+ [範例：使用 適用於 .NET 的 AWS SDK 低階 API 的本機次要索引](LSILowLevelDotNet.Example.md)

您可以使用 適用於 .NET 的 AWS SDK 低階 API 來建立具有一或多個本機次要索引的 Amazon DynamoDB 資料表、描述資料表上的索引，並使用索引執行查詢。這些操作會映射至對應的低階 DynamoDB API 動作。如需詳細資訊，請參閱 [.NET 程式碼範例](CodeSamples.DotNet.md)。

下列是使用 .NET 低階 API 執行資料表操作的一般步驟。

1. 建立 `AmazonDynamoDBClient` 類別的執行個體。

1. 透過建立對應的請求物件，為操作提供必要及選用的參數。

   例如，建立 `CreateTableRequest` 物件來建立資料表，以及建立 `QueryRequest` 物件來查詢資料表或索引。

1. 執行您在前一步驟中建立之用戶端所提供的適當方法。

## 使用本機次要索引建立資料表
<a name="LSILowLevelDotNet.CreateTableWithIndex"></a>

您必須同時建立資料表和本機次要索引。若要執行這項操作，請使用 `CreateTable`，並提供一或多個本機次要索引的規格。以下 C\$1 程式碼範例會建立資料表來保存音樂收藏中歌曲的相關資訊。分割區索引鍵為 `Artist`，而排序索引鍵為 `SongTitle`。次要索引 `AlbumTitleIndex` 有助於依照專輯標題查詢。

以下是使用 .NET 低階 API 建立具有本機次要索引之資料表的步驟。

1. 建立 `AmazonDynamoDBClient` 類別的執行個體。

1. 建立 `CreateTableRequest` 類別的執行個體，以提供請求資訊。

   您必須提供資料表名稱、其主索引鍵，以及佈建的輸送量數值。對於本機次要索引，您必須提供索引名稱、索引排序索引鍵的名稱和資料類型、索引的索引鍵結構描述以及屬性投影。

1. 以參數形式提供請求物件，以便執行 `CreateTable` 方法。

下列 C\$1 程式碼範例示範前述步驟。程式碼會建立一個資料表 (`Music`) 與次要索引 `AlbumTitle` 屬性。資料表分割區索引鍵和排序索引鍵以及索引排序索引鍵，是唯一投影到索引的屬性。

```
AmazonDynamoDBClient client = new AmazonDynamoDBClient();
string tableName = "Music";

CreateTableRequest createTableRequest = new CreateTableRequest()
{
    TableName = tableName
};

//ProvisionedThroughput
createTableRequest.ProvisionedThroughput = new ProvisionedThroughput()
{
    ReadCapacityUnits = (long)5,
    WriteCapacityUnits = (long)5
};

//AttributeDefinitions
List<AttributeDefinition> attributeDefinitions = new List<AttributeDefinition>();

attributeDefinitions.Add(new AttributeDefinition()
{
    AttributeName = "Artist",
    AttributeType = "S"
});

attributeDefinitions.Add(new AttributeDefinition()
 {
     AttributeName = "SongTitle",
     AttributeType = "S"
 });

attributeDefinitions.Add(new AttributeDefinition()
 {
     AttributeName = "AlbumTitle",
     AttributeType = "S"
 });

createTableRequest.AttributeDefinitions = attributeDefinitions;

//KeySchema
List<KeySchemaElement> tableKeySchema = new List<KeySchemaElement>();

tableKeySchema.Add(new KeySchemaElement() { AttributeName = "Artist", KeyType = "HASH" });  //Partition key
tableKeySchema.Add(new KeySchemaElement() { AttributeName = "SongTitle", KeyType = "RANGE" });  //Sort key

createTableRequest.KeySchema = tableKeySchema;

List<KeySchemaElement> indexKeySchema = new List<KeySchemaElement>();
indexKeySchema.Add(new KeySchemaElement() { AttributeName = "Artist", KeyType = "HASH" });  //Partition key
indexKeySchema.Add(new KeySchemaElement() { AttributeName = "AlbumTitle", KeyType = "RANGE" });  //Sort key

Projection projection = new Projection() { ProjectionType = "INCLUDE" };

List<string> nonKeyAttributes = new List<string>();
nonKeyAttributes.Add("Genre");
nonKeyAttributes.Add("Year");
projection.NonKeyAttributes = nonKeyAttributes;

LocalSecondaryIndex localSecondaryIndex = new LocalSecondaryIndex()
{
    IndexName = "AlbumTitleIndex",
    KeySchema = indexKeySchema,
    Projection = projection
};

List<LocalSecondaryIndex> localSecondaryIndexes = new List<LocalSecondaryIndex>();
localSecondaryIndexes.Add(localSecondaryIndex);
createTableRequest.LocalSecondaryIndexes = localSecondaryIndexes;

CreateTableResponse result = client.CreateTable(createTableRequest);
Console.WriteLine(result.CreateTableResult.TableDescription.TableName);
Console.WriteLine(result.CreateTableResult.TableDescription.TableStatus);
```

