AWS JavaScript SDK wrapper

This project is no longer maintained and should be considered deprecated. Please do not use it.

This project contains wrappers for useful parts of the AWS SDK, which makes them easier to use in general projects.

DynamoDB wrapper

The dynamodb.js module includes wrappers for useful methods of the class AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient. This allows you to create, read, update, and delete items from a DynamoDB table without having to worry about the complex ExpressionAttribute syntax the native API requires.

Note that complex queries involving multiple conditions aren't supported and must be constructed using the native AWS SDK API syntax with dynamodb.operation().

Example

The following query using the SDK API...

constparams={TableName: process.env.TABLE_NAME,IndexName: `name-index`,KeyConditionExpression: `#name = :name`,ExpressionAttributeNames: {['#name']: 'name'},ExpressionAttributeValues: {[':name']: 'Jon'},}AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient.query(params,(error,data)=>{if(error){console.error(error)}else{console.log(data)}})

...when using the wrapper becomes:

dynamodb.query(process.env.TABLE_NAME,'name','Jon').then(console.log)

Cognito wrapper

The cognito.js module includes a wrapper for the adminUpdateUserAttributes, listUsersInGroup and adminListGroupsForUser methods of the class AWS.CognitoIdentityServiceProvider. It also provides a getUser function that makes use of the listUsers method.

Contents:

• dynamodb
• cognito
• helpers
