spacy with zappa showing error on AWS lambda - aws-lambda

Question

My API was working perfectly fine with AWS lambda using Zappa. But I need spacy for my code to run. The moment I install spacy==2.0.13 and update the zappa dev , the api stops working. It gives 502 error. Kindly help me regarding this. I have already increased the memory size to 3008.
Following is returned as the response body:
{'message': 'An uncaught exception happened while servicing this request. You can investigate this with the zappa tail command.', 'traceback': ['Traceback (most recent call last):\\n', ' File \"/var/task/handler.py\", line 531, in handler\\n with Response.from_app(self.wsgi_app, environ) as response:\\n', ' File \"/var/task/werkzeug/wrappers/base_response.py\", line 287, in from_app\\n return cls(*_run_wsgi_app(app, environ, buffered))\\n', ' File \"/var/task/werkzeug/wrappers/base_response.py\", line 26, in _run_wsgi_app\\n return _run_wsgi_app(*args)\\n', ' File \"/var/task/werkzeug/test.py\", line 1119, in run_wsgi_app\\n app_rv = app(environ, start_response)\\n', \"TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable\\n\"]}

Answer 1

Your error is that there is no space left on the lambda function. SpaCy requires quite a lot of space. Therefore, follow the following suggestions:
