Flask Pagination is not working with AWS Chalice


Pagination is not working with AWS chalice, is there any other way to implement pagination?

from flask import request

@app.route('/hello/{name}')
def hello_name(name):
    page = request.args.get('page', 1, int)
    print(page)
#    # '/hello/james' -> {"hello": "james"}
    return {'hello': name}

Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/thirumal/opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/chalice/app.py", line 1691, in _get_view_function_response

This typically means that you attempted to use functionality that needed
an active HTTP request.  Consult the documentation on testing for
information about how to avoid this problem.

Solution

  • Pagination example:-

    from chalice import Chalice
    
    app = Chalice(app_name='aws-chalice-tutorial')
    
    
    @app.route('/pagination')
    def pagination():
        app.log.debug("you are in Pagination!")
        return {
            'page': app.current_request.query_params.get('page'),
            'limit': app.current_request.query_params.get('limit'),
        }
    

    Request:

    http://localhost:8000/pagination?page=0&limit=10

    {'page':'0','limit':'10'}
