Um eine Tabelle zu scannen

Im folgenden scan Beispiel wird die gesamte MusicCollection Tabelle gescannt und die Ergebnisse dann auf Songs des Künstlers „No One You Know“ eingegrenzt. Für jedes Element werden nur der Albumtitel und der Songtitel zurückgegeben.

aws dynamodb scan \
    --table-name MusicCollection \
    --filter-expression "Artist = :a" \
    --projection-expression "#ST, #AT" \
    --expression-attribute-names file://expression-attribute-names.json \
    --expression-attribute-values file://expression-attribute-values.json

Inhalt von expression-attribute-names.json:

{
    "#ST": "SongTitle",
    "#AT":"AlbumTitle"
}

Inhalt von expression-attribute-values.json:

{
    ":a": {"S": "No One You Know"}
}

Ausgabe:

{
    "Count": 2,
    "Items": [
        {
            "SongTitle": {
                "S": "Call Me Today"
            },
            "AlbumTitle": {
                "S": "Somewhat Famous"

                "S": "Scared of My Shadow"
            },
            "AlbumTitle": {
                "S": "Blue Sky Blues"
            }
