Description

This project uses the Spring Boot Framework to perform CRUD operations over Tasks records that store Quartz Jobs on AWS Postgres. The idea is to use TDD from the beginning of the project and use Testcontainers to run the application and the database in a Docker container.

Running the application using Docker Compose

Execute the following command from the root of the project:

docker compose up --build

Adding a Device item into DynamoDB

Execute the following command from the root of the project:

aws dynamodb put-item                     \
    --table-name Devices                  \
    --endpoint-url http://localhost:8000  \
    --item file://utils/dynamodb/items/device-item.json

Getting a Device item from DynamoDB

Execute the following command:

aws dynamodb scan         \
  --table-name Devices    \
  --endpoint-url http://localhost:8000
