Types

type DynamoDB

type DynamoDB struct {
	// define the AWS region that dynamodb is serviced from
	AwsRegion awsregion.AWSRegion

	// custom http2 client options
	HttpOptions *awshttp2.HttpClientSettings

	// define the Dax Endpoint (required if using DAX)
	DaxEndpoint string

	// if dax is enabled, skip dax will skip dax and route direct to DynamoDB
	// if dax is not enabled, skip dax true or not will always route to DynamoDB
	SkipDax bool

	// operating table
	TableName string
	PKName    string
	SKName    string

	// last execute param string
	LastExecuteParamsPayload string
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

DynamoDB struct encapsulates the AWS DynamoDB access functionality

Notes:

  1. to use dax, must be within vpc with dax cluster subnet pointing to private ip subnet of the vpc
  2. dax is not accessible outside of vpc
  3. on ec2 or container within vpc, also need aws credential via aws cli too = aws configure

func (*DynamoDB) BatchGetItems

BatchGetItems accepts a slice of search keys (of DynamoDBSearchKeys struct object), optionally define attribute projections, and return found result items;

important

if dynamodb table is defined as PK and SK together, then to search, MUST use PK and SK together or error will trigger

parameters:
