01-create-table.js - Amazon DynamoDB

01-create-table.js

The 01-create-table.js program creates a table (TryDaxTable). The remaining Node.js programs in this section depend on this table.

const AmazonDaxClient = require("amazon-dax-client"); var AWS = require("aws-sdk"); var region = "us-west-2"; AWS.config.update({ region: region, }); var dynamodb = new AWS.DynamoDB(); //low-level client var tableName = "TryDaxTable"; var params = { TableName: tableName, KeySchema: [ { AttributeName: "pk", KeyType: "HASH" }, //Partition key { AttributeName: "sk", KeyType: "RANGE" }, //Sort key ], AttributeDefinitions: [ { AttributeName: "pk", AttributeType: "N" }, { AttributeName: "sk", AttributeType: "N" }, ], ProvisionedThroughput: { ReadCapacityUnits: 10, WriteCapacityUnits: 10, }, }; dynamodb.createTable(params, function (err, data) { if (err) { console.error( "Unable to create table. Error JSON:", JSON.stringify(err, null, 2) ); } else { console.log( "Created table. Table description JSON:", JSON.stringify(data, null, 2) ); } });
