize your models to JSON, JSON Schema, and with third party tools you can also auto-generate Model classes from JSON, YAML, OpenAPI, etc.
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.parser import event_parser, BaseModel, ValidationError
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.typing import LambdaContext
import json
class OrderItem(BaseModel):
id: int
quantity: int
description: str
class Order(BaseModel):
id: int
description: str
items: List[OrderItem] # nesting models are supported
optional_field: Optional[str] # this field may or may not be available when parsing
@event_parser(model=Order)
def handler(event: Order, context: LambdaContext):
assert event.id == 10876546789
assert event.description == "My order"
assert len(event.items) == 1
order_items = [items for item in event.items]
...
payload = {
"id": 10876546789,
"description": "My order",
"items": [
{
"id": 1015938732,
"quantity": 1,
"description": "item xpto"
}
]
}
handler(event=payload, context=LambdaContext())
# also works if event is a JSON string
handler(event=json.dumps(payload), context=LambdaContext())
With this release, we provide a few built-in models to start with such as Amazon EventBridge, Amazon DynamoDB, and Amazon SQS - You can extend them by inheriting and overriding their properties to plug-in your models.
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.parser import parse, BaseModel
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.parser.models import EventBridgeModel
from typing import List, Optional
class OrderItem(BaseModel):
id: int
quantity: int
description: str
class Order(BaseModel):
id: int
description: str
items: List[OrderItem]
# Override `detail` key of a custom event in EventBridge from str to Order
class OrderEventModel(EventBridgeModel):
detail: Order
payload = {...} # EventBridge event dict with Order inside detail as JSON
order = parse(model=OrderEventModel, event=payload) # parse input event into OrderEventModel
assert order.source == "OrderService"
assert order.detail.description == "My order"
assert order.detail_type == "OrderPurchased" # we rename it to snake_case since detail-type is an invalid name
# We can access our Order just as fine now
for order_item in order.detail.items:
...
# We can also serialize any property of our parsed model into JSON, JSON Schema, or as a Dict
order_dict = order.dict()
order_json = order.json()
order_json_schema_as_dict = order.schema()
order_json_schema_as_json = order.schema_json(indent=2)
Similar to Validator utility, it provides an envelope
feature to parse known structures that wrap your event. It's useful when you you want to parse both the structure and your model but only return your actual data from the envelope.
Example using one of the built-in envelopes provided from day one:
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.parser import event_parser, parse, BaseModel, envelopes
from aws_lambda_powertools.utilities.typing import LambdaContext
class UserModel(BaseModel):
username: str
password1: str
password2: str
payload = {
"version": "0",
"id": "6a7e8feb-b491-4cf7-a9f1-bf3703467718",
"detail-type": "CustomerSignedUp",
"source": "CustomerService",
"account": "111122223333",
"time": "2020-10-22T18:43:48Z",
"region": "us-west-1",
"resources": ["some_additional_"],
"detail": {
"username": "universe",
"password1": "myp@ssword",
"password2": "repeat password"
}
}
ret = parse(model=UserModel, envelope=envelopes.EventBridgeModel, event=payload)
# Parsed model only contains our actual model, not the entire EventBridge + Payload parsed
assert ret.password1 == ret.password2
# Same behaviour but using our decorator
@event_parser(model=UserModel, envelope=envelopes.EventBridgeModel)
def handler(event: UserModel, context: LambdaContext):
assert event.password1 == event.password2
Credits: Thanks to @risenberg-cyberark from CyberArk for the idea, implementation, and guidance on how to best support Pydantic to provide both parsing and deep data validation. Also, special thanks to @koxudaxi for helping review with his extensive Pydantic experience.

v1.6.1
v1.6.0
Changes
Data_classes utility
New utility to easily describe event schema of popular event sources, including helper methods to access common objects (s3 bucket key) and data deserialization (records from Kinesis, CloudWatch Logs, etc).
Huge prop to @michaelbrewer for the contribution, and @cakepietoast for the comprehensive docs with examples.
JSON Schema validation utility
New utility to quickly validate inbound events and responses using JSON Schema. It also supports unwrapping events using JMESPath expressions, so you can validate only the payload or key that interests you.
Oh, before I forget! This also includes custom JMESPath functions for de-serializing JSON Strings, base64, and ZIP compressed data before applying validation too 🥰
Metrics with multiple values
Metrics utility now support adding multiple values to the same metric - This was updated in CloudWatch EMF, and Powertools happily support that too ;) - Thanks to @Dunedan for spotting that
Minor doc changes
We added a Testing your code
section for Logger and Metrics for customers like @patrickwerz who had difficulties to do unit testing their code with Powertools - Pytest fixture and examples are now provided!
We also increased the content width to ease reading more elaborate sections, and gives us room to start tinkering with a Tutorial/Guide section in coming releases \ o /

v1.5.0
Changes
SQS batch processing utility
Add a new utility to handle partial failures when processing batches of SQS messages in Lambda. The default behaviour with Lambda - SQS is to return all messages to the queue when there is a failure during processing. This utility provides functionality to handle failures individually at the message level, and avoid re-processing messages. Thanks to @gmcrocetti who contributed this utility.
Integration with CloudWatch ServiceLens
The xray_trace_id
key is now added to log output when tracing is active. This enables the log correlation functionality in ServiceLens to work with applications using powertools.
Static types for Lambda context object
You can now import a static type for the Lambda context object from this library. Thanks to @Nr18 for the implementation.
Control order of logging output
You can now change the order of the fields output by the logger. Thanks to @michaelbrewer for the implementation.
Automatically deserialize parameters
Thanks to @michaelbrewer, the parameters utility can now automatically decide how to deserialize parameter values (json/base64) based on the key name.
Documentation improvements
Lots of improvements made to the documentation. Thanks to the community contributors: @Nr18 for adding a troubleshooting section, @michaelbrewer and @bls20AWS for several housekeeping contributions.

v1.4.0
Changes
Official Lambda Layer
We now provide an official Lambda Layer via AWS Serverless Application Repository (SAR) App. SAR App follows semantic versioning, and it is synchronized with what's published on PyPi.
SAR App | ARN |
---|---|
aws-lambda-powertools-python-layer | arn:aws:serverlessrepo:eu-west-1:057560766410:applications/aws-lambda-powertools-python-layer |
A big thanks to @am29d for the implementation, and to Keith Rosario, a long standing contributor, and beta customer, who created the first Layers through his KLayers project - Lambda Layers for Python on GitHub before.
Auto-complete for SSMProvider on Parameters utility
Thanks to @michaelbrewer, SSMProvider within Parameters utility now have decrypt
and recursive
parameters correctly defined to support autocompletion.
Tracer support to not capture response as metadata
For customers returning sensitive information from their methods and Lambda handlers, Tracer decorators capture_method
and capture_lambda_handler
now support capture_response=False
parameter to override this behaviour.
Cold start metric bugfix
This release ensures Metrics utility creates a Cold Start metric with dedicated CloudWatch dimensions function_name
and service
to explicitly separate Application metrics from System metrics.
Previously, when capturing cold start metric via capture_cold_start_metric
parameter, we would add ColdStart
metric to an existing metric set along with function_name
as a dimension. This caused the problem of Application metrics having data points in two separate metrics with the same name, since one of them would have an additional function_name
dimension in the event of a cold start.
Minor improvements to docs
Content in Tracer and Logger have been reordered to match what customers are looking for. Tracer docs have less main sections to improve navigation, a new section named Patching Modules, and a note for customers capturing sensitive information they might not want Tracer to capture it.
