Bug: Pydantic is being imported when using Event Handler without validation

[leandrodamascena]

Expected Behaviour

I'm using ApiGatewayResolver without enabling validation and it shouldn't import Pydantic. Even if a customer has Pydantic installed, they should not import Pydantic without explicitly enabling validation: app = ApiGatewayResolver(enable_validation=True)

Current Behaviour

Profiling the application with tuna, I can see Pydantic being imported:

Code snippet

from aws_lambda_powertools.event_handler import ApiGatewayResolver

app = ApiGatewayResolver(enable_validation=False)

def lambda_handler(event, context):
    return app.resolve(event, context)


requirements.txt
aws-lambda-powertools==2.27.0
aws-xray-sdk==2.12.1
botocore==1.32.3
fastjsonschema==2.19.0
jmespath==1.0.1
pydantic==1.10.13
python-dateutil==2.8.2
six==1.16.0
tuna==0.5.11
typing_extensions==4.8.0
urllib3==2.0.7
wrapt==1.16.0

Possible Solution

Move these imports to an standalone file or import them only when enable_validation is True.

Steps to Reproduce

1 - Create a file
2 - pip install aws-lambda-powertools[all] tuna
3 - Use the code snippet provided
4 - python -X importtime test.py 2> prof1.log
5 - tuna prof1.log
