Aws-sam-cli: HttpApi event type does not work with local start-api

[Lanchez]

Description

I renamed all Api events from functions to HttpApi and sam local start-api gives error message Error: Template does not have any APIs connected to Lambda functions

Steps to reproduce

Create a function with event type HttpApi without any events of type Api and try to start local start-api

Observed result

Found '0' API Events in Serverless function with name 'XXX'
...
Removed duplicates from '0' Explicit APIs and '0' Implicit APIs to produce '0' APIs
0 APIs found in the template
Sending Telemetry: {'metrics': [{'commandRun': {'awsProfileProvided': False, 'debugFlagProvided': True, 'region': '', 'commandName': 'sam local start-api', 'duration': 242, 'exitReason': 'UserException', 'exitCode': 1, 'requestId': '76b3766e-5990-4e27-ae83-98f7d13b012c', 'installationId': '9ce7efdf-c007-4c1d-920f-939c97325721', 'sessionId': 'e46aa880-3d79-4ae3-92e9-139ccddd56d0', 'executionEnvironment': 'CLI', 'pyversion': '3.7.5', 'samcliVersion': '0.37.0'}}]}
HTTPSConnectionPool(host='aws-serverless-tools-telemetry.us-west-2.amazonaws.com', port=443): Read timed out. (read timeout=0.1)
Error: Template does not have any APIs connected to Lambda functions

Expected result

Local api starts with HttpApi event type just like with Api event type.

Additional environment details (Ex: Windows, Mac, Amazon Linux etc)

1. OS: Ubuntu 18.04
2. sam --version: 0.37.0

Good catch. This is on our immediate roadmap to support. Marking this as a feature request for visibility.

I'm exploring HttpApi and came across this issue. When would this become available?

Does it work with local invoke?

[metaskills]

Adding some context. I have noticed that v0.45.0 does add full support for AWS::Serverless::HttpApi which I think was error'ing out for me prior on properties like Tags.

But in order for our team to update our highest invoked Lambda to HTTP API, we need the start-api feature to work since we use that for integration tests server.

Tested on version v0.45.0
Any updates on this (ETA)? I have to manually set Event to Api instead of HttpApi when I want to test locally which not the best flow.

I updated sam to v0.47.0 and still HttpApi not working with local start-api

[davidpach]

Hi,

Is there any update? Also in my organization we are waiting for this feature.

Thanks!

Hi guys, I just add HttpApi support in local start-api. You can see the MR #1942.

[rasensio]

+1 to this guys, as soon as people discover HttpApi and how faster and cheaper it is , this will become a big missing feature

[MartinMasek]

@sanathkr Is there any update on this please? We're starting a new project and I noticed it's not done yet.
PR from @pyk has 1 not passing test. Seems we could be almost there :)

[InspectorDeno]

+1

[rowanu]

This is so close to being fixed - thanks for your work @pyk!

@sanathkr can you please confirm if the only thing holding back @pyk's PR being merged is the failing test?
Looks like there's a comment on the PR how to fix it already, but if @pyk is too busy I can re-branch and add it to his work...

[pyk]

I've updated my PR, now all tests are passed successfully 🙏

[rowanu]

Thanks @pyk! 🙇

@jfuss any chance you can have a look at this one and let us know what's needed to be able to merge it? It's a big blocker to using the new HTTP API like the old REST API in SAM 🐿️ 🙏

[sebsto]

Is this supposed to be fixed ?
I can still reproduce this

sam --version
SAM CLI, version 0.53.0

[drissamri]

just tested this with 1.0.0, still not possible

[saminnet]

Yeah with 1.0.0, still doesn't work, it would have been nice to be able to test the api locally!
