Overview

An API client for DynamoDB. To construct a client, you need to configure a ‘:region` and `:credentials`.

client = Aws::DynamoDB::Client.new(
  region: region_name,
  credentials: credentials,
  # ...
)

For details on configuring region and credentials see the [developer guide](/sdk-for-ruby/v3/developer-guide/setup-config.html).

See #initialize for a full list of supported configuration options.

#initialize(options) ⇒ Client

Returns a new instance of Client.

Parameters:

  • options (Hash)

Options Hash (options):

  • :credentials (required, Aws::CredentialProvider) —

    Your AWS credentials. This can be an instance of any one of the following classes:

    • ‘Aws::Credentials` - Used for configuring static, non-refreshing credentials.

    • ‘Aws::SharedCredentials` - Used for loading static credentials from a shared file, such as `~/.aws/config`.

    • ‘Aws::AssumeRoleCredentials` - Used when you need to assume a role.

    • ‘Aws::AssumeRoleWebIdentityCredentials` - Used when you need to assume a role after providing credentials via the web.

    • ‘Aws::SSOCredentials` - Used for loading credentials from AWS SSO using an access token generated from `aws login`.

    • ‘Aws::ProcessCredentials` - Used for loading credentials from a process that outputs to stdout.

    • ‘Aws::InstanceProfileCredentials` - Used for loading credentials from an EC2 IMDS on an EC2 instance.

    • ‘Aws::ECSCredentials` - Used for loading credentials from instances running in ECS.

    • ‘Aws::CognitoIdentityCredentials` - Used for loading credentials from the Cognito Identity service.

    When ‘:credentials` are not configured directly, the following locations will be searched for credentials:

    • ‘Aws.config`

    • The ‘:access_key_id`, `:secret_access_key`, and `:session_token` options.

    • ENV, ENV

    • ‘~/.aws/credentials`

    • ‘~/.aws/config`

    • EC2/ECS IMDS instance profile - When used by default, the timeouts are very aggressive. Construct and pass an instance of ‘Aws::InstanceProfileCredentails` or `Aws::ECSCredentials` to enable retries and extended timeouts. Instance profile credential fetching can be disabled by setting ENV to true.

  • :region (required, String) —

    The AWS region to connect to. The configured ‘:region` is used to determine the service `:endpoint`. When not passed, a default `:region` is searched for in the following locations:

  • :access_key_id (String)
  • :active_endpoint_cache (Boolean) — default: false —

    When set to ‘true`, a thread polling for endpoints will be running in the background every 60 secs (default). Defaults to `false`.

  • :adaptive_retry_wait_to_fill (Boolean) — default: true —

    Used only in ‘adaptive` retry mode. When true, the request will sleep until there is sufficent client side capacity to retry the request. When false, the request will raise a `RetryCapacityNotAvailableError` and will not retry instead of sleeping.

  • :client_side_monitoring (Boolean) — default: false —

    When ‘true`, client-side metrics will be collected for all API requests from this client.

  • :client_side_monitoring_client_id (String) — default: "" —

    Required for publishing client metrics. The port that the client side monitoring agent is running on, where client metrics will be published via UDP.

  • :client_side_monitoring_publisher (Aws::ClientSideMonitoring::Publisher) — default: Aws::ClientSideMonitoring::Publisher —

    Allows you to provide a custom client-side monitoring publisher class. By default, will use the Client Side Monitoring Agent Publisher.

  • :compute_checksums (Boolean) — default: true —

    When ‘true`, a CRC32 checksum is computed of every HTTP response body and compared against the `X-Amz-Crc32` header. If the checksums do not match, the request is re-sent. Failures can be retried up to `:retry_limit` times.

  • :convert_params (Boolean) — default: true —

    When ‘true`, an attempt is made to coerce request parameters into the required types.

  • :endpoint_discovery (Boolean) — default: false —

    When set to ‘true`, endpoint discovery will be enabled for operations when available.

  • :ignore_configured_endpoint_urls (Boolean) —

    Setting to true disables use of endpoint URLs provided via environment variables and the shared configuration file.

  • :profile (String) — default: "default" —

    Used when loading credentials from the shared credentials file at HOME/.aws/credentials. When not specified, ‘default’ is used.

  • :request_min_compression_size_bytes (Integer) — default: 10240 —

    The minimum size in bytes that triggers compression for request bodies. The value must be non-negative integer value between 0 and 10485780 bytes inclusive.

  • :retry_backoff (Proc) —

    A proc or lambda used for backoff. Defaults to 2**retries * retry_base_delay. This option is only used in the ‘legacy` retry mode.

  • :retry_base_delay (Float) — default: 0.3 —

    The base delay in seconds used by the default backoff function. This option is only used in the ‘legacy` retry mode.

  • :retry_max_delay (Integer) — default: 0 —

    The maximum number of seconds to delay between retries (0 for no limit) used by the default backoff function. This option is only used in the ‘legacy` retry mode.

  • :retry_mode (String) — default: "legacy" —

    Specifies which retry algorithm to use. Values are:

    • ‘legacy` - The pre-existing retry behavior. This is default value if no retry mode is provided.

    • ‘standard` - A standardized set of retry rules across the AWS SDKs. This includes support for retry quotas, which limit the number of unsuccessful retries a client can make.

    • ‘adaptive` - An experimental retry mode that includes all the functionality of `standard` mode along with automatic client side throttling. This is a provisional mode that may change behavior in the future.

  • :sdk_ua_app_id (String) —

  • :secret_access_key (String)
  • :session_token (String)
  • :simple_attributes (Boolean) — default: true —

    Enables working with DynamoDB attribute values using hashes, arrays, sets, integers, floats, booleans, and nil.

    Disabling this option requires that all attribute values have their types specified, e.g. ‘{ s: ’abc’ }‘ instead of simply `’abc’‘.

  • :simple_json (Boolean) — default: false —

    Disables request parameter conversion, validation, and formatting. Also disable response data type conversions. This option is useful when you want to ensure the highest level of performance by avoiding overhead of walking request parameters and response data structures.

    When ‘:simple_json` is enabled, the request parameters hash must be formatted exactly as the DynamoDB API expects.

  • :stub_responses (Boolean) — default: false —

    Causes the client to return stubbed responses. By default fake responses are generated and returned. You can specify the response data to return or errors to raise by calling ClientStubs#stub_responses. See ClientStubs for more information.

    ** Please note ** When response stubbing is enabled, no HTTP requests are made, and retries are disabled.

  • :token_provider (Aws::TokenProvider) —

    A Bearer Token Provider. This can be an instance of any one of the following classes:

    • ‘Aws::StaticTokenProvider` - Used for configuring static, non-refreshing tokens.

    • ‘Aws::SSOTokenProvider` - Used for loading tokens from AWS SSO using an access token generated from `aws login`.

    When ‘:token_provider` is not configured directly, the `Aws::TokenProviderChain` will be used to search for tokens configured for your profile in shared configuration files.

  • :use_dualstack_endpoint (Boolean) —

    When set to ‘true`, dualstack enabled endpoints (with `.aws` TLD) will be used if available.

  • :use_fips_endpoint (Boolean) —

    When set to ‘true`, fips compatible endpoints will be used if available. When a `fips` region is used, the region is normalized and this config is set to `true`.

  • :validate_params (Boolean) — default: true —

    When ‘true`, request parameters are validated before sending the request.

  • :endpoint_provider (Aws::DynamoDB::EndpointProvider) —

    The endpoint provider used to resolve endpoints. Any object that responds to ‘#resolve_endpoint(parameters)` where `parameters` is a Struct similar to `Aws::DynamoDB::EndpointParameters`

  • :http_proxy (URI::HTTP, String) —

    A proxy to send requests through. Formatted like ‘proxy.com:123’.

  • :http_open_timeout (Float) — default: 15 —

    The number of seconds to wait when opening a HTTP session before raising a ‘Timeout::Error`.

  • :http_read_timeout (Float) — default: 60 —

    The default number of seconds to wait for response data. This value can safely be set per-request on the session.

  • :http_idle_timeout (Float) — default: 5 —

    The number of seconds a connection is allowed to sit idle before it is considered stale. Stale connections are closed and removed from the pool before making a request.

  • :http_continue_timeout (Float) — default: 1 —

    The number of seconds to wait for a 100-continue response before sending the request body. This option has no effect unless the request has “Expect” header set to “100-continue”. Defaults to ‘nil` which disables this behaviour. This value can safely be set per request on the session.

  • :ssl_timeout (Float) — default: nil —

    Sets the SSL timeout in seconds.

  • :http_wire_trace (Boolean) — default: false —

    When ‘true`, HTTP debug output will be sent to the `:logger`.

  • :ssl_verify_peer (Boolean) — default: true —

    When ‘true`, SSL peer certificates are verified when establishing a connection.

  • :ssl_ca_bundle (String) —

    Full path to the SSL certificate authority bundle file that should be used when verifying peer certificates. If you do not pass ‘:ssl_ca_bundle` or `:ssl_ca_directory` the the system default will be used if available.

