dynoexpr

Expression builder for AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient

Introduction

Converts a plain object to a DynamoDB expression with all variables and names replaced with safe placeholders. It supports Condition, KeyCondition, Filter, Projection and Update expressions. The resulting expressions can then be used with AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient requests.

import dynoexpr from '@tuplo/dynoexpr';

const params = dynoexpr({
  KeyCondition: { id: '567' },
  Condition: { rating: '> 4.5' },
  Filter: { color: 'blue' },
  Projection: ['weight', 'size'],
});

/*
{
  KeyConditionExpression: '(#n75a60c8f = :v64c5aa3d)',
  ExpressionAttributeValues: { 
    ':v64c5aa3d': '567', 
    ':va7bbf170': 4.5, 
    ':v91380c8f': 'blue'
  },
  ConditionExpression: '(#n8793843d > :va7bbf170)',
  FilterExpression: '(#n4bce9bfd = :v91380c8f)',
  ProjectionExpression: '#nf337db8f,#n395c1a24',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: {
    '#n75a60c8f': 'id',
    '#n8793843d': 'rating',
    '#n4bce9bfd': 'color',
    '#nf337db8f': 'weight',
    '#n395c1a24': 'size'
  }
}
*/

Install

$ npm install @tuplo/dynoexpr

# or with yarn
$ yarn add @tuplo/dynoexpr

Usage

Passing parameters to DocumentClient

const docClient = new AWS.DynamoDB.DocumentClient();

const params = dynoexpr({
  KeyCondition: {
    HashKey: 'key',
    RangeKey: 'between 2015 and 2019',
  },
});

const results = await docClient
  .query({ TableName: 'table', ...params })
  .promise();

Using multiple expressions on the same field

You can use multiple expressions on the same field, by packing them into an array and assigning it to the key with the field's name.

const params = dynoexpr({
  Condition: {
    color: ['attribute_not_exists', 'yellow', 'blue'],
  },
  ConditionLogicalOperator: 'OR',
});

/*
{
  ConditionExpression: '(attribute_not_exists(#n4bce9bfd)) OR (#n4bce9bfd = :vaeafa351) OR (#n4bce9bfd = :v91380c8f)',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: { 
    '#n4bce9bfd': 'color'
  },
  ExpressionAttributeValues: {
    ':vaeafa351': 'yellow', 
    ':v91380c8f': 'blue'
  }
}
*/

Using functions

DynamoDB supports a number of functions to be evaluated when parsing expressions. You don't need to reference the path argument because that's identified by the object's key.

const params = dynoexpr({
  Condition: {
    docs: 'attribute_exists',
    brand: 'attribute_not_exists',
    extra: 'attribute_type(NULL)',
    color: 'begins_with dark',
    address: 'contains(Seattle)',
    description: 'size < 20',
  },
});

/*
{
  ConditionExpression: '(attribute_exists(#n3f51d286)) AND (attribute_not_exists(#n51fd0ed7)) AND (attribute_type(#n12a7a4d6,:v0824ec29)) AND (begins_with(#n4bce9bfd,:v372ebe37)) AND (contains(#n9ad2536a,:vb3b07bff)) AND (size(#n8fcb2786) < :v106a3b84)',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: {
    '#n3f51d286': 'docs',
    '#n51fd0ed7': 'brand',
    '#n12a7a4d6': 'extra',
    '#n4bce9bfd': 'color',
    '#n9ad2536a': 'address',
    '#n8fcb2786': 'description'
  },
  ExpressionAttributeValues: {
    ':v0824ec29': 'NULL',
    ':v372ebe37': 'dark',
    ':vb3b07bff': 'Seattle',
    ':v106a3b84': 20
    }
  }
}
*/

Using multiple expressions on the same request

const params = dynoexpr({
  Update: { Sum: 'Sum + 20' },
  Condition: { Sum: `< 100` },
});

/*
{
  ConditionExpression: '(#n0a01a3d5 < :ve770c6dd)',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: { 
    '#n0a01a3d5': 'Sum' 
  },
  ExpressionAttributeValues: { 
    ':ve770c6dd': 100, 
    ':v106a3b84': 20
  },
  UpdateExpression: 'SET #n0a01a3d5 = #n0a01a3d5 + :v106a3b84'
}
*/

