How to get first 6 items in controller?

[qyqyqy03]

In my Controller
I use
$items = Item::all();

to get all items

but I want to get only the first 6 items, but i cant use
$items = Item::take(6)->get();

This is not supported yet. It will need to rely on the Range key to have an ordered result and then we set the limit to 6.

How to set the limit? Where is Range key?

you'll need to always check the README. If the methods are not there then they are not supported

If I get All the rows from dynamodb, it will be very slow
Everytime I run all(), it spends about 5-6s
and I have only about 20 rows

@qyqyqy03 do you think using chunk would help? it's no guarantee that they will be the first 6 items though - I think the order will not always be the same.

Sorry I missed the comment.

why issue is closed? no one proposed the solution.... i'm new to dynamodb and reading its documentation regarding Query & Scan ... but its not helping... how can we apply these within laravel ?

I suggested to use chunk if it would help, depending on your use case. In short, this is not implemented yet:

User::take(6)->get()