  • :ssl_ca_directory (String) —

    Full path of the directory that contains the unbundled SSL certificate authority files for verifying peer certificates. If you do not pass ‘:ssl_ca_bundle` or `:ssl_ca_directory` the the system default will be used if available.

Instance Method Details

#batch_execute_statement(params = {}) ⇒ Types::BatchExecuteStatementOutput

This operation allows you to perform batch reads or writes on data stored in DynamoDB, using PartiQL. Each read statement in a ‘BatchExecuteStatement` must specify an equality condition on all key attributes. This enforces that each `SELECT` statement in a batch returns at most a single item.

<note markdown=“1”> The entire batch must consist of either read statements or write statements, you cannot mix both in one batch.

</note>

A HTTP 200 response does not mean that all statements in the BatchExecuteStatement succeeded. Error details for individual statements can be found under the [Error] field of the ‘BatchStatementResponse` for each statement.

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :statements (required, Array<Types::BatchStatementRequest>) —

    The list of PartiQL statements representing the batch to run.

  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

Returns:

end

#batch_get_item(params = {}) ⇒ Types::BatchGetItemOutput

The ‘BatchGetItem` operation returns the attributes of one or more items from one or more tables. You identify requested items by primary key.

A single operation can retrieve up to 16 MB of data, which can contain as many as 100 items. ‘BatchGetItem` returns a partial result if the response size limit is exceeded, the table’s provisioned throughput is exceeded, more than 1MB per partition is requested, or an internal processing failure occurs. If a partial result is returned, the operation returns a value for ‘UnprocessedKeys`. You can use this value to retry the operation starting with the next item to get.

If you request more than 100 items, ‘BatchGetItem` returns a `ValidationException` with the message “Too many items requested for the BatchGetItem call.”

For example, if you ask to retrieve 100 items, but each individual item is 300 KB in size, the system returns 52 items (so as not to exceed the 16 MB limit). It also returns an appropriate ‘UnprocessedKeys` value so you can get the next page of results. If desired, your application can include its own logic to assemble the pages of results into one dataset.

If none of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned throughput on all of the tables in the request, then ‘BatchGetItem` returns a `ProvisionedThroughputExceededException`. If *at least one* of the items is successfully processed, then `BatchGetItem` completes successfully, while returning the keys of the unread items in `UnprocessedKeys`.

If DynamoDB returns any unprocessed items, you should retry the batch operation on those items. However, *we strongly recommend that you use an exponential backoff algorithm*. If you retry the batch operation immediately, the underlying read or write requests can still fail due to throttling on the individual tables. If you delay the batch operation using exponential backoff, the individual requests in the batch are much more likely to succeed.

For more information, see [Batch Operations and Error Handling][1] in

the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

By default, ‘BatchGetItem` performs eventually consistent reads on every table in the request. If you want strongly consistent reads instead, you can set `ConsistentRead` to `true` for any or all tables.

In order to minimize response latency, ‘BatchGetItem` may retrieve items in parallel.

When designing your application, keep in mind that DynamoDB does not return items in any particular order. To help parse the response by item, include the primary key values for the items in your request in the ‘ProjectionExpression` parameter.

If a requested item does not exist, it is not returned in the result. Requests for nonexistent items consume the minimum read capacity units according to the type of read. For more information, see [Working with Tables] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

[1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ErrorHandling.html#BatchOperations [2]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/WorkingWithTables.html#CapacityUnitCalculations

The returned response is a pageable response and is Enumerable. For details on usage see PageableResponse.

Examples:

Example: To retrieve multiple items from a table


# This example reads multiple items from the Music table using a batch of three GetItem requests.  Only the AlbumTitle
# attribute is returned.

resp = client.batch_get_item({
  request_items: {
    "Music" => {
      keys: [
        {
          "Artist" => "No One You Know", 
          "SongTitle" => "Call Me Today", 
        }, 
        {
          "Artist" => "Acme Band", 
          "SongTitle" => "Happy Day", 
        }, 
        {
          "Artist" => "No One You Know", 
          "SongTitle" => "Scared of My Shadow", 
        }, 
      ], 
      projection_expression: "AlbumTitle", 
    }, 
  }, 
})

resp.to_h outputs the following:
{
  responses: {
    "Music" => [
      {
        "AlbumTitle" => "Somewhat Famous", 
      }, 
      {
        "AlbumTitle" => "Blue Sky Blues",

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :request_items (required, Hash<String,Types::KeysAndAttributes>) —

    A map of one or more table names and, for each table, a map that describes one or more items to retrieve from that table. Each table name can be used only once per ‘BatchGetItem` request.

    Each element in the map of items to retrieve consists of the following:

    • ‘ConsistentRead` - If `true`, a strongly consistent read is used; if `false` (the default), an eventually consistent read is used.

    • ‘ExpressionAttributeNames` - One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in the `ProjectionExpression` parameter. The following are some use cases for using `ExpressionAttributeNames`:

      • To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word.

      • To create a placeholder for repeating occurrences of an attribute name in an expression.

      • To prevent special characters in an attribute name from being misinterpreted in an expression.

      Use the **#** character in an expression to dereference an attribute name. For example, consider the following attribute name:

      • ‘Percentile`

      ^

      The name of this attribute conflicts with a reserved word, so it cannot be used directly in an expression. (For the complete list of reserved words, see [Reserved Words] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*). To work around this, you could specify the following for ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

      • ‘“#P”:“Percentile”`

      ^

      You could then use this substitution in an expression, as in this example:

      • ‘#P = :val`

      ^

      <note markdown=“1”> Tokens that begin with the : character are *expression attribute values*, which are placeholders for the actual value at runtime.

      </note>

      For more information about expression attribute names, see

      Accessing Item Attributes][2

      in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer

      Guide*.

    • ‘Keys` - An array of primary key attribute values that define specific items in the table. For each primary key, you must provide all of the key attributes. For example, with a simple primary key, you only need to provide the partition key value. For a composite key, you must provide both the partition key value and the sort key value.

    • ‘ProjectionExpression` - A string that identifies one or more attributes to retrieve from the table. These attributes can include scalars, sets, or elements of a JSON document. The attributes in the expression must be separated by commas.

      If no attribute names are specified, then all attributes are returned. If any of the requested attributes are not found, they do not appear in the result.

      For more information, see [Accessing Item Attributes] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    • ‘AttributesToGet` - This is a legacy parameter. Use `ProjectionExpression` instead. For more information, see

  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

Returns:

#batch_write_item(params = {}) ⇒ Types::BatchWriteItemOutput

The ‘BatchWriteItem` operation puts or deletes multiple items in one or more tables. A single call to `BatchWriteItem` can transmit up to 16MB of data over the network, consisting of up to 25 item put or delete operations. While individual items can be up to 400 KB once stored, it’s important to note that an item’s representation might be greater than 400KB while being sent in DynamoDB’s JSON format for the API call. For more details on this distinction, see [Naming Rules and Data Types].

<note markdown=“1”> ‘BatchWriteItem` cannot update items. If you perform a `BatchWriteItem` operation on an existing item, that item’s values will be overwritten by the operation and it will appear like it was updated. To update items, we recommend you use the ‘UpdateItem` action.

</note>

The individual ‘PutItem` and `DeleteItem` operations specified in `BatchWriteItem` are atomic; however `BatchWriteItem` as a whole is not. If any requested operations fail because the table’s provisioned throughput is exceeded or an internal processing failure occurs, the failed operations are returned in the ‘UnprocessedItems` response parameter. You can investigate and optionally resend the requests. Typically, you would call `BatchWriteItem` in a loop. Each iteration would check for unprocessed items and submit a new `BatchWriteItem` request with those unprocessed items until all items have been processed.

If none of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned throughput on all of the tables in the request, then ‘BatchWriteItem` returns a `ProvisionedThroughputExceededException`.

If DynamoDB returns any unprocessed items, you should retry the batch operation on those items. However, *we strongly recommend that you use an exponential backoff algorithm*. If you retry the batch operation immediately, the underlying read or write requests can still fail due to throttling on the individual tables. If you delay the batch operation using exponential backoff, the individual requests in the batch are much more likely to succeed.

For more information, see [Batch Operations and Error Handling][2] in

the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

With ‘BatchWriteItem`, you can efficiently write or delete large amounts of data, such as from Amazon EMR, or copy data from another database into DynamoDB. In order to improve performance with these large-scale operations, `BatchWriteItem` does not behave in the same way as individual `PutItem` and `DeleteItem` calls would. For example, you cannot specify conditions on individual put and delete requests, and `BatchWriteItem` does not return deleted items in the response.

If you use a programming language that supports concurrency, you can use threads to write items in parallel. Your application must include the necessary logic to manage the threads. With languages that don’t support threading, you must update or delete the specified items one at a time. In both situations, ‘BatchWriteItem` performs the specified put and delete operations in parallel, giving you the power of the thread pool approach without having to introduce complexity into your application.

