sls-dynamodb-client

A module to make dynamodb client creation environment agnostic.

• Use the same DynamoDB client code for local development and on AWS Lambda.
• Pass options to DynamoDB or DocumentClient
• Use a custom endpoint for dynamodb-local

Dependencies

• serverless-offline - Required to detect offline/online status
• serverless-dynamodb-local - Required to run dynamodb locally during development

Installation

npm install --save sls-dynamodb-client

Usage

const ddb = require('sls-dynamodb-client')();

// Get a DocumentClient - AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient()
let docClient = ddb.getDocumentClient();

// Get the low level client - AWS.DynamoDB()
let dynamodb = ddb.getClient();

Custom local endpoint

const ddb = require('sls-dynamodb-client')("customregion", "http://customhost:customport/");

// DocumentClient requests will go to "customhost:customport"
let docClient = ddb.getDocumentClient();

// DynamoDB client requests will go to "customhost:customport"
let dynamodb = ddb.getClient();

Passing Options

const ddb = require('sls-dynamodb-client')("customregion", "http://customhost:customport/");
let options = {"convertEmptyValues": true};
let docClient = ddb.getDocumentClient(options);
