Java enhanced dynamodb client test

Architecture

This project contains multiple lambda functions that each execute an other operation on DynamoDB.
They all use the new DynamoDB Enhanced Client to execute the operations.
The project was built to explore the new DynamoDB Enhanced Client.

Operations:

• putItem: create a new item
• query by partitionKey and a condition on the sort key
• query on a GSI
• full table scan
• deleteItem

Build and deploy

Prerequisits:

• Gradle or gradle wraper

• Java11

• edit the stack: stackery edit

• deploy from local: stackery deploy -e dev --strategy local --aws-profile default

• deploy for the first time: stackery deploy

• delete the stack: aws cloudformation delete-stack --stack-name {{name-of-your-stack}}

OUTPUTS: The stack will output the baseURL for the application on which you can execute requests.

Deploying in a region other than us-east-1: in template.yml uncomment the env variables for REGION and set it your region.

Playing with the application

Once deployed copy the ApiGateway url and start sending requests to it. You can post a basic "memoryCard" that looks like this:

{
  "author": "nick",
  "memoryText": "Use the new DynamoDB enhanced client",
  "category": "cloud"
}

This will then be saved in the database.
You can create more memoryCards.
Or you can delete, getOne, getAll.
These endpoints will all trigger different operations on DynamoDB using the enhanced-client for DynamoDB.

Intellij Http If you are using IntelliJ you can use the Http Requests in the http folder to trigger the endpoints.

• Update the URL in http-client.env.json to your own URL. You can get this from the outputs of the stack.
• run all requests in api.http using the test environment

Stackery