您必須等到 DynamoDB 建立資料表，並將資料表狀態設定為 `ACTIVE`。之後，您可以開始將資料項目放入資料表中。

## 使用本機次要索引描述資料表
<a name="LSILowLevelDotNet.DescribeTableWithIndex"></a>

若要取得資料表上本機次要索引的資訊，請使用 `DescribeTable` API。對於每個索引，您可以存取其名稱、索引鍵結構描述和投影屬性。

以下是使用 .NET 低階 API 存取資料表的本機次要索引資訊的步驟。

1. 建立 `AmazonDynamoDBClient` 類別的執行個體。

1. 建立 `DescribeTableRequest` 類別的執行個體，以提供請求資訊。您必須提供資料表名稱。

1. 以參數形式提供請求物件，以便執行 `describeTable` 方法。

下列 C\$1 程式碼範例示範前述步驟。

**Example**  

```
AmazonDynamoDBClient client = new AmazonDynamoDBClient();
string tableName = "Music";

DescribeTableResponse response = client.DescribeTable(new DescribeTableRequest() { TableName = tableName });
List<LocalSecondaryIndexDescription> localSecondaryIndexes =
    response.DescribeTableResult.Table.LocalSecondaryIndexes;

// This code snippet will work for multiple indexes, even though
// there is only one index in this example.
foreach (LocalSecondaryIndexDescription lsiDescription in localSecondaryIndexes)
{
    Console.WriteLine("Info for index " + lsiDescription.IndexName + ":");

    foreach (KeySchemaElement kse in lsiDescription.KeySchema)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("\t" + kse.AttributeName + ": key type is " + kse.KeyType);
    }

    Projection projection = lsiDescription.Projection;

    Console.WriteLine("\tThe projection type is: " + projection.ProjectionType);

    if (projection.ProjectionType.ToString().Equals("INCLUDE"))
    {
        Console.WriteLine("\t\tThe non-key projected attributes are:");

        foreach (String s in projection.NonKeyAttributes)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("\t\t" + s);
        }

    }
}
```

## 查詢本機次要索引
<a name="LSILowLevelDotNet.QueryAnIndex"></a>

您可以依照與 `Query` 資料表大致相同的方式在本機次要索引上使用 `Query`。您必須指定索引名稱、索引排序索引鍵的查詢準則，以及您要傳回的屬性。在本例中，索引是 `AlbumTitleIndex`，而索引排序索引鍵為 `AlbumTitle`。

傳回的唯一屬性是已投影到索引的屬性。您也可以修改此查詢來選擇非索引鍵屬性，但這需要相對昂貴的資料表擷取活動。如需資料表擷取的詳細資訊，請參閱 [屬性投影](LSI.md#LSI.Projections)

以下是使用 .NET 低階 API 查詢本機次要索引的步驟。

1. 建立 `AmazonDynamoDBClient` 類別的執行個體。

1. 建立 `QueryRequest` 類別的執行個體，以提供請求資訊。

1. 以參數形式提供請求物件，以便執行 `query` 方法。

下列 C\$1 程式碼範例示範前述步驟。

**Example**  

```
QueryRequest queryRequest = new QueryRequest
{
    TableName = "Music",
    IndexName = "AlbumTitleIndex",
    Select = "ALL_ATTRIBUTES",
    ScanIndexForward = true,
    KeyConditionExpression = "Artist = :v_artist and AlbumTitle = :v_title",
    ExpressionAttributeValues = new Dictionary<string, AttributeValue>()
    {
        {":v_artist",new AttributeValue {S = "Acme Band"}},
        {":v_title",new AttributeValue {S = "Songs About Life"}}
    },
};

QueryResponse response = client.Query(queryRequest);

foreach (var attribs in response.Items)
{
    foreach (var attrib in attribs)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(attrib.Key + " ---> " + attrib.Value.S);
    }
    Console.WriteLine();
}
```

# 範例：使用 適用於 .NET 的 AWS SDK 低階 API 的本機次要索引
<a name="LSILowLevelDotNet.Example"></a>

下列 C\$1 程式碼範例示範如何在 Amazon DynamoDB 中使用本機次要索引。例如，您可以建立名為 `CustomerOrders` 的資料表，其中分割區索引鍵為 `CustomerId`，排序索引鍵為 `OrderId`。此資料表上有兩個本機次要索引：
+ `OrderCreationDateIndex`：排序索引鍵為 `OrderCreationDate`，並且以下屬性會投影到索引：
  + `ProductCategory`
  + `ProductName`
  + `OrderStatus`
  + `ShipmentTrackingId`
+ `IsOpenIndex`：排序索引鍵為 `IsOpen`，並且所有的資料表屬性都會投影到索引。

建立 `CustomerOrders` 資料表後，程式會載入所含資料表示客戶訂單的資料表。然後，其便會使用本機次要索引查詢資料。最後，程式會刪除 `CustomerOrders` 資料表。

如需測試下列範例的逐步說明，請參閱 [.NET 程式碼範例](CodeSamples.DotNet.md)。
