rtweeks / boto3-mocking Goto Github PK

I tried to use boto3_mocking.clients.handler_for('translate', lambda: translate_mock). Where translate_mock is a object I created with mock.Mock(). Unfortunately this does not work.

From your documentation it is not quite clear to me how a handler should look like.

A service handler (whether for a client or a resource) is a callable...

This made me use the lambda. When I run the this:

with boto3_mocking.clients.handler_for('translate', lambda: translate_mock):
    translate = boto3.client('translate')

translate is of type botocore.client.Translate and not the Mock() object.

...a callable that accepts arguments by keyword and returns the mock client or resource as appropriate. The handler should accept the same keywords as the client or service it substitutes.

This is quite confusing. I do not understand what keywords the callable should accept.