Parallel processing reduces latency, but each specified put and delete request consumes the same number of write capacity units whether it is processed in parallel or not. Delete operations on nonexistent items consume one write capacity unit.

If one or more of the following is true, DynamoDB rejects the entire batch write operation:

  • One or more tables specified in the ‘BatchWriteItem` request does not exist.

  • Primary key attributes specified on an item in the request do not match those in the corresponding table’s primary key schema.

  • You try to perform multiple operations on the same item in the same ‘BatchWriteItem` request. For example, you cannot put and delete the same item in the same `BatchWriteItem` request.

  • Your request contains at least two items with identical hash and range keys (which essentially is two put operations).

  • There are more than 25 requests in the batch.

  • Any individual item in a batch exceeds 400 KB.

  • The total request size exceeds 16 MB.

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :request_items (required, Hash<String,Array>) —

    A map of one or more table names and, for each table, a list of operations to be performed (‘DeleteRequest` or `PutRequest`). Each element in the map consists of the following:

    • ‘DeleteRequest` - Perform a `DeleteItem` operation on the specified item. The item to be deleted is identified by a `Key` subelement:

      • ‘Key` - A map of primary key attribute values that uniquely identify the item. Each entry in this map consists of an attribute name and an attribute value. For each primary key, you must provide all of the key attributes. For example, with a simple primary key, you only need to provide a value for the partition key. For a composite primary key, you must provide values for both the partition key and the sort key.

      ^

    • ‘PutRequest` - Perform a `PutItem` operation on the specified item. The item to be put is identified by an `Item` subelement:

      • ‘Item` - A map of attributes and their values. Each entry in this map consists of an attribute name and an attribute value. Attribute values must not be null; string and binary type attributes must have lengths greater than zero; and set type attributes must not be empty. Requests that contain empty values are rejected with a `ValidationException` exception.

        If you specify any attributes that are part of an index key, then the data types for those attributes must match those of the schema in the table’s attribute definition.

  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

  • :return_item_collection_metrics (String) —

    Determines whether item collection metrics are returned. If set to ‘SIZE`, the response includes statistics about item collections, if any, that were modified during the operation are returned in the response. If set to `NONE` (the default), no statistics are returned.

Returns:

#create_backup(params = {}) ⇒ Types::CreateBackupOutput

Creates a backup for an existing table.

Each time you create an on-demand backup, the entire table data is backed up. There is no limit to the number of on-demand backups that can be taken.

When you create an on-demand backup, a time marker of the request is cataloged, and the backup is created asynchronously, by applying all changes until the time of the request to the last full table snapshot. Backup requests are processed instantaneously and become available for restore within minutes.

You can call ‘CreateBackup` at a maximum rate of 50 times per second.

All backups in DynamoDB work without consuming any provisioned throughput on the table.

If you submit a backup request on 2018-12-14 at 14:25:00, the backup is guaranteed to contain all data committed to the table up to 14:24:00, and data committed after 14:26:00 will not be. The backup might contain data modifications made between 14:24:00 and 14:26:00. On-demand backup does not support causal consistency.

Along with data, the following are also included on the backups:

  • Global secondary indexes (GSIs)

  • Local secondary indexes (LSIs)

  • Streams

  • Provisioned read and write capacity

Examples:

#create_global_table(params = {}) ⇒ Types::CreateGlobalTableOutput

Creates a global table from an existing table. A global table creates a replication relationship between two or more DynamoDB tables with the same table name in the provided Regions.

This operation only applies to [Version 2017.11.29 (Legacy)] of global tables. We recommend using [Version 2019.11.21 (Current)] when creating new global tables, as it provides greater flexibility, higher efficiency and consumes less write capacity than 2017.11.29 (Legacy). To determine which version you are using, see [Determining the version]. To update existing global tables from version 2017.11.29 (Legacy) to version 2019.11.21 (Current), see [ Updating global tables].

If you want to add a new replica table to a global table, each of the following conditions must be true:

  • The table must have the same primary key as all of the other replicas.

  • The table must have the same name as all of the other replicas.

  • The table must have DynamoDB Streams enabled, with the stream containing both the new and the old images of the item.

  • None of the replica tables in the global table can contain any data.

If global secondary indexes are specified, then the following conditions must also be met:

  • The global secondary indexes must have the same name.

  • The global secondary indexes must have the same hash key and sort key (if present).

If local secondary indexes are specified, then the following conditions must also be met:

  • The local secondary indexes must have the same name.

  • The local secondary indexes must have the same hash key and sort key (if present).

Write capacity settings should be set consistently across your replica tables and secondary indexes. DynamoDB strongly recommends enabling auto scaling to manage the write capacity settings for all of your global tables replicas and indexes.

If you prefer to manage write capacity settings manually, you should

provision equal replicated write capacity units to your replica tables. You should also provision equal replicated write capacity units to matching secondary indexes across your global table.

#create_table(params = {}) ⇒ Types::CreateTableOutput

The ‘CreateTable` operation adds a new table to your account. In an Amazon Web Services account, table names must be unique within each Region. That is, you can have two tables with same name if you create the tables in different Regions.

‘CreateTable` is an asynchronous operation. Upon receiving a `CreateTable` request, DynamoDB immediately returns a response with a `TableStatus` of `CREATING`. After the table is created, DynamoDB sets the `TableStatus` to `ACTIVE`. You can perform read and write operations only on an `ACTIVE` table.

You can optionally define secondary indexes on the new table, as part of the ‘CreateTable` operation. If you want to create multiple tables with secondary indexes on them, you must create the tables sequentially. Only one table with secondary indexes can be in the `CREATING` state at any given time.

You can use the ‘DescribeTable` action to check the table status.

Examples:

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :attribute_definitions (required, Array<Types::AttributeDefinition>) —

    An array of attributes that describe the key schema for the table and indexes.

  • :table_name (required, String) —

    The name of the table to create.

  • :key_schema (required, Array<Types::KeySchemaElement>) —

    Specifies the attributes that make up the primary key for a table or an index. The attributes in ‘KeySchema` must also be defined in the `AttributeDefinitions` array. For more information, see [Data Model] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    Each ‘KeySchemaElement` in the array is composed of:

    • ‘AttributeName` - The name of this key attribute.

    • ‘KeyType` - The role that the key attribute will assume:

      • ‘HASH` - partition key

      • ‘RANGE` - sort key

    <note markdown=“1”> The partition key of an item is also known as its *hash attribute*. The term “hash attribute” derives from the DynamoDB usage of an internal hash function to evenly distribute data items across partitions, based on their partition key values.

    The sort key of an item is also known as its *range attribute*. The

    term “range attribute” derives from the way DynamoDB stores items with the same partition key physically close together, in sorted order by the sort key value.

    </note>

    For a simple primary key (partition key), you must provide exactly one element with a ‘KeyType` of `HASH`.

    For a composite primary key (partition key and sort key), you must provide exactly two elements, in this order: The first element must have a ‘KeyType` of `HASH`, and the second element must have a `KeyType` of `RANGE`.

    For more information, see [Working with Tables] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

  • :local_secondary_indexes (Array<Types::LocalSecondaryIndex>) —

    One or more local secondary indexes (the maximum is 5) to be created on the table. Each index is scoped to a given partition key value. There is a 10 GB size limit per partition key value; otherwise, the size of a local secondary index is unconstrained.

    Each local secondary index in the array includes the following:

    • ‘IndexName` - The name of the local secondary index. Must be unique only for this table.

    • ‘KeySchema` - Specifies the key schema for the local secondary index. The key schema must begin with the same partition key as the table.

    • ‘Projection` - Specifies attributes that are copied (projected) from the table into the index. These are in addition to the primary key attributes and index key attributes, which are automatically projected. Each attribute specification is composed of:

      • ‘ProjectionType` - One of the following:

        • ‘KEYS_ONLY` - Only the index and primary keys are projected into the index.

        • ‘INCLUDE` - Only the specified table attributes are projected into the index. The list of projected attributes is in `NonKeyAttributes`.

        • ‘ALL` - All of the table attributes are projected into the index.

      • ‘NonKeyAttributes` - A list of one or more non-key attribute names that are projected into the secondary index. The total count of attributes provided in `NonKeyAttributes`, summed across all of the secondary indexes, must not exceed 100. If you project the same attribute into two different indexes, this counts as two distinct attributes when determining the total.

  • :global_secondary_indexes (Array<Types::GlobalSecondaryIndex>) —

    One or more global secondary indexes (the maximum is 20) to be created on the table. Each global secondary index in the array includes the following:

    • ‘IndexName` - The name of the global secondary index. Must be unique only for this table.

    • ‘KeySchema` - Specifies the key schema for the global secondary index.

    • ‘Projection` - Specifies attributes that are copied (projected) from the table into the index. These are in addition to the primary key attributes and index key attributes, which are automatically projected. Each attribute specification is composed of:

      • ‘ProjectionType` - One of the following:

        • ‘KEYS_ONLY` - Only the index and primary keys are projected into the index.

