Latest version of @middy/core breaks types in the handler function
vidarc opened this issue · comments
Describe the bug
The 5.4.2 release of @middy/core
breaks typing that works fine in version 5.4.1. Have tried it with TypeScript 5.4.x
and 5.5.x
and encounter the same issue.
To Reproduce
You can see this issue with the sample TypeScript in the documentation. The req
and context
variables in the handler function are now no longer correctly typed, but instead return as any
. Downgrading back to 5.4.1 fixes the issue and now req
and context
are correctly typed again.
import middy from "@middy/core";
import secretsManager from "@middy/secrets-manager";
import type { APIGatewayProxyEvent, APIGatewayProxyResult } from "aws-lambda";
export const handler = middy<APIGatewayProxyEvent, APIGatewayProxyResult>()
.use(
secretsManager({
fetchData: {
apiToken: "dev/api_token",
},
awsClientOptions: {
region: "us-east-1",
},
setToContext: true,
}),
)
.handler(async (req, context) => {
// The context type gets augmented here by the secretsManager middleware.
// This is just an example, obviously don't ever log your secret in real life!
console.log(context.apiToken);
return {
statusCode: 200,
body: JSON.stringify({
message: `Hello from ${req.path}`,
req,
}),
};
});
Expected behaviour
Above example should work with TypeScript
Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.
I'm also experiencing this!
Hey,
you're right, the type defs indeed changed.
Wasn't sure how to properly document this and am sorry for the inconvinience.
What you need to do is to provide the generic type to the .handler
function.
In your case it would be:
import middy from "@middy/core";
import secretsManager from "@middy/secrets-manager";
import type { APIGatewayProxyEvent, APIGatewayProxyResult } from "aws-lambda";
export const handler = middy()
.use(
secretsManager({
fetchData: {
apiToken: "dev/api_token",
},
awsClientOptions: {
region: "us-east-1",
},
setToContext: true,
}),
)
.handler<APIGatewayProxyEvent, APIGatewayProxyResult>(async (req, context) => {
// The context type gets augmented here by the secretsManager middleware.
// This is just an example, obviously don't ever log your secret in real life!
console.log(context.apiToken);
return {
statusCode: 200,
body: JSON.stringify({
message: `Hello from ${req.path}`,
req,
}),
};
});
// OR
import middy from "@middy/core";
import secretsManager from "@middy/secrets-manager";
import type { APIGatewayProxyEvent, APIGatewayProxyResult } from "aws-lambda";
export const handler = middy<APIGatewayProxyEvent, APIGatewayProxyResult>(
async (req, context) => {
// The context type gets augmented here by the secretsManager middleware.
// This is just an example, obviously don't ever log your secret in real life!
console.log(context.apiToken);
return {
statusCode: 200,
body: JSON.stringify({
message: `Hello from ${req.path}`,
req,
}),
};
}
)
.use(
secretsManager({
fetchData: {
apiToken: "dev/api_token",
},
awsClientOptions: {
region: "us-east-1",
},
setToContext: true,
}),
);
Please reopen if this needs more attention.

Will be able to further investigate in few hours, will keep you posted. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hey guys,
first of all, sorry for the inconvenience.
I've created a PR to partially revert those changes,
need to figure out how to support plain AWS Lambda types (such as S3Handler
) properly.
If anyone has an idea please let me know 🙏
@naorpeled wouldn’t it look something like:
import middyCore from "@middy/core";
import type { S3Event } from "aws-lambda";
export const middy = middyCore<S3Event, void>();
export const handler = middy.handler(({ Records }) =>
console.log(JSON.stringify(Records, undefined, 2))
);
Must be version 5.4.1
though.
The key with the previous middy types is focusing on middyCore<requestOrEvent, responseOrReturnType, optionalError, optionalContext, tInternal>
.
So you don’t want the S3Handler
type. But if you look at its definition:
export type S3Handler = Handler<S3Event, void>;
You’ll find the types you want—S3Event
as the event and void
as the return type. You’d specify it like above with middyCore<S3Event, void>();
The main problem I have with middy types is that middy’s default middleware augments types with APIGatewayProxyEvent
, despite me specifying APIGatewayProxyEventV2
. That means my actual middy handler types include properties from APIGatewayProxyEvent
, despite them not existing in the HttpApi event APIGatewayProxyEventV2
.
Could this be reopened please?
Here's something which breaks with 5.4.2 for me (a simplified version of our codebase).
We have handlers which return objects satisfying an internal interface, and then middleware to transform from that into an APIGatewayProxyResponseV2
:
import middy, { MiddlewareObj } from "@middy/core";
import type {
APIGatewayProxyEventV2,
APIGatewayProxyResultV2,
Context,
} from "aws-lambda";
export interface LoggerContext extends Context {
logger: unknown;
}
// Adds a logger to the context
export function loggerMiddleware<TEvent, TResult>(): MiddlewareObj<
TEvent,
TResult,
Error,
LoggerContext
> {
return {
before: ({ context }) => {
context.logger = undefined;
},
};
}
// Converts from our type to an AWS response type
export function renderableMiddleware<TErr>(): MiddlewareObj<
APIGatewayProxyEventV2,
APIGatewayProxyResultV2 & MyType,
TErr,
LoggerContext
> {
return {
after: (request) => {
if (request.response === null) {
return;
}
// Imagine some logging here making use of `request.context`.
Object.assign(request.response, {
statusCode: 200,
body: `Got ${request.response.apples} apples`,
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json; charset=utf-8",
},
});
},
};
}
interface MyType {
apples: number;
}
function baseHandler(): MyType {
return {
apples: 1337,
};
}
const handler = middy()
.use(loggerMiddleware())
.use(renderableMiddleware())
.handler(baseHandler);
// With 5.4.1, type is `Promise<any>`.
// With 5.4.2, type is `Promise<MyType>`. #1222 doesn't change this either :(
const result = handler(
{} as APIGatewayProxyEventV2,
{} as LoggerContext & Context,
);
The types weren't the best before - it would be nice if after
and before
functions could talk about how they transform their inputs. The ideal type for result
would be Promise<APIGatewayProxyResultV2>
and I'd assign the response directly instead of using Object.assign
.
But given the existing type setup, a type that would work and the one I'd expect to see would be Promise<APIGatewayProxyResultV2 & MyType>
.
Promise<MyType>
isn't right, and it breaks the types in my codebase, unfortunately.
I couldn't resist fiddling with the type definitions a bit. I came up with this: a66f358.
In there we add a couple of new generic parameters which exist to propagate along the types from after()
and before()
, and modify the type of handler()
.
It's not a proposal right now. Partly because it breaks existing programs and partly because I'm not sure it's all correct. It does seem to improve things for me, though.
I wanted to share it to get feedback and see if folks thing it's a valuable direction to try to move in.
