Amazon DynamoDB - Using the CLI

aws dynamodb create-table \ --table-name Music \ --attribute-definitions \ AttributeName=Artist,AttributeType=S \ AttributeName=SongTitle,AttributeType=S \ --key-schema AttributeName=Artist,KeyType=HASH AttributeName=SongTitle,KeyType=RANGE \ --provisioned-throughput ReadCapacityUnits=1,WriteCapacityUnits=1


aws dynamodb put-item \ --table-name Music \ --item \ '{"Artist": {"S": "No One You Know"}, "SongTitle": {"S": "Call Me Today"}, "AlbumTitle": {"S": "Somewhat Famous"}}' \ --return-consumed-capacity TOTAL aws dynamodb put-item \ --table-name Music \ --item '{ \ "Artist": {"S": "Acme Band"}, \ "SongTitle": {"S": "Happy Day"}, \ "AlbumTitle": {"S": "Songs About Life"} }' \ --return-consumed-capacity TOTAL

consider the following JSON snippet, which is stored in a file named key-conditions.json:

{
    "Artist": {
        "AttributeValueList": [
            {   
                "S": "No One You Know"
            }   
        ],  
        "ComparisonOperator": "EQ"
    },  
    "SongTitle": {
        "AttributeValueList": [
            {   
                "S": "Call Me Today"
            }   
        ],  
        "ComparisonOperator": "EQ"
    }
}

You can now issue a Query request using the AWS CLI. In this example, the contents of the key-conditions.json file are used for the --key-conditions parameter:

aws dynamodb query --table-name Music --key-conditions file://key-conditions.json

Using the AWS CLI with Downloadable DynamoDB

aws dynamodb list-tables --endpoint-url http://localhost:8000