        • ‘INCLUDE` - Only the specified table attributes are projected into the index. The list of projected attributes is in `NonKeyAttributes`.

        • ‘ALL` - All of the table attributes are projected into the index.

      • ‘NonKeyAttributes` - A list of one or more non-key attribute names that are projected into the secondary index. The total count of attributes provided in `NonKeyAttributes`, summed across all of the secondary indexes, must not exceed 100. If you project the same attribute into two different indexes, this counts as two distinct attributes when determining the total.

    • ‘ProvisionedThroughput` - The provisioned throughput settings for the global secondary index, consisting of read and write capacity units.

  • :billing_mode (String) —

    Controls how you are charged for read and write throughput and how you manage capacity. This setting can be changed later.

    • ‘PROVISIONED` - We recommend using `PROVISIONED` for predictable workloads. `PROVISIONED` sets the billing mode to [Provisioned Mode].

    • ‘PAY_PER_REQUEST` - We recommend using `PAY_PER_REQUEST` for unpredictable workloads. `PAY_PER_REQUEST` sets the billing mode to [On-Demand Mode].

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/HowItWorks.ReadWriteCapacityMode.html#HowItWorks.ProvisionedThroughput.Manual [2]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/HowItWorks.ReadWriteCapacityMode.html#HowItWorks.OnDemand

  • :provisioned_throughput (Types::ProvisionedThroughput) —

    Represents the provisioned throughput settings for a specified table or index. The settings can be modified using the ‘UpdateTable` operation.

    If you set BillingMode as ‘PROVISIONED`, you must specify this property. If you set BillingMode as `PAY_PER_REQUEST`, you cannot specify this property.

    For current minimum and maximum provisioned throughput values, see

    Service, Account, and Table Quotas][1

    in the *Amazon DynamoDB

    Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Limits.html

  • :stream_specification (Types::StreamSpecification) —

    The settings for DynamoDB Streams on the table. These settings consist of:

    • ‘StreamEnabled` - Indicates whether DynamoDB Streams is to be enabled (true) or disabled (false).

    • ‘StreamViewType` - When an item in the table is modified, `StreamViewType` determines what information is written to the table’s stream. Valid values for ‘StreamViewType` are:

      • ‘KEYS_ONLY` - Only the key attributes of the modified item are written to the stream.

      • ‘NEW_IMAGE` - The entire item, as it appears after it was modified, is written to the stream.

      • ‘OLD_IMAGE` - The entire item, as it appeared before it was modified, is written to the stream.

      • ‘NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES` - Both the new and the old item images of the item are written to the stream.

  • :sse_specification (Types::SSESpecification) —

    Represents the settings used to enable server-side encryption.

  • :tags (Array<Types::Tag>) —

    A list of key-value pairs to label the table. For more information, see [Tagging for DynamoDB].

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Tagging.html

  • :table_class (String) —

    The table class of the new table. Valid values are ‘STANDARD` and `STANDARD_INFREQUENT_ACCESS`.

  • :deletion_protection_enabled (Boolean) —

    Indicates whether deletion protection is to be enabled (true) or disabled (false) on the table.

Returns:

#delete_item(params = {}) ⇒ Types::DeleteItemOutput

Deletes a single item in a table by primary key. You can perform a conditional delete operation that deletes the item if it exists, or if it has an expected attribute value.

In addition to deleting an item, you can also return the item’s attribute values in the same operation, using the ‘ReturnValues` parameter.

Unless you specify conditions, the ‘DeleteItem` is an idempotent operation; running it multiple times on the same item or attribute does not result in an error response.

Conditional deletes are useful for deleting items only if specific conditions are met. If those conditions are met, DynamoDB performs the delete. Otherwise, the item is not deleted.

Examples:

Example: To delete an item


# This example deletes an item from the Music table.

resp = client.delete_item({
  key: {
    "Artist" => "No One You Know", 
    "SongTitle" => "Scared of My Shadow", 
  }, 
  table_name: "Music", 
})

resp.to_h outputs the following:
{
  consumed_capacity: {
    capacity_units: 1, 
    table_name: "Music", 
  }, 
}

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :table_name (required, String) —

    The name of the table from which to delete the item.

  • :key (required, Hash<String,Types::AttributeValue>) —

    A map of attribute names to ‘AttributeValue` objects, representing the primary key of the item to delete.

    For the primary key, you must provide all of the key attributes. For example, with a simple primary key, you only need to provide a value for the partition key. For a composite primary key, you must provide values for both the partition key and the sort key.

  • :expected (Hash<String,Types::ExpectedAttributeValue>) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘ConditionExpression` instead. For more information, see [Expected] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.Expected.html

  • :conditional_operator (String) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘ConditionExpression` instead. For more information, see [ConditionalOperator] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.ConditionalOperator.html

  • :return_values (String) —

    Use ‘ReturnValues` if you want to get the item attributes as they appeared before they were deleted. For `DeleteItem`, the valid values are:

    • ‘NONE` - If `ReturnValues` is not specified, or if its value is `NONE`, then nothing is returned. (This setting is the default for `ReturnValues`.)

    • ‘ALL_OLD` - The content of the old item is returned.

    There is no additional cost associated with requesting a return value aside from the small network and processing overhead of receiving a larger response. No read capacity units are consumed.

    <note markdown=“1”> The ‘ReturnValues` parameter is used by several DynamoDB operations; however, `DeleteItem` does not recognize any values other than `NONE` or `ALL_OLD`.

    </note>
  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

  • :return_item_collection_metrics (String) —

    Determines whether item collection metrics are returned. If set to ‘SIZE`, the response includes statistics about item collections, if any, that were modified during the operation are returned in the response. If set to `NONE` (the default), no statistics are returned.

  • :condition_expression (String) —

    A condition that must be satisfied in order for a conditional ‘DeleteItem` to succeed.

    An expression can contain any of the following:

    • Functions: ‘attribute_exists | attribute_not_exists | attribute_type | contains | begins_with | size`

      These function names are case-sensitive.

    • Comparison operators: ‘= | <> | < | > | <= | >= | BETWEEN | IN `

    • Logical operators: ‘AND | OR | NOT`

    For more information about condition expressions, see [Condition Expressions] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Expressions.SpecifyingConditions.html

  • :expression_attribute_names (Hash<String,String>) —

    One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in an expression. The following are some use cases for using ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word.

    • To create a placeholder for repeating occurrences of an attribute name in an expression.

    • To prevent special characters in an attribute name from being misinterpreted in an expression.

    Use the **#** character in an expression to dereference an attribute name. For example, consider the following attribute name:

    • ‘Percentile`

    ^

    The name of this attribute conflicts with a reserved word, so it cannot be used directly in an expression. (For the complete list of reserved words, see [Reserved Words] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*). To work around this, you could specify the following for ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • ‘“#P”:“Percentile”`

    ^

    You could then use this substitution in an expression, as in this example:

    • ‘#P = :val`

    ^

    <note markdown=“1”> Tokens that begin with the : character are *expression attribute values*, which are placeholders for the actual value at runtime.

  • :expression_attribute_values (Hash<String,Types::AttributeValue>) —

    One or more values that can be substituted in an expression.

    Use the : (colon) character in an expression to dereference an attribute value. For example, suppose that you wanted to check whether the value of the ProductStatus attribute was one of the following:

    ‘Available | Backordered | Discontinued`

    You would first need to specify ‘ExpressionAttributeValues` as follows:

    ‘{ “:avail”:“S”:“Available”, “:back”:“S”:“Backordered”, “:disc”:“S”:“Discontinued” }`

    You could then use these values in an expression, such as this:

    ‘ProductStatus IN (:avail, :back, :disc)`

    For more information on expression attribute values, see [Condition Expressions] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Expressions.SpecifyingConditions.html

  • :return_values_on_condition_check_failure (String) —

    An optional parameter that returns the item attributes for a ‘DeleteItem` operation that failed a condition check.

    There is no additional cost associated with requesting a return value aside from the small network and processing overhead of receiving a larger response. No read capacity units are consumed.

Returns:

#delete_table(params = {}) ⇒ Types::DeleteTableOutput

The ‘DeleteTable` operation deletes a table and all of its items. After a `DeleteTable` request, the specified table is in the `DELETING` state until DynamoDB completes the deletion. If the table is in the `ACTIVE` state, you can delete it. If a table is in `CREATING` or `UPDATING` states, then DynamoDB returns a `ResourceInUseException`. If the specified table does not exist, DynamoDB returns a `ResourceNotFoundException`. If table is already in the `DELETING` state, no error is returned.

This operation only applies to [Version 2019.11.21 (Current)] of global tables.

<note markdown=“1”> DynamoDB might continue to accept data read and write operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `PutItem`, on a table in the `DELETING` state until the table deletion is complete.

</note>

When you delete a table, any indexes on that table are also deleted.

If you have DynamoDB Streams enabled on the table, then the corresponding stream on that table goes into the ‘DISABLED` state, and the stream is automatically deleted after 24 hours.

