I am using the AWS Console and trying to add data to a MySQL table using a Lambda function. Whenever I try to test the function, I get the following error:
Unable to import module 'app' : no module named pymysql
Its acting like pymysql is not in the path. I went into the microEC2 instance and pip'ed pymysql. But it still doesn't work. I have tried zipping my code into a file and uploading and also copying and pasting the code into the console and running it. Neither works. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a code snippet:
import sys
import logging
import pymysql
def main(event, context):
454
The Python "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pymysql'" occurs when we forget to install the PyMySQL module before importing it or install it in an incorrect environment. To solve the error, install the module by running the pip install PyMySQL command.
To resolve this error, create a deployment package or Lambda layer that includes the libraries that you want to use in your Python code for Lambda. Important: Make sure that you put the library that you import for Python inside the /python folder.
Step 1: Go to the AWS management console. Step 2: Click on create function. Step 5: Now try importing the requests module in your lambda function. So, create an event named “myevent” by clicking the down arrow on the test button.
You must package all your project dependency in your deployment.
Copy from your virtual environment the package PyMysql, to the root of directory where your code lives.
Create a zip, and upload it to lambda function