Working with Sets

If a value is provided as a Set, it will be converted to DocumentClient.DynamoDbSet. But dynoexpr doesn't include DocumentClient so you need to provide it.

import { DocumentClient } from "aws-sdk/clients/dynamodb";

const params = dynoexpr({
  DocumentClient,
  Update: {
    Color: new Set(['Orange', 'Purple'])
  },
})

/*
{
  UpdateExpression: 'SET #ndc9f7295 = :v3add0a80',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: { 
    '#ndc9f7295': 'Color'
  },
  ExpressionAttributeValues: {
    ':v3add0a80': Set { wrapperName: 'Set', values: [Array], type: 'String' }
  }
}
*/

When using UpdateAdd or UpdateDelete, arrays are converted to DynamoDbSet

import { DocumentClient } from "aws-sdk/clients/dynamodb";

const params = dynoexpr({
  DocumentClient,
  UpdateAdd: {
    Color: ['Orange', 'Purple']
  }
})

/*
{
  UpdateExpression: 'ADD #ndc9f7295 :v3add0a80',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: { 
    '#ndc9f7295': 'Color'
  },
  ExpressionAttributeValues: {
    ':v3add0a80': Set { wrapperName: 'Set', values: [Array], type: 'String' }
  }
}
*/

Keep existing Expressions, AttributeNames and AttributeValues

const params = dynoexpr({
  Filter: { color: 'blue' },
  ProjectionExpression: '#year',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: {
    '#year': 'year',
  },
});

/*
{
  ProjectionExpression: '#year',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: {
    '#year': 'year',
    '#n4bce9bfd': 'color'
  },
  FilterExpression: '(#n4bce9bfd = :v91380c8f)',
  ExpressionAttributeValues: {
    ':v91380c8f': 'blue'
  }
}
*/

Parsing atomic requests, only expressions will be replaced

You can pass the whole request parameters to dynoexpr - only the expression builders will be replaced.

const params = dynoexpr({
  TableName: 'Table',
  Key: { HashKey: 'key' },
  ReturnConsumedCapacity: 'TOTAL',
  KeyCondition: {
    color: 'begins_with dark',
  },
});

/*
{
  TableName: 'Table',
  Key: { HashKey: 'key' },
  ReturnConsumedCapacity: 'TOTAL',
  KeyConditionExpression: '(begins_with(#n4bce9bfd,:v372ebe37))',
  ExpressionAttributeNames: {
    '#n4bce9bfd': 'color'
  },
  ExpressionAttributeValues: {
    ':v372ebe37': 'dark'
  }
}
*/

Parsing Batch requests

const params = dynoexpr({
  RequestItems: {
    'Table-1': {
      Keys: [{ foo: 'bar' }],
      Projection: ['a', 'b'],
    },
  },
  ReturnConsumedCapacity: 'TOTAL',
});

/*
{
  "RequestItems":{
    "Table-1":{
      "Keys": [{"foo":"bar"}],
      "ProjectionExpression": "#n69772661,#n7531578f",
      "ExpressionAttributeNames":{
        "#n69772661": "a",
        "#n7531578f": "b"
      }
    }
  },
  "ReturnConsumedCapacity": "TOTAL"
}
*/

Parsing Transact requests

const params = dynoexpr({
  TransactItems: [{
    Get: {
      TableName: 'Table-1',
      Key: { id: 'foo' },
      Projection: ['a', 'b'],
    },
  }],
  ReturnConsumedCapacity: 'INDEXES',
});

/*
{
  "TransactItems": [
    { 
      "Get": {
        "TableName": "Table-1",
        "Key": { "id": "foo" },
        "ProjectionExpression": "#n69772661,#n7531578f",
        "ExpressionAttributeNames": {
          "#n69772661":"a",
          "#n7531578f":"b"
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  "ReturnConsumedCapacity": "INDEXES"
}
*/

Type the resulting parameters

The resulting object is compatible with all DocumentClient requests, but if you want to be type-safe, dynoexpr accepts a generic type to be applied to the return value.

const params = dynoexpr<AWS.DocumentClient.UpdateItemInput>({
  TableName: 'Table',
  Key: 1,
  UpdateSet: { color: 'pink' },
});