Use the ‘DescribeTable` action to check the status of the table.

Example: To delete a table


# This example deletes the Music table.

resp = client.delete_table({
  table_name: "Music",

#describe_continuous_backups(params = {}) ⇒ Types::DescribeContinuousBackupsOutput

Checks the status of continuous backups and point in time recovery on the specified table. Continuous backups are ‘ENABLED` on all tables at table creation. If point in time recovery is enabled, `PointInTimeRecoveryStatus` will be set to ENABLED.

After continuous backups and point in time recovery are enabled, you can restore to any point in time within ‘EarliestRestorableDateTime` and `LatestRestorableDateTime`.

‘LatestRestorableDateTime` is typically 5 minutes before the current time. You can restore your table to any point in time during the last 35 days.

You can call ‘DescribeContinuousBackups` at a maximum rate of 10 times per second.

#describe_limits(params = {}) ⇒ Types::DescribeLimitsOutput

Returns the current provisioned-capacity quotas for your Amazon Web Services account in a Region, both for the Region as a whole and for any one DynamoDB table that you create there.

When you establish an Amazon Web Services account, the account has initial quotas on the maximum read capacity units and write capacity units that you can provision across all of your DynamoDB tables in a given Region. Also, there are per-table quotas that apply when you create a table there. For more information, see [Service, Account, and Table Quotas] page in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

Although you can increase these quotas by filing a case at [Amazon Web Services Support Center], obtaining the increase is not instantaneous. The ‘DescribeLimits` action lets you write code to compare the capacity you are currently using to those quotas imposed by your account so that you have enough time to apply for an increase before you hit a quota.

For example, you could use one of the Amazon Web Services SDKs to do the following:

  1. Call ‘DescribeLimits` for a particular Region to obtain your current account quotas on provisioned capacity there.

  2. Create a variable to hold the aggregate read capacity units provisioned for all your tables in that Region, and one to hold the aggregate write capacity units. Zero them both.

  3. Call ‘ListTables` to obtain a list of all your DynamoDB tables.

  4. For each table name listed by ‘ListTables`, do the following:

    • Call ‘DescribeTable` with the table name.

    • Use the data returned by ‘DescribeTable` to add the read capacity units and write capacity units provisioned for the table itself to your variables.

    • If the table has one or more global secondary indexes (GSIs), loop over these GSIs and add their provisioned capacity values to your variables as well.

  5. Report the account quotas for that Region returned by ‘DescribeLimits`, along with the total current provisioned capacity levels you have calculated.

This will let you see whether you are getting close to your account-level quotas.

The per-table quotas apply only when you are creating a new table. They restrict the sum of the provisioned capacity of the new table itself and all its global secondary indexes.

For existing tables and their GSIs, DynamoDB doesn’t let you increase provisioned capacity extremely rapidly, but the only quota that applies is that the aggregate provisioned capacity over all your tables and GSIs cannot exceed either of the per-account quotas.

<note markdown=“1”> ‘DescribeLimits` should only be called periodically. You can expect throttling errors if you call it more than once in a minute.

</note>

The ‘DescribeLimits` Request element has no content.

#describe_table(params = {}) ⇒ Types::DescribeTableOutput

Returns information about the table, including the current status of the table, when it was created, the primary key schema, and any indexes on the table.

This operation only applies to [Version 2019.11.21 (Current)] of global tables.

<note markdown=“1”> If you issue a ‘DescribeTable` request immediately after a `CreateTable` request, DynamoDB might return a `ResourceNotFoundException`. This is because `DescribeTable` uses an eventually consistent query, and the metadata for your table might not be available at that moment. Wait for a few seconds, and then try the `DescribeTable` request again.

</note>

[1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/globaltables.V2.html

The following waiters are defined for this operation (see #wait_until for detailed usage):

* table_exists
* table_not_exists

#execute_statement(params = {}) ⇒ Types::ExecuteStatementOutput

This operation allows you to perform reads and singleton writes on data stored in DynamoDB, using PartiQL.

For PartiQL reads (‘SELECT` statement), if the total number of processed items exceeds the maximum dataset size limit of 1 MB, the read stops and results are returned to the user as a `LastEvaluatedKey` value to continue the read in a subsequent operation. If the filter criteria in `WHERE` clause does not match any data, the read will return an empty result set.

A single ‘SELECT` statement response can return up to the maximum number of items (if using the Limit parameter) or a maximum of 1 MB of data (and then apply any filtering to the results using `WHERE` clause). If `LastEvaluatedKey` is present in the response, you need to paginate the result set. If `NextToken` is present, you need to paginate the result set and include `NextToken`.

Examples:

Request syntax with placeholder values


resp = client.execute_statement({
  statement: "PartiQLStatement", # required
  parameters: ["value"], # value <Hash,Array,String,Numeric,Boolean,IO,Set,nil>
  consistent_read: false,
  next_token: "PartiQLNextToken",
  return_consumed_capacity: "INDEXES", # accepts INDEXES, TOTAL, NONE

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :statement (required, String) —

    The PartiQL statement representing the operation to run.

  • :parameters (Array<Types::AttributeValue>) —

    The parameters for the PartiQL statement, if any.

  • :consistent_read (Boolean) —

    The consistency of a read operation. If set to ‘true`, then a strongly consistent read is used; otherwise, an eventually consistent read is used.

  • :next_token (String) —

    Set this value to get remaining results, if ‘NextToken` was returned in the statement response.

  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

  • :limit (Integer) —

    The maximum number of items to evaluate (not necessarily the number of matching items). If DynamoDB processes the number of items up to the limit while processing the results, it stops the operation and returns the matching values up to that point, along with a key in ‘LastEvaluatedKey` to apply in a subsequent operation so you can pick up where you left off. Also, if the processed dataset size exceeds 1 MB before DynamoDB reaches this limit, it stops the operation and returns the matching values up to the limit, and a key in `LastEvaluatedKey` to apply in a subsequent operation to continue the operation.

  • :return_values_on_condition_check_failure (String) —

    An optional parameter that returns the item attributes for an ‘ExecuteStatement` operation that failed a condition check.

    There is no additional cost associated with requesting a return value aside from the small network and processing overhead of receiving a larger response. No read capacity units are consumed.

Returns:

#execute_transaction(params = {}) ⇒ Types::ExecuteTransactionOutput

This operation allows you to perform transactional reads or writes on data stored in DynamoDB, using PartiQL.

<note markdown=“1”> The entire transaction must consist of either read statements or write statements, you cannot mix both in one transaction. The EXISTS function is an exception and can be used to check the condition of specific attributes of the item in a similar manner to ‘ConditionCheck` in the [TransactWriteItems] API.

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :table_arn (required, String) —

    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) associated with the table to export.

  • :export_time (Time, DateTime, Date, Integer, String) —

    Time in the past from which to export table data, counted in seconds from the start of the Unix epoch. The table export will be a snapshot of the table’s state at this point in time.

  • :client_token (String) —

    Providing a ‘ClientToken` makes the call to `ExportTableToPointInTimeInput` idempotent, meaning that multiple identical calls have the same effect as one single call.

    A client token is valid for 8 hours after the first request that uses it is completed. After 8 hours, any request with the same client token is treated as a new request. Do not resubmit the same request with the same client token for more than 8 hours, or the result might not be idempotent.

    If you submit a request with the same client token but a change in other parameters within the 8-hour idempotency window, DynamoDB returns an ‘ImportConflictException`.

    **A suitable default value is auto-generated.** You should normally not need to pass this option.**

  • :s3_bucket (required, String) —

    The name of the Amazon S3 bucket to export the snapshot to.

  • :s3_bucket_owner (String) —

    The ID of the Amazon Web Services account that owns the bucket the export will be stored in.

  • :s3_prefix (String) —

    The Amazon S3 bucket prefix to use as the file name and path of the exported snapshot.

  • :s3_sse_algorithm (String) —

    Type of encryption used on the bucket where export data will be stored. Valid values for ‘S3SseAlgorithm` are:

    • ‘AES256` - server-side encryption with Amazon S3 managed keys

    • ‘KMS` - server-side encryption with KMS managed keys

  • :s3_sse_kms_key_id (String) —

    The ID of the KMS managed key used to encrypt the S3 bucket where export data will be stored (if applicable).

  • :export_format (String) —

    The format for the exported data. Valid values for ‘ExportFormat` are `DYNAMODB_JSON` or `ION`.

Returns:

#get_item(params = {}) ⇒ Types::GetItemOutput

The ‘GetItem` operation returns a set of attributes for the item with the given primary key. If there is no matching item, `GetItem` does not return any data and there will be no `Item` element in the response.

‘GetItem` provides an eventually consistent read by default. If your application requires a strongly consistent read, set `ConsistentRead` to `true`. Although a strongly consistent read might take more time than an eventually consistent read, it always returns the last updated value.

