i am looking into it, i am using the opportunity to overhaul the travis versions test setup as well. stay tuned

The travis tests are failing because of some linting plus python3.5 not being able to sort dicts during json dumping (i think) i have fixed both issues in a local copy of your branch. I will push them tomorrow when i get time.
Thx for contributing good aditions!

If you dont mind, i'd really like to hear more about how you stumbled upon lambdarest and what you generally use it for and in what scale (just for curiosity)

I found this library because I'm a huge fan of the AWS CDK and I wanted a lightweight library that could help with routing without all of the deploy/infra baggage that comes with Chalice/Zappa/etc.

I was going to roll my own as my first Google results weren't promising. I finally dug this repo up in Google with the right incantation after a few tries 😅.

I'm using it for pet projects at the moment, but, ultimately I'm vetting it for my day job—we build everything in python on AWS.

@adamelmore
i've added your changes including the sort_keys=True

but i've removed the explicit assertion (in the test) that keys are indeed ordered after json encoding as its not part of the JSON rfc:

An object is an unordered collection of zero or more name/value
pairs, where a name is a string and a value is a string, number,
boolean, null, object, or array.

• https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt

else i have revamped the setup/test instructions and switched back to using tox + pyenv for easy local testing against all major supported python versions

btw. i have bumped the version to v8.0.0 as this seems like a breaking change as well as the last one

edit: i am gonna merge this now

@adamelmore its released under v8.0.0 and tested installed:

LOL after squashing and merging it looks like you accomplished quite a lot more! 🤣
