Amazon DynamoDB
**Overview**
This is the Amazon DynamoDB API Reference. This guide provides descriptions
and samples of the low-level DynamoDB API. For information about DynamoDB
application development, see the [Amazon DynamoDB Developer
Guide](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/).
Instead of making the requests to the low-level DynamoDB API directly from
your application, we recommend that you use the AWS Software Development
Kits (SDKs). The easy-to-use libraries in the AWS SDKs make it unnecessary
to call the low-level DynamoDB API directly from your application. The
libraries take care of request authentication, serialization, and
connection management. For more information, see [Using the AWS SDKs with
DynamoDB](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/UsingAWSSDK.html)
in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.
If you decide to code against the low-level DynamoDB API directly, you will
need to write the necessary code to authenticate your requests. For more
information on signing your requests, see [Using the DynamoDB
API](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/API.html)
in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.
The following are short descriptions of each low-level API action,
organized by function.
**Managing Tables**
- *CreateTable* - Creates a table with user-specified provisioned
throughput settings. You must designate one attribute as the hash primary
key for the table; you can optionally designate a second attribute as the
range primary key. DynamoDB creates indexes on these key attributes for
fast data access. Optionally, you can create one or more secondary indexes,
which provide fast data access using non-key attributes.
- *DescribeTable* - Returns metadata for a table, such as table
size, status, and index information.
- *UpdateTable* - Modifies the provisioned throughput settings for
a table. Optionally, you can modify the provisioned throughput settings for
global secondary indexes on the table.
- *ListTables* - Returns a list of all tables associated with the
current AWS account and endpoint.
- *DeleteTable* - Deletes a table and all of its indexes.
For conceptual information about managing tables, see [Working
with
Tables](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/WorkingWithTables.html)
in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.
**Reading Data**
- *GetItem* - Returns a set of attributes for the item that has a
given primary key. By default, *GetItem* performs an eventually consistent
read; however, applications can request a strongly consistent read instead.
- *BatchGetItem* - Performs multiple *GetItem* requests for data
items using their primary keys, from one table or multiple tables. The
response from *BatchGetItem* has a size limit of 16 MB and returns a
maximum of 100 items. Both eventually consistent and strongly consistent
reads can be used.
- *Query* - Returns one or more items from a table or a secondary
index. You must provide a specific hash key value. You can narrow the scope
of the query using comparison operators against a range key value, or on
the index key. *Query* supports either eventual or strong consistency. A
single response has a size limit of 1 MB.
- *Scan* - Reads every item in a table; the result set is
eventually consistent. You can limit the number of items returned by
filtering the data attributes, using conditional expressions. *Scan* can be
used to enable ad-hoc querying of a table against non-key attributes;
however, since this is a full table scan without using an index, *Scan*
should not be used for any application query use case that requires
predictable performance.
For conceptual information about reading data, see [Working
with
Items](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/WorkingWithItems.html)
and [Query and Scan
Operations](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/QueryAndScan.html)
in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.
**Modifying Data**
- *PutItem* - Creates a new item, or replaces an existing item with
a new item (including all the attributes). By default, if an item in the
table already exists with the same primary key, the new item completely
replaces the existing item. You can use conditional operators to replace an
item only if its attribute values match certain conditions, or to insert a
new item only if that item doesn't already exist.
- *UpdateItem* - Modifies the attributes of an existing item. You
can also use conditional operators to perform an update only if the item's
attribute values match certain conditions.
- *DeleteItem* - Deletes an item in a table by primary key. You
can use conditional operators to perform a delete an item only if the
item's attribute values match certain conditions.
- *BatchWriteItem* - Performs multiple *PutItem* and *DeleteItem*
requests across multiple tables in a single request. A failure of any
request(s) in the batch will not cause the entire *BatchWriteItem*
operation to fail. Supports batches of up to 25 items to put or delete,
with a maximum total request size of 16 MB.
For conceptual information about modifying data, see [Working
with
Items](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/WorkingWithItems.html)
and [Query and Scan
Operations](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/QueryAndScan.html)
in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.
"""
@doc """
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* will return a partial result if the
response size limit is exceeded, the table's provisioned throughput is
exceeded, 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* will return 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 data set.
If *none* of the items can be processed due to insufficient provisioned
throughput on all of the tables in the request, then *BatchGetItem* will
return 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](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ErrorHandling.html#BatchOperations)
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* retrieves items in
parallel.
When designing your application, keep in mind that DynamoDB does not return
attributes in any particular order. To help parse the response by item,
include the primary key values for the items in your request in the
*AttributesToGet* 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 [Capacity Units
Calculations](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/WorkingWithTables.html#CapacityUnitCalculations)
in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.

@doc """
The *BatchWriteItem* operation puts or deletes multiple items in one or
more tables. A single call to *BatchWriteItem* can write up to 16 MB of
data, which can comprise as many as 25 put or delete requests. Individual
items to be written can be as large as 400 KB.
*BatchWriteItem* cannot update items. To update items, use the
*UpdateItem* API.
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.
Note that if *none* of the items can be processed due to insufficient
provisioned throughput on all of the tables in the request, then
*BatchWriteItem* will return 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](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/ErrorHandling.html#BatchOperations)
in the *Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide*.
With *BatchWriteItem*, you can efficiently write or delete
large amounts of data, such as from Amazon Elastic MapReduce (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* provides an alternative where the API
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.
- 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.

The *CreateTable* operation adds a new table to your account. In an AWS
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* API to check the table status.

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.
"""
def delete_item(client, input, options \\ []) do
request(client, "DeleteItem", input, options)

@doc """
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.
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.
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* API to check the status of the table.

Returns information about the table, including the current status of the

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.

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.
*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.

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.
In addition to putting an item, you can also return the item's attribute
values in the same operation, using the *ReturnValues* parameter.
When you add an item, the primary key attribute(s) are the only required
attributes. Attribute values cannot be null. String and Binary type
attributes must have lengths greater than zero. Set type attributes cannot
be empty. Requests with empty values will be rejected with a
*ValidationException* exception.
You can request that *PutItem* return either a copy of the original item
(before the update) or a copy of the updated item (after the update). For
more information, see the *ReturnValues* description below.
To prevent a new item from replacing an existing item, use a
conditional put operation with *ComparisonOperator* set to `NULL` for the
primary key attribute, or attributes.

A *Query* operation uses the primary key of a table or a secondary index to
directly access items from that table or index.
Use the *KeyConditionExpression* parameter to provide a specific hash key
value. The *Query* operation will return all of the items from the table or
index with that hash key value. You can optionally narrow the scope of the
*Query* operation by specifying a range key value and a comparison operator
in *KeyConditionExpression*. You can use the *ScanIndexForward* parameter
to get results in forward or reverse order, by range key or by index key.
Queries that do not return results consume the minimum number of read
capacity units for that type of read operation.
If the total number of items meeting the query criteria exceeds the result
set size limit of 1 MB, the query stops and results are returned to the
user with the *LastEvaluatedKey* element to continue the query in a
subsequent operation. Unlike a *Scan* operation, a *Query* operation never
returns both an empty result set and a *LastEvaluatedKey* value.
*LastEvaluatedKey* is only provided if the results exceed 1 MB, or if you
have used the *Limit* parameter.
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.

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 *ScanFilter* operation.
If the total number of scanned items exceeds the maximum data set size
limit of 1 MB, the scan stops and results are returned to the user as a
*LastEvaluatedKey* value to continue the scan in a subsequent operation.
The results also include the number of items exceeding the limit. A scan
can result in no table data meeting the filter criteria.
By default, *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](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/QueryAndScan.html#QueryAndScanParallelScan)