Examples:

Example: To read an item from a table


# This example retrieves an item from the Music table. The table has a partition key and a sort key (Artist and
# SongTitle), so you must specify both of these attributes.

resp = client.get_item({
  key: {
    "Artist" => "Acme Band", 
    "SongTitle" => "Happy Day", 
  }, 
  table_name: "Music", 
})

resp.to_h outputs the following:
{
  item: {
    "AlbumTitle" => "Songs About Life", 
    "Artist" => "Acme Band", 
    "SongTitle" => "Happy Day", 
  }, 
}

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :table_name (required, String) —

    The name of the table containing the requested item.

  • :key (required, Hash<String,Types::AttributeValue>) —

    A map of attribute names to ‘AttributeValue` objects, representing the primary key of the item to retrieve.

    For the primary key, you must provide all of the attributes. For example, with a simple primary key, you only need to provide a value for the partition key. For a composite primary key, you must provide values for both the partition key and the sort key.

  • :attributes_to_get (Array<String>) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘ProjectionExpression` instead. For more information, see [AttributesToGet] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.AttributesToGet.html

  • :consistent_read (Boolean) —

    Determines the read consistency model: If set to ‘true`, then the operation uses strongly consistent reads; otherwise, the operation uses eventually consistent reads.

  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

  • :projection_expression (String) —

    A string that identifies one or more attributes to retrieve from the table. These attributes can include scalars, sets, or elements of a JSON document. The attributes in the expression must be separated by commas.

    If no attribute names are specified, then all attributes are returned. If any of the requested attributes are not found, they do not appear in the result.

    For more information, see [Specifying Item Attributes] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Expressions.AccessingItemAttributes.html

  • :expression_attribute_names (Hash<String,String>) —

    One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in an expression. The following are some use cases for using ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word.

    • To create a placeholder for repeating occurrences of an attribute name in an expression.

    • To prevent special characters in an attribute name from being misinterpreted in an expression.

    Use the **#** character in an expression to dereference an attribute name. For example, consider the following attribute name:

    • ‘Percentile`

    ^

    The name of this attribute conflicts with a reserved word, so it cannot be used directly in an expression. (For the complete list of reserved words, see [Reserved Words] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*). To work around this, you could specify the following for ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • ‘“#P”:“Percentile”`

    ^

    You could then use this substitution in an expression, as in this example:

    • ‘#P = :val`

    ^

    <note markdown=“1”> Tokens that begin with the : character are *expression attribute values*, which are placeholders for the actual value at runtime.

    </note>

    For more information on expression attribute names, see [Specifying Item Attributes] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :client_token (String) —

    Providing a ‘ClientToken` makes the call to `ImportTableInput` idempotent, meaning that multiple identical calls have the same effect as one single call.

    A client token is valid for 8 hours after the first request that uses it is completed. After 8 hours, any request with the same client token is treated as a new request. Do not resubmit the same request with the same client token for more than 8 hours, or the result might not be idempotent.

    If you submit a request with the same client token but a change in other parameters within the 8-hour idempotency window, DynamoDB returns an ‘IdempotentParameterMismatch` exception.

    **A suitable default value is auto-generated.** You should normally not need to pass this option.**

  • :s3_bucket_source (required, Types::S3BucketSource) —

    The S3 bucket that provides the source for the import.

  • :input_format (required, String) —

    The format of the source data. Valid values for ‘ImportFormat` are `CSV`, `DYNAMODB_JSON` or `ION`.

  • :input_format_options (Types::InputFormatOptions) —

    Additional properties that specify how the input is formatted,

  • :input_compression_type (String) —

    Type of compression to be used on the input coming from the imported table.

  • :table_creation_parameters (required, Types::TableCreationParameters) —

    Parameters for the table to import the data into.

#list_global_tables(params = {}) ⇒ Types::ListGlobalTablesOutput

Lists all global tables that have a replica in the specified Region.

This operation only applies to [Version 2017.11.29 (Legacy)] of global tables. We recommend using [Version 2019.11.21 (Current)] when creating new global tables, as it provides greater flexibility, higher efficiency and consumes less write capacity than 2017.11.29 (Legacy). To determine which version you are using, see [Determining the version]. To update existing global tables from version 2017.11.29 (Legacy) to version 2019.11.21 (Current), see [ Updating global tables].

#put_item(params = {}) ⇒ Types::PutItemOutput

Creates a new item, or replaces an old item with a new item. If an item that has the same primary key as the new item already exists in the specified table, the new item completely replaces the existing item. You can perform a conditional put operation (add a new item if one with the specified primary key doesn’t exist), or replace an existing item if it has certain attribute values. You can return the item’s attribute values in the same operation, using the ‘ReturnValues` parameter.

When you add an item, the primary key attributes are the only required attributes.

Empty String and Binary attribute values are allowed. Attribute values of type String and Binary must have a length greater than zero if the attribute is used as a key attribute for a table or index. Set type attributes cannot be empty.

Invalid Requests with empty values will be rejected with a ‘ValidationException` exception.

<note markdown=“1”> To prevent a new item from replacing an existing item, use a conditional expression that contains the ‘attribute_not_exists` function with the name of the attribute being used as the partition key for the table. Since every record must contain that attribute, the `attribute_not_exists` function will only succeed if no matching item exists.

</note>

For more information about ‘PutItem`, see [Working with Items] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :table_name (required, String) —

    The name of the table to contain the item.

  • :item (required, Hash<String,Types::AttributeValue>) —

    A map of attribute name/value pairs, one for each attribute. Only the primary key attributes are required; you can optionally provide other attribute name-value pairs for the item.

    You must provide all of the attributes for the primary key. For example, with a simple primary key, you only need to provide a value for the partition key. For a composite primary key, you must provide both values for both the partition key and the sort key.

    If you specify any attributes that are part of an index key, then the data types for those attributes must match those of the schema in the table’s attribute definition.

    Empty String and Binary attribute values are allowed. Attribute values of type String and Binary must have a length greater than zero if the attribute is used as a key attribute for a table or index.

    For more information about primary keys, see [Primary Key] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    Each element in the ‘Item` map is an `AttributeValue` object.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/HowItWorks.CoreComponents.html#HowItWorks.CoreComponents.PrimaryKey

  • :expected (Hash<String,Types::ExpectedAttributeValue>) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘ConditionExpression` instead. For more information, see [Expected] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.Expected.html

  • :return_values (String) —

    Use ‘ReturnValues` if you want to get the item attributes as they appeared before they were updated with the `PutItem` request. For `PutItem`, the valid values are:

    • ‘NONE` - If `ReturnValues` is not specified, or if its value is `NONE`, then nothing is returned. (This setting is the default for `ReturnValues`.)

    • ‘ALL_OLD` - If `PutItem` overwrote an attribute name-value pair, then the content of the old item is returned.

    The values returned are strongly consistent.

    There is no additional cost associated with requesting a return value aside from the small network and processing overhead of receiving a larger response. No read capacity units are consumed.

    <note markdown=“1”> The ‘ReturnValues` parameter is used by several DynamoDB operations; however, `PutItem` does not recognize any values other than `NONE` or `ALL_OLD`.

    </note>
  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

  • :return_item_collection_metrics (String) —

    Determines whether item collection metrics are returned. If set to ‘SIZE`, the response includes statistics about item collections, if any, that were modified during the operation are returned in the response. If set to `NONE` (the default), no statistics are returned.

  • :conditional_operator (String) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘ConditionExpression` instead. For more information, see [ConditionalOperator] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.ConditionalOperator.html

  • :condition_expression (String) —

    A condition that must be satisfied in order for a conditional ‘PutItem` operation to succeed.

    An expression can contain any of the following:

    • Functions: ‘attribute_exists | attribute_not_exists | attribute_type | contains | begins_with | size`

      These function names are case-sensitive.

    • Comparison operators: ‘= | <> | < | > | <= | >= | BETWEEN | IN `

    • Logical operators: ‘AND | OR | NOT`

    For more information on condition expressions, see [Condition Expressions] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Expressions.SpecifyingConditions.html

  • :expression_attribute_names (Hash<String,String>) —

    One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in an expression. The following are some use cases for using ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word.

    • To create a placeholder for repeating occurrences of an attribute name in an expression.

    • To prevent special characters in an attribute name from being misinterpreted in an expression.

    Use the **#** character in an expression to dereference an attribute name. For example, consider the following attribute name:

    • ‘Percentile`

    ^

    The name of this attribute conflicts with a reserved word, so it cannot be used directly in an expression. (For the complete list of reserved words, see [Reserved Words] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*). To work around this, you could specify the following for ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • ‘“#P”:“Percentile”`

    ^

    You could then use this substitution in an expression, as in this example:

    • ‘#P = :val`

    ^

    <note markdown=“1”> Tokens that begin with the : character are *expression attribute values*, which are placeholders for the actual value at runtime.

    </note>

    For more information on expression attribute names, see [Specifying Item Attributes] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ReservedWords.html [2]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Expressions.AccessingItemAttributes.html

  • :expression_attribute_values (Hash<String,Types::AttributeValue>) —

    One or more values that can be substituted in an expression.

