I'm working with this article Asynchronous Amazon Transcribe Streaming SDK for Python.
I'm trying to create a lambda layer for the required libraries.
I used the following command:
pip3 install amazon-transcribe aiofile -t .
But I get the following error when I use the layer in my lambda function:
Unable to import module 'lambda_function': No module named '_awscrt'
The same works fine with virtual environment locally. I'm not sure what's the exact issue.
I even tried installing awscrt separately but it didn't work.
Any kind of help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I built the layer on Amazon Linux and it worked fine!
The troubleshooting guide in the repo helped:
The caio linux implementation works normal for modern linux kernel versions and file systems. So you may have problems specific for your environment. It's not a bug and might be resolved some ways:
1. Upgrade the kernel
2. Use compatible file system
3. Use threads based or pure python implementation.
