Lambda function URLs How to Read Body from Post?

[jeffotoni]

Describe the issue

Ex: curl -i -XPOST -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://xxxxxxx.lambda-url.us-east-1.on.aws -d '{"input":"ping"}'

type Event struct {
    Input string `json:"input"`
}

func HandleRequest(event Event) (*Response, error) {
    if len(event.Input) > 0 && event.Input == "ping" {
        return &Response{Msg: "pong"}, nil
    }
    return &Response{Msg: "I don't know"}, nil
}

How to read the body coming from a Post ?

Because the example above didn't work for the curl Payload but for the event it works 100%.

Hi @jeffotoni when making a curl request directly you need to unmarshal the body from event before you can access your input.

package main

import (
    "context"
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"

    "github.com/aws/aws-lambda-go/lambda"
)

type Body struct {
    Input string `json:"input"`
}

type Event struct {
    Body string `json:"body"`
}

type Response struct {
    StatusCode int    `json:"statusCode"`
    Body       string `json:"body"`
}

func HandleRequest(ctx context.Context, event Event) (Response, error) {
    var body Body

    err := json.Unmarshal([]byte(event.Body), &body)
    if err != nil {
        return Response{StatusCode: 400, Body: `{"msg": "error ready body, Invalid JSON"}`}, err
    }

    if body.Input == "ping" {
        return Response{StatusCode: 200, Body: `{"msg": "pong"}`}, nil
    }
    return Response{StatusCode: 200, Body: `{"msg": "I don't know"}`}, nil
}

func main() {
    lambda.Start(HandleRequest)
}

$ curl -i -XPOST -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://xxxxxxx.lambda-url.us-east-1.on.aws/ -d '{"input":"ping"}'

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Wed, 19 Jul 2023 00:06:57 GMT
Content-Type: application/json
Content-Length: 15
Connection: keep-alive
x-amzn-RequestId: REDACTED
X-Amzn-Trace-Id: REDACTED

{"msg": "pong"}%    

Hope this helps, Thanks, Ran~

I'm going to test it here but it turned out pretty simple lol 😁
