Chapter 6. AWS DynamoDB

Only producer is supported

The AWS2 DynamoDB component supports storing and retrieving data from/to service.

Prerequisites

You must have a valid Amazon Web Services developer account, and be signed up to use Amazon DynamoDB. More information is available at Amazon DynamoDB.

6.1. Dependencies

When using aws2-ddb Red Hat build of Camel Spring Boot, add the following Maven dependency to your pom.xml to have support for auto configuration:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.camel.springboot</groupId>
  <artifactId>camel-aws2-ddb-starter</artifactId>
</dependency>

6.2. URI Format

aws2-ddb://domainName[?options]

You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?options=value&option2=value&…

6.3. Configuring Options

Camel components are configured on two levels:

Component level
Endpoint level

6.3.1. Component Level Options

The component level is the highest level. The configurations you define at this level are inherited by all the endpoints. For example, a component can have security settings, credentials for authentication, urls for network connection, and so on.

Since components typically have pre-configured defaults for the most common cases, you may need to only configure a few component options, or maybe none at all.

You can configure components with Component DSL in a configuration file (application.properties|yaml), or directly with Java code.

6.3.2. Endpoint Level Options

At the Endpoint level you have many options, which you can use to configure what you want the endpoint to do. The options are categorized according to whether the endpoint is used as a consumer (from) or as a producer (to) or used for both.

You can configure endpoints directly in the endpoint URI as path and query parameters. You can also use Endpoint DSL and DataFormat DSL as type safe ways of configuring endpoints and data formats in Java.

When configuring options, use Property Placeholders for urls, port numbers, sensitive information, and other settings.

Placeholders allows you to externalize the configuration from your code, giving you more flexible and reusable code.

6.4. Component Options

The AWS DynamoDB component supports 22 options, which are listed below.

Name	Description	Default	Type
amazonDDBClient (producer)	Autowired To use the AmazonDynamoDB as the client.		DynamoDbClient
configuration (producer)	The component configuration.		Ddb2Configuration
consistentRead (producer)	Determines whether or not strong consistency should be enforced when data is read.	false	boolean
enabledInitialDescribeTable (producer)	Set whether the initial Describe table operation in the DDB Endpoint must be done, or not.	true	boolean
keyAttributeName (producer)	Attribute name when creating table.		String
keyAttributeType (producer)	Attribute type when creating table.		String
keyScalarType (producer)	The key scalar type, it can be S (String), N (Number) and B (Bytes).		String
lazyStartProducer (producer)	Whether the producer should be started lazy (on the first message). By starting lazy you can use this to allow CamelContext and routes to startup in situations where a producer may otherwise fail during starting and cause the route to fail being started. By deferring this startup to be lazy then the startup failure can be handled during routing messages via Camel’s routing error handlers. Beware that when the first message is processed then creating and starting the producer may take a little time and prolong the total processing time of the processing.	false	boolean
operation (producer)	What operation to perform. Enum values: BatchGetItems DeleteItem DeleteTable DescribeTable GetItem PutItem Query Scan UpdateItem UpdateTable	PutItem	Ddb2Operations
overrideEndpoint (producer)	Set the need for overidding the endpoint. This option needs to be used in combination with uriEndpointOverride option.	false	boolean
proxyHost (producer)	To define a proxy host when instantiating the DDB client.		String
proxyPort (producer)	The region in which DynamoDB client needs to work. When using this parameter, the configuration will expect the lowercase name of the region (for example ap-east-1) You’ll need to use the name Region.EU_WEST_1.id().		Integer
proxyProtocol (producer)	To define a proxy protocol when instantiating the DDB client. Enum values: HTTP HTTPS	HTTPS	Protocol
readCapacity (producer)	The provisioned throughput to reserve for reading resources from your table.		Long
region (producer)	The region in which DDB client needs to work.		String
trustAllCertificates (producer)	If we want to trust all certificates in case of overriding the endpoint.	false	boolean
uriEndpointOverride (producer)	Set the overriding uri endpoint. This option needs to be used in combination with overrideEndpoint option.		String
useDefaultCredentialsProvider (producer)	Set whether the S3 client should expect to load credentials through a default credentials provider or to expect static credentials to be passed in.	false	boolean
writeCapacity (producer)	The provisioned throughput to reserved for writing resources to your table.		Long
autowiredEnabled (advanced)	Whether autowiring is enabled. This is used for automatic autowiring options (the option must be marked as autowired) by looking up in the registry to find if there is a single instance of matching type, which then gets configured on the component. This can be used for automatic configuring JDBC data sources, JMS connection factories, AWS Clients, etc.	true	boolean
accessKey (security)	Amazon AWS Access Key.		String
secretKey (security)	Amazon AWS Secret Key.		String

6.5. Endpoint Options

operation (producer)	What operation to perform. Enum values: BatchGetItems DeleteItem DeleteTable DescribeTable GetItem PutItem Query Scan UpdateItem UpdateTable	PutItem	Ddb2Operations
overrideEndpoint (producer)	Set the need for overidding the endpoint. This option needs to be used in combination with uriEndpointOverride option.	false	boolean

Required DDB component options

You have to provide the amazonDDBClient in the Registry or your accessKey and secretKey to access the Amazon’s DynamoDB.

6.6. Usage

6.6.1. Static credentials vs Default Credential Provider

You have the possibility of avoiding the usage of explicit static credentials, by specifying the useDefaultCredentialsProvider option and set it to true.

Java system properties - aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey
Environment variables - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
Web Identity Token from AWS STS.
The shared credentials and config files.
Amazon ECS container credentials - loaded from the Amazon ECS if the environment variable AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI is set.
Amazon EC2 Instance profile credentials.

For more information about this you can look at AWS credentials documentation

Query
Scan
UpdateItem
UpdateTable

6.8. Examples

PutItem: this operation will create an entry into DynamoDB

from("direct:start")
  .setHeader(Ddb2Constants.OPERATION, Ddb2Operations.PutItem)
  .setHeader(Ddb2Constants.CONSISTENT_READ, "true")
  .setHeader(Ddb2Constants.RETURN_VALUES, "ALL_OLD")
  .setHeader(Ddb2Constants.ITEM, attributeMap)
