boto3_large_message_utils

This library provides a way of bypassing AWS size restrictions when using services such as SQS and SNS, by providing methods to cache message bodies in S3 and parse them again at the other end.

Usage

Install the package using pip

pip install boto3_large_message_utils

Import and set up the LargeMessageHandler

from boto3_large_message_utils import LargeMessageHandler

msg_handler = LargeMessageHandler(
    s3_bucket_for_cache='my-bucket', #REQUIRED
    s3_object_prefix='my-prefix',
    compress=True,
    message_size_threshold=100000,
    #session=session, # Pass an optional boto3 session to initialise the client from the session
)

# create your message in the normal way, submit_message expects a string
my_message = json.dumps({ 'content': 'this is my message' })

# submit your message to the handler
message = msg_handler.submit_message(my_message)
# send message to SQS, SNS or another AWS service

Handle a message that has been optimised by the LargeMessageHandler.

# received message from SQS or another AWS service.
my_message = msg_handler.parse_message(received_message)
