Extends the existing DynamoDB instance with the following stream methods. All methods encode/decode DynamoDB types (such as S
, N
, and B
) automatically.
var aws = require("aws-sdk")
var dynamoStreams = require("dynamo-streams")
var db = new aws.DynamoDB
// create each stream as a function...
var read = dynamoStreams.createScanStream(db, {TableName: "stooges"})
// ... or as a method.
var dbStreams = dynamoStreams(db)
var read = dbStreams.createScanStream({TableName: "stooges"})
Returns a readable stream of scanned rows. params
is passed through to the underlying db.scan
operation.
var read = dbStreams.createScanStream({TableName: "stooges"})
read.on("data", console.log)
// {id: 1, name: "Moe"}
// {id: 2, name: "Shemp"}
// {id: 3, name: "Larry"}
Same as createScanStream
, but for queries.
Returns a writeable stream of rows to put. params
must include a TableName
property specifying the DynamoDB table. Internally, operations are chunked using db.BatchWriteItem
.
var put = dbStreams.createPutStream({TableName: "stooges"})
put.write({id: 4, name: "Curly"})
put.end()
put.on("finish", function() {
var read = dbStreams.createScanStream({TableName: "stooges"})
read.on("data", console.log)
// {id: 1, name: "Moe"}
// {id: 2, name: "Shemp"}
// {id: 3, name: "Larry"}
// {id: 4, name: "Curly"}
}
Returns a writeable stream of rows to delete. params
must include a TableName
property specifying the DynamoDB table. Internally, operations are chunked using db.BatchWriteItem
. All incoming objects are trimmed to keys of hash/range values.
var put = dbStreams.createDeleteStream({TableName: "stooges"})
put.write({id: 2})
put.end()
put.on("finish", function() {
var read = dbStreams.createScanStream({TableName: "stooges"})
read.on("data", console.log)
// {id: 1, name: "Moe"}
// {id: 3, name: "Larry"}
}
Returns a writeable stream representing the state of the database for a given scan. Internally, params
is passed to createScanStream
, to return a readable stream. This (remote) readable stream is diffed against the items piped to the (local) stream, and the db.BatchWriteItem
method is then used to delete items missing from the local stream and put items missing from the remote stream. In other words, the inbound items are compared with the existing items, and the minimum number of operations are then performed to update the database.
var put = dbStreams.createDeleteStream({TableName: "stooges"})
sync.write({id: 1, name: "Moe"})
sync.write({id: 3, name: "Larry"})
sync.write({id: 4, name: "Curly"})
sync.end()
put.on("finish", function() {
var read = dbStreams.createScanStream({TableName: "stooges"})
read.on("data", console.log)
// {id: 1, name: "Moe"}
// {id: 3, name: "Larry"}
// {id: 4, name: "Curly"}
}
Returns the same as the createScanSyncStream
, but for a query instead of a scan.
