Package Exports
- nestjs-dynamodb
- nestjs-dynamodb/lib/index.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (nestjs-dynamodb) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

NestJS DynamoDB Mapper
Description
Opinionated way to use DynamoDB with NestJS and typescript, heavily inspired by nestjs-typed-dynamodb
Getting Started
First install this module
npm install nestjs-dynamodb
Notice that it will install as a dependency:
Usage
In order to create a DynamoDB connection
app.module.ts
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { DynamoDBModule } from 'nestjs-dynamodb';
import { CatsModule } from './cat.module.ts';
@Module({
imports: [
DynamoDBModule.forRoot({
AWSConfig: {},
dynamoDBOptions: {},
}),
CatsModule,
],
})
export class AppModule {}
cats.module.ts
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { DynamoDBModule } from 'nestjs-dynamodb';
import { CatEntity } from './cat.entity';
import { CatsService } from './cats.service';
@Module({
imports: [DynamoDBModule.forFeature([CatEntity])],
providers: [CatsService],
})
export class CatsModule {}
To insert records to DynamoDB, you first need to create your table, for this we use dynamodb-data-mapper-annotations (under the hood). Every decorator in that package is exposed in this package as well BUT CAPITALIZED .
cat.entity.ts
import { Attribute, ReturnModel, Table } from 'nestjs-dynamodb';
import * as nanoid from 'nanoid';
@Table('cat')
class CatEntity {
@HashKey({ defaultProvider: nanoid })
pk: string;
@RangeKey()
sk: string;
@HashKey()
pk2: string;
@RangeKey()
sk2: string;
@Attribute()
age: number;
@Attribute()
alive?: boolean;
@Attribute()
createdAt: Date;
@Attribute({ defaultProvider: () => new Date() })
updatedAt: Date;
// This property will not be saved to DynamoDB.
notPersistedToDynamoDb: string;
}
export const Cat = ReturnModel<CatEntity>();
Note: nanoid is only used a way to assign a random id, feel free to use whatever you want
cats.service.ts
import { Injectable } from '@nestjs/common';
import { ReturnModel, InjectModel } from 'nestjs-dynamodb';
import { Cat } from './cat.entity';
import { CatInput } from './cat.input';
@Injectable()
export class CatsService {
constructor(@InjectModel(CatEntity) private readonly catModel: typeof Cat) {}
async all(input: Partial<CatInput>): Promise<Cat[]> {
return this.catModel.query(input);
}
async find(id: string): Promise<Cat> {
return this.catModel.find(id);
}
async create(input: CatInput): Promise<Cat> {
return this.catModel.create(input);
}
async delete(input: string): Promise<DynamoDB.DeleteItemOutput> {
return this.catModel.delete(input);
}
async update(id: string, item: CatInput): Promise<Cat> {
return this.catModel.update(id, item);
}
}
Now you can use your service as you wish!
Async configuration
app.module.ts
import { Module } from '@nestjs/common';
import { DynamoDBModule } from 'nestjs-dynamodb';
@Module({
imports: [
DynamoDBModule.forRootAsync({
imports: [ConfigModule],
useFactory: async (config: ConfigService) => ({
AWSConfig: {
region: 'local',
accessKeyId: 'null',
secretAccessKey: 'null',
},
dynamoDBOptions: {
endpoint: config.get<string>('DYNAMODB_URL', 'localhost:8000'),
sslEnabled: false,
region: 'local-env',
},
}),
inject: [ConfigService],
}),
],
})
export class AppModule {}
