How to use

e.g.

cars table.

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
1	1	Accord	0.19760508e8	0
2	2	CROWN	0.19550101e8	0
3	3	Model S	0.20120601e8	0
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

Scan

Scan returns items in random order.

scan = Dynamodb::Api.scan
scan.from('cars')
items = scan.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
1	1	Accord	0.19760508e8	0
2	2	CROWN	0.19550101e8	0
3	3	Model S	0.20120601e8	0
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

Filter

scan = Dynamodb::Api.scan
scan.from('cars').
  filter('model = :model', ':model': 'S2000')
items = scan.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

Limit

scan = Dynamodb::Api.scan
scan.from('cars').
  limit(1)
items = scan.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
1	1	Accord	0.19760508e8	0

Next(Paging)

scan = Dynamodb::Api.scan
scan.from('cars').
  limit(1)
_items = scan.all.items
items = scan.next.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
2	2	CROWN	0.19550101e8	0

Query

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdkforruby/api/Aws/DynamoDB/Client.html#query-instance_method

Partition(Hash) key

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where(['maker_id', '=', 1])
items = query.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1
1	1	Accord	0.19760508e8	0

Partition key and Sort(Range) key

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where([['maker_id', '=', 1], ['release_date', '>=', 19_980_101]])
items = query.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

Sorting

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where(['maker_id', '=', 1]).
  order('asc') # default: 'desc'
items = query.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
1	1	Accord	0.19760508e8	0
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

Filter

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where(['maker_id', '=', 1]).
  filter('model = :model', ':model': 'S2000')
items = query.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

Limit

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where(['maker_id', '=', 1]).
  order('asc'). # default: 'desc'
  limit(1)
items = query.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
1	1	Accord	0.19760508e8	0

Next(Paging)

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where(['maker_id', '=', 1]).
  order('asc'). # default: 'desc'
  limit(1)
_items = query.all.items
items = query.next.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

Expression Attribute Names

Words reserved in DynamoDB can not be used without special processing. In dynamodb-api , you can omit the special processing by putting # at the beginning of the word. Refer to the list of reserved words from here.

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where(['maker_id', '=', 1]).
  filter('#status = :status', ':status': 1)
items = query.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)	status
4	1	S2000	0.19980101e8	1

If you don't add # to a reserved word, the following error will occur:

Aws::DynamoDB::Errors::ValidationException:
  Invalid FilterExpression: Attribute name is a reserved keyword; reserved keyword: [reserved word]

Insert

item = { id: '5', maker_id: 1, maker: 'Honda', model: 'NSX', release_date: 19900914 }
Dynamodb::Api.insert('cars', item)

Update

key = { id: '5' }
value = { new_col: 'new' }
Dynamodb::Api.update('cars', key, value)

Delete

key = { id: '5' }
Dynamodb::Api.delete('cars', key)

Remove attributes

key = { id: '3' }
attributes = ['status']
Dynamodb::Api.remove_attributes('cars', key, attributes)

query = Dynamodb::Api.query
query.from('cars').index('index_maker_id_release_date').
  where(['maker_id', '=', 3])
items = query.all.items

id	maker_id(Partition key)	model	release_date(Sort key)
3	3	Model S	0.20120601e8

Other API operations

client returns the <Aws::DynamoDB::Client> . So, you can use all API operations.

client = Dynamodb::Api::Adapter.client # <Aws::DynamoDB::Client>

# e.g.
client.create_backup(
  table_name: 'TableName', # required
  backup_name: 'BackupName', # required
)

Development

• Run docker-compose up to run the dynamodb_local.
• Run docker-compose run ruby bundle exec rake spec to run the tests. Or run docker-compose run ruby bundle exec appraisal aws-sdk-* rake spec to run the tests. Replase * with aws sdk major version.
• You can also run docker-compose run ruby bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run docker-compose run ruby bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run docker-compose run ruby bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
