Example 1: To query a table
The following
query
example queries items in theMusicCollection
table. The table has a hash-and-range primary key (Artist
andSongTitle
), but this query only specifies the hash key value. It returns song titles by the artist named "No One You Know".aws dynamodb query \ --table-name
MusicCollection
\ --projection-expression"SongTitle"
\ --key-condition-expression"Artist = :v1"
\ --expression-attribute-valuesfile://expression-attributes.json
\ --return-consumed-capacityTOTAL
Contents of
expression-attributes.json
:{ ":v1": {"S": "No One You Know"} }
Output:
{ "Items": [ { "SongTitle": { "S": "Call Me Today" }, "SongTitle": { "S": "Scared of My Shadow" } } ], "Count": 2, "ScannedCount": 2, "ConsumedCapacity": { "TableName": "MusicCollection", "CapacityUnits": 0.5 } }
For more information, see Working with Queries in DynamoDB in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
Example 2: To query a table using strongly consistent reads and traverse the index in descending order
The following example performs the same query as the first example, but returns results in reverse order and uses strongly consistent reads.
aws dynamodb query \ --table-name
MusicCollection
\ --projection-expression"SongTitle"
\ --key-condition-expression"Artist = :v1"
\ --expression-attribute-valuesfile://expression-attributes.json
\ --consistent-read \ --no-scan-index-forward \ --return-consumed-capacityTOTAL
Contents of
expression-attributes.json
:{ ":v1": {"S": "No One You Know"} }
Output:
{ "Items": [ { "SongTitle": { "S": "Scared of My Shadow" } }, { "SongTitle": { "S": "Call Me Today" } } ], "Count": 2, "ScannedCount": 2, "ConsumedCapacity": { "TableName": "MusicCollection", "CapacityUnits": 1.0 } }
For more information, see Working with Queries in DynamoDB in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
Example 3: To filter out specific results
The following example queries the
MusicCollection
but excludes results with specific values in theAlbumTitle
attribute. Note that this does not affect theScannedCount
orConsumedCapacity
, because the filter is applied after the items have been read.aws dynamodb query \ --table-name
MusicCollection
\ --key-condition-expression"#n1 = :v1"
\ --filter-expression"NOT (#n2 IN (:v2, :v3))"
\ --expression-attribute-namesfile://names.json
\ --expression-attribute-valuesfile://values.json
\ --return-consumed-capacityTOTAL
Contents of
values.json
:{ ":v1": {"S": "No One You Know"}, ":v2": {"S": "Blue Sky Blues"}, ":v3": {"S": "Greatest Hits"} }
Contents of
names.json
:{ "#n1": "Artist", "#n2": "AlbumTitle" }
Output:
{ "Items": [ { "AlbumTitle": { "S": "Somewhat Famous" }, "Artist": { "S": "No One You Know" }, "SongTitle": { "S": "Call Me Today" } } ], "Count": 1, "ScannedCount": 2, "ConsumedCapacity": { "TableName": "MusicCollection", "CapacityUnits": 0.5 } }
For more information, see Working with Queries in DynamoDB in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
Example 4: To retrieve only an item count
The following example retrieves a count of items matching the query, but does not retrieve any of the items themselves.
aws dynamodb query \ --table-name
MusicCollection
\ --selectCOUNT
\ --key-condition-expression"Artist = :v1"
\ --expression-attribute-valuesfile://expression-attributes.json
Contents of
expression-attributes.json
:{ ":v1": {"S": "No One You Know"} }
Output:
{ "Count": 2, "ScannedCount": 2, "ConsumedCapacity": null }
For more information, see Working with Queries in DynamoDB in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
Example 5: To query an index
The following example queries the local secondary index
AlbumTitleIndex
. The query returns all attributes from the base table that have been projected into the local secondary index. Note that when querying a local secondary index or global secondary index, you must also provide the name of the base table using thetable-name
parameter.aws dynamodb query \ --table-name
MusicCollection
\ --index-nameAlbumTitleIndex
\ --key-condition-expression"Artist = :v1"
\ --expression-attribute-valuesfile://expression-attributes.json
\ --selectALL_PROJECTED_ATTRIBUTES
\ --return-consumed-capacityINDEXES
Contents of
expression-attributes.json
:{ ":v1": {"S": "No One You Know"} }
Output:
{ "Items": [ { "AlbumTitle": { "S": "Blue Sky Blues" }, "Artist": { "S": "No One You Know" }, "SongTitle": { "S": "Scared of My Shadow" } }, { "AlbumTitle": { "S": "Somewhat Famous" }, "Artist": { "S": "No One You Know" }, "SongTitle": { "S": "Call Me Today" } } ], "Count": 2, "ScannedCount": 2, "ConsumedCapacity": { "TableName": "MusicCollection", "CapacityUnits": 0.5, "Table": { "CapacityUnits": 0.0 }, "LocalSecondaryIndexes": { "AlbumTitleIndex": { "CapacityUnits": 0.5 } } } }