    Use the : (colon) character in an expression to dereference an attribute value. For example, suppose that you wanted to check whether the value of the ProductStatus attribute was one of the following:

    ‘Available | Backordered | Discontinued`

    You would first need to specify ‘ExpressionAttributeValues` as follows:

    ‘{ “:avail”:“S”:“Available”, “:back”:“S”:“Backordered”, “:disc”:“S”:“Discontinued” }`

    You could then use these values in an expression, such as this:

    ‘ProductStatus IN (:avail, :back, :disc)`

    For more information on expression attribute values, see [Condition Expressions] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Expressions.SpecifyingConditions.html

  • :return_values_on_condition_check_failure (String) —

    An optional parameter that returns the item attributes for a ‘PutItem` operation that failed a condition check.

    There is no additional cost associated with requesting a return value aside from the small network and processing overhead of receiving a larger response. No read capacity units are consumed.

Returns:

def put_item(params = {}, options = {})
  req = build_request(:put_item, params)
  req.send_request(options)
end

#query(params = {}) ⇒ Types::QueryOutput

You must provide the name of the partition key attribute and a single value for that attribute. ‘Query` returns all items with that partition key value. Optionally, you can provide a sort key attribute and use a comparison operator to refine the search results.

Use the ‘KeyConditionExpression` parameter to provide a specific value for the partition key. The `Query` operation will return all of the items from the table or index with that partition key value. You can optionally narrow the scope of the `Query` operation by specifying a sort key value and a comparison operator in `KeyConditionExpression`. To further refine the `Query` results, you can optionally provide a `FilterExpression`. A `FilterExpression` determines which items within the results should be returned to you. All of the other results are discarded.

A ‘Query` operation always returns a result set. If no matching items are found, the result set will be empty. Queries that do not return results consume the minimum number of read capacity units for that type of read operation.

<note markdown=“1”> DynamoDB calculates the number of read capacity units consumed based on item size, not on the amount of data that is returned to an application. The number of capacity units consumed will be the same whether you request all of the attributes (the default behavior) or just some of them (using a projection expression). The number will also be the same whether or not you use a ‘FilterExpression`.

</note>

‘Query` results are always sorted by the sort key value. If the data type of the sort key is Number, the results are returned in numeric order; otherwise, the results are returned in order of UTF-8 bytes. By default, the sort order is ascending. To reverse the order, set the `ScanIndexForward` parameter to false.

A single ‘Query` operation will read up to the maximum number of items set (if using the `Limit` parameter) or a maximum of 1 MB of data and then apply any filtering to the results using `FilterExpression`. If `LastEvaluatedKey` is present in the response, you will need to paginate the result set. For more information, see [Paginating the Results] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

‘FilterExpression` is applied after a `Query` finishes, but before the results are returned. A `FilterExpression` cannot contain partition key or sort key attributes. You need to specify those attributes in the `KeyConditionExpression`.

<note markdown=“1”> A ‘Query` operation can return an empty result set and a `LastEvaluatedKey` if all the items read for the page of results are filtered out.

</note>

You can query a table, a local secondary index, or a global secondary index. For a query on a table or on a local secondary index, you can set the ‘ConsistentRead` parameter to `true` and obtain a strongly consistent result. Global secondary indexes support eventually consistent reads only, so do not specify `ConsistentRead` when querying a global secondary index.

[1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Query.html#Query.Pagination

The returned response is a pageable response and is Enumerable. For details on usage see PageableResponse.

Examples:

Example: To query an item


# This example queries items in the Music table. The table has a partition key and sort key (Artist and SongTitle), but
# this query only specifies the partition key value. It returns song titles by the artist named "No One You Know".

resp = client.query({
  expression_attribute_values: {
    ":v1" => "No One You Know", 
  }, 
  key_condition_expression: "Artist = :v1", 
  projection_expression: "SongTitle", 
  table_name: "Music", 
})

resp.to_h outputs the following:
{
  consumed_capacity: {
  }, 
  count: 2, 
  items: [
    {
      "SongTitle" => "Call Me Today", 
    }, 
  ], 
  scanned_count: 2,

Parameters:

  • params (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    ({})

Options Hash (params):

  • :table_name (required, String) —

    The name of the table containing the requested items.

  • :index_name (String) —

    The name of an index to query. This index can be any local secondary index or global secondary index on the table. Note that if you use the ‘IndexName` parameter, you must also provide `TableName.`

  • :select (String) —

    The attributes to be returned in the result. You can retrieve all item attributes, specific item attributes, the count of matching items, or in the case of an index, some or all of the attributes projected into the index.

    • ‘ALL_ATTRIBUTES` - Returns all of the item attributes from the specified table or index. If you query a local secondary index, then for each matching item in the index, DynamoDB fetches the entire item from the parent table. If the index is configured to project all item attributes, then all of the data can be obtained from the local secondary index, and no fetching is required.

    • ‘ALL_PROJECTED_ATTRIBUTES` - Allowed only when querying an index. Retrieves all attributes that have been projected into the index. If the index is configured to project all attributes, this return value is equivalent to specifying `ALL_ATTRIBUTES`.

    • ‘COUNT` - Returns the number of matching items, rather than the matching items themselves. Note that this uses the same quantity of read capacity units as getting the items, and is subject to the same item size calculations.

    • ‘SPECIFIC_ATTRIBUTES` - Returns only the attributes listed in `ProjectionExpression`. This return value is equivalent to specifying `ProjectionExpression` without specifying any value for `Select`.

      If you query or scan a local secondary index and request only attributes that are projected into that index, the operation will read only the index and not the table. If any of the requested attributes are not projected into the local secondary index, DynamoDB fetches each of these attributes from the parent table. This extra fetching incurs additional throughput cost and latency.

      If you query or scan a global secondary index, you can only request attributes that are projected into the index. Global secondary index queries cannot fetch attributes from the parent table.

    If neither ‘Select` nor `ProjectionExpression` are specified, DynamoDB defaults to `ALL_ATTRIBUTES` when accessing a table, and `ALL_PROJECTED_ATTRIBUTES` when accessing an index. You cannot use both `Select` and `ProjectionExpression` together in a single request, unless the value for `Select` is `SPECIFIC_ATTRIBUTES`. (This usage is equivalent to specifying `ProjectionExpression` without any value for `Select`.)

    <note markdown=“1”> If you use the ‘ProjectionExpression` parameter, then the value for `Select` can only be `SPECIFIC_ATTRIBUTES`. Any other value for `Select` will return an error.

    </note>
  • :attributes_to_get (Array<String>) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘ProjectionExpression` instead. For more information, see [AttributesToGet] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.AttributesToGet.html

  • :limit (Integer) —

    The maximum number of items to evaluate (not necessarily the number of matching items). If DynamoDB processes the number of items up to the limit while processing the results, it stops the operation and returns the matching values up to that point, and a key in ‘LastEvaluatedKey` to apply in a subsequent operation, so that you can pick up where you left off. Also, if the processed dataset size exceeds 1 MB before DynamoDB reaches this limit, it stops the operation and returns the matching values up to the limit, and a key in `LastEvaluatedKey` to apply in a subsequent operation to continue the operation. For more information, see [Query and Scan] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/QueryAndScan.html

  • :consistent_read (Boolean) —

    Determines the read consistency model: If set to ‘true`, then the operation uses strongly consistent reads; otherwise, the operation uses eventually consistent reads.

    Strongly consistent reads are not supported on global secondary indexes. If you query a global secondary index with ‘ConsistentRead` set to `true`, you will receive a `ValidationException`.

  • :key_conditions (Hash<String,Types::Condition>) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘KeyConditionExpression` instead. For more information, see [KeyConditions] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.KeyConditions.html

  • :query_filter (Hash<String,Types::Condition>) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘FilterExpression` instead. For more information, see [QueryFilter] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.QueryFilter.html

  • :conditional_operator (String) —

    This is a legacy parameter. Use ‘FilterExpression` instead. For more information, see [ConditionalOperator] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/LegacyConditionalParameters.ConditionalOperator.html

  • :scan_index_forward (Boolean) —

    Specifies the order for index traversal: If ‘true` (default), the traversal is performed in ascending order; if `false`, the traversal is performed in descending order.

    Items with the same partition key value are stored in sorted order by sort key. If the sort key data type is Number, the results are stored in numeric order. For type String, the results are stored in order of UTF-8 bytes. For type Binary, DynamoDB treats each byte of the binary data as unsigned.

    If ‘ScanIndexForward` is `true`, DynamoDB returns the results in the order in which they are stored (by sort key value). This is the default behavior. If `ScanIndexForward` is `false`, DynamoDB reads the results in reverse order by sort key value, and then returns the results to the client.

  • :exclusive_start_key (Hash<String,Types::AttributeValue>) —

    The primary key of the first item that this operation will evaluate. Use the value that was returned for ‘LastEvaluatedKey` in the previous operation.

    The data type for ‘ExclusiveStartKey` must be String, Number, or Binary. No set data types are allowed.

  • :return_consumed_capacity (String) —

    Determines the level of detail about either provisioned or on-demand throughput consumption that is returned in the response:

    • ‘INDEXES` - The response includes the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation, together with `ConsumedCapacity` for each table and secondary index that was accessed.

      Note that some operations, such as ‘GetItem` and `BatchGetItem`, do not access any indexes at all. In these cases, specifying `INDEXES` will only return `ConsumedCapacity` information for table(s).

    • ‘TOTAL` - The response includes only the aggregate `ConsumedCapacity` for the operation.

    • ‘NONE` - No `ConsumedCapacity` details are included in the response.

  • :projection_expression (String) —

    A string that identifies one or more attributes to retrieve from the table. These attributes can include scalars, sets, or elements of a JSON document. The attributes in the expression must be separated by commas.

    If no attribute names are specified, then all attributes will be returned. If any of the requested attributes are not found, they will not appear in the result.

    For more information, see [Accessing Item Attributes] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Expressions.AccessingItemAttributes.html

  • :filter_expression (String) —

    A string that contains conditions that DynamoDB applies after the ‘Query` operation, but before the data is returned to you. Items that do not satisfy the `FilterExpression` criteria are not returned.

    A ‘FilterExpression` does not allow key attributes. You cannot define a filter expression based on a partition key or a sort key.

    <note markdown=“1”> A ‘FilterExpression` is applied after the items have already been read; the process of filtering does not consume any additional read capacity units.

    </note>

    For more information, see [Filter Expressions] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/QueryAndScan.html#Query.FilterExpression

  • :key_condition_expression (String) —

    The condition that specifies the key values for items to be retrieved by the ‘Query` action.

    The condition must perform an equality test on a single partition key value.

    The condition can optionally perform one of several comparison tests on a single sort key value. This allows ‘Query` to retrieve one item with a given partition key value and sort key value, or several items that have the same partition key value but different sort key values.

    The partition key equality test is required, and must be specified in the following format:

    ‘partitionKeyName` *=* `:partitionkeyval`

    If you also want to provide a condition for the sort key, it must be combined using ‘AND` with the condition for the sort key. Following is an example, using the **=** comparison operator for the sort key:

    ‘partitionKeyName` `=` `:partitionkeyval` `AND` `sortKeyName` `=` `:sortkeyval`

    Valid comparisons for the sort key condition are as follows:

    • ‘sortKeyName` `=` `:sortkeyval` - true if the sort key value is equal to `:sortkeyval`.

    • ‘sortKeyName` `<` `:sortkeyval` - true if the sort key value is less than `:sortkeyval`.

    • ‘sortKeyName` `<=` `:sortkeyval` - true if the sort key value is less than or equal to `:sortkeyval`.

    • ‘sortKeyName` `>` `:sortkeyval` - true if the sort key value is greater than `:sortkeyval`.

    • ‘sortKeyName` `>= ` `:sortkeyval` - true if the sort key value is greater than or equal to `:sortkeyval`.

    • ‘sortKeyName` `BETWEEN` `:sortkeyval1` `AND` `:sortkeyval2` - true if the sort key value is greater than or equal to `:sortkeyval1`, and less than or equal to `:sortkeyval2`.

    • ‘begins_with (` `sortKeyName`, `:sortkeyval` `)` - true if the sort key value begins with a particular operand. (You cannot use this function with a sort key that is of type Number.) Note that the function name `begins_with` is case-sensitive.

    Use the ‘ExpressionAttributeValues` parameter to replace tokens such as `:partitionval` and `:sortval` with actual values at runtime.

    You can optionally use the ‘ExpressionAttributeNames` parameter to replace the names of the partition key and sort key with placeholder tokens. This option might be necessary if an attribute name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word. For example, the following `KeyConditionExpression` parameter causes an error because Size is a reserved word:

    • ‘Size = :myval`

    ^

    To work around this, define a placeholder (such a ‘#S`) to represent the attribute name Size. `KeyConditionExpression` then is as follows:

    • ‘#S = :myval`

    ^

    For a list of reserved words, see [Reserved Words] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    For more information on ‘ExpressionAttributeNames` and `ExpressionAttributeValues`, see [Using Placeholders for Attribute Names and Values] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

    [1]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ReservedWords.html [2]: docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ExpressionPlaceholders.html

  • :expression_attribute_names (Hash<String,String>) —

    One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in an expression. The following are some use cases for using ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word.

    • To create a placeholder for repeating occurrences of an attribute name in an expression.

    • To prevent special characters in an attribute name from being misinterpreted in an expression.

    Use the **#** character in an expression to dereference an attribute name. For example, consider the following attribute name:

    • ‘Percentile`

    ^

    The name of this attribute conflicts with a reserved word, so it cannot be used directly in an expression. (For the complete list of reserved words, see [Reserved Words] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*). To work around this, you could specify the following for ‘ExpressionAttributeNames`:

    • ‘“#P”:“Percentile”`

    ^

    You could then use this substitution in an expression, as in this example:

    • ‘#P = :val`

    ^

    <note markdown=“1”> Tokens that begin with the : character are *expression attribute values*, which are placeholders for the actual value at runtime.

  • :expression_attribute_values (Hash<String,Types::AttributeValue>) —

    One or more values that can be substituted in an expression.

    Use the : (colon) character in an expression to dereference an attribute value. For example, suppose that you wanted to check whether the value of the ProductStatus attribute was one of the following:

    ‘Available | Backordered | Discontinued`

    You would first need to specify ‘ExpressionAttributeValues` as follows:

    ‘{ “:avail”:“S”:“Available”, “:back”:“S”:“Backordered”, “:disc”:“S”:“Discontinued” }`

    You could then use these values in an expression, such as this:

    ‘ProductStatus IN (:avail, :back, :disc)`

    For more information on expression attribute values, see [Specifying Conditions] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

#restore_table_to_point_in_time(params = {}) ⇒ Types::RestoreTableToPointInTimeOutput

Restores the specified table to the specified point in time within ‘EarliestRestorableDateTime` and `LatestRestorableDateTime`. You can restore your table to any point in time during the last 35 days. Any number of users can execute up to 4 concurrent restores (any type of restore) in a given account.

When you restore using point in time recovery, DynamoDB restores your table data to the state based on the selected date and time (day:hour:minute:second) to a new table.

Along with data, the following are also included on the new restored table using point in time recovery:

  • Global secondary indexes (GSIs)

  • Local secondary indexes (LSIs)

  • Provisioned read and write capacity

  • Encryption settings

    All these settings come from the current settings of the source table at the time of restore.

You must manually set up the following on the restored table:

  • Auto scaling policies

  • IAM policies

  • Amazon CloudWatch metrics and alarms

  • Tags

  • Stream settings

  • Time to Live (TTL) settings

  • Point in time recovery settings

#scan(params = {}) ⇒ Types::ScanOutput

The ‘Scan` operation returns one or more items and item attributes by accessing every item in a table or a secondary index. To have DynamoDB return fewer items, you can provide a `FilterExpression` operation.

If the total size of scanned items exceeds the maximum dataset size limit of 1 MB, the scan completes and results are returned to the user. The ‘LastEvaluatedKey` value is also returned and the requestor can use the `LastEvaluatedKey` to continue the scan in a subsequent operation. Each scan response also includes number of items that were scanned (ScannedCount) as part of the request. If using a `FilterExpression`, a scan result can result in no items meeting the criteria and the `Count` will result in zero. If you did not use a `FilterExpression` in the scan request, then `Count` is the same as `ScannedCount`.

<note markdown=“1”> ‘Count` and `ScannedCount` only return the count of items specific to a single scan request and, unless the table is less than 1MB, do not represent the total number of items in the table.

</note>

A single ‘Scan` operation first reads up to the maximum number of items set (if using the `Limit` parameter) or a maximum of 1 MB of data and then applies any filtering to the results if a `FilterExpression` is provided. If `LastEvaluatedKey` is present in the response, pagination is required to complete the full table scan. For more information, see [Paginating the Results] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

‘Scan` operations proceed sequentially; however, for faster performance on a large table or secondary index, applications can request a parallel `Scan` operation by providing the `Segment` and `TotalSegments` parameters. For more information, see [Parallel Scan] in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

By default, a ‘Scan` uses eventually consistent reads when accessing the items in a table. Therefore, the results from an eventually consistent `Scan` may not include the latest item changes at the time the scan iterates through each item in the table. If you require a strongly consistent read of each item as the scan iterates through the items in the table, you can set the `ConsistentRead` parameter to true. Strong consistency only relates to the consistency of the read at the item level.

<note markdown=“1”> DynamoDB does not provide snapshot isolation for a scan operation when the ‘ConsistentRead` parameter is set to true. Thus, a DynamoDB scan operation does not guarantee that all reads in a scan see a consistent snapshot of the table when the scan operation was requested.

</note>

The returned response is a pageable response and is Enumerable. For details on usage see PageableResponse.
