Python FPDF.output() glitches with AWS Lambda

[rahuldalal99]

Hello,

I am trying to execute my python program to generate pdfs using FPDF module. When I run the program manually, there are no issues. However, when I try to automate the entire process with AWS Lambda, the logs show that the python program execution stops (without an error) after the first call to the fpdf.output('path/to/file.pdf','F'). No statements after this one are executed.

Can someone help me out with this?

Thanks.

Hi @rahuldalal99

Note that PyFPDF is not maintained anymore.
See #207

fpdf2 is its successor: https://pypi.org/project/fpdf2/
I am its maintainer. We have some documentation on using fpdf2 in AWS lambdas:
