}
} while (status != TableStatus.ACTIVE);
In the preceding example, the target table to check is referenced through the AmazonDynamoDBClient
class's DescribeTable method. Every 5 seconds, the code checks the value of the table's TableStatus
property. When the status is set to ACTIVE, then the table is ready to be modified.
The following example shows how to use the low-level model to insert two items into a table in DynamoDB:
// using Amazon.DynamoDBv2;
// using Amazon.DynamoDBv2.Model;
var client = new AmazonDynamoDBClient();
var request1 = new PutItemRequest
{
TableName = "AnimalsInventory",
Item = new Dictionary<string, AttributeValue>
{
{ "Id", new AttributeValue { N = "1" }},
{ "Type", new AttributeValue { S = "Dog" }},
{ "Name", new AttributeValue { S = "Fido" }}
}
};
var request2 = new PutItemRequest
{
TableName = "AnimalsInventory",
Item = new Dictionary<string, AttributeValue>
{
{ "Id", new AttributeValue { N = "2" }},
{ "Type", new AttributeValue { S = "Cat" }},
{ "Name", new AttributeValue { S = "Patches" }}
}
};
client.PutItem(request1);
client.PutItem(request2);
In the preceding example, each item is inserted through the AmazonDynamoDBClient class's PutItem
method, using an instance of the PutItemRequest class. Each of the two instances of the
PutItemRequest class takes the name of the table to be inserted into, along with a series of item attribute
values.
