Express Example

Most of the value from this can just come from looking at the code, but here's some instructions to run the project if you'd like.

1. Clone and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/rbickham11/DynamoNodeSlides.git
cd DynamoNodeSlides/examples/dynamonode
npm install

2. Create a file called config.json in the examples/dynamonode/dynamo directory with the following:

{
  "accessKey": "YOUR_ACCESS_KEY",
  "secretKey": "YOUR_SECRET KEY",
  "region": "YOUR_REGION"
}

3. Run npm start

To use the project as is, you must have a table in your dynamo account named dynamotalk_people with location as the partition key and id as the sort key.

However, to use a different table set you can modify the created tables here. Simply add or remove function calls similar to that on line 48.

You can also modify the searched prefix here
