Python - Boto3 - Lambda

[reinalau]

I'm testing Lambda applications deployed with CloudFormation. I realized that since they run in a container, if I set endpoint_url=http://localhost:4566, it doesn't work because it tries to call itself. The name assigned in Docker Compose, which is floci in this case, needs to be correct. I'm mentioning this in case it's helpful to anyone else.

`import boto3
import json

dynamo = boto3.client('dynamodb', endpoint_url='http://floci:4566',
region_name='us-east-1',
aws_access_key_id='laub', aws_secret_access_key='laub')
....
`

Best regards

@reinalau,

Floci now injects the AWS_ENDPOINT_URL to all lambda containers as well into all ECR/EC2 instances.
It will inject the FLOCI_HOSTNAME specified on the Floci config or the default "localhost.floci.io"

import boto3
import json

dynamo = boto3.client('dynamodb', region_name='us-east-1', aws_access_key_id='laub', aws_secret_access_key='laub')
