software.amazon.awssdk.enhanced.dynamodb.Key

@ThreadSafe
public final class Key
extends Object

An object that represents a key that can be used to either identify a specific record or form part of a query conditional. Keys are literal and hence not typed, and can be re-used in commands for different modelled types if the literal values are to be the same.

A key will always have a single partition key value associated with it, and optionally will have a sort key value. The names of the keys themselves are not part of this object.

Method Details

builder

public static Key.Builder builder()

Returns a new builder that can be used to construct an instance of this class.

Returns:

A newly initialized Key.Builder object.

keyMap

public Map<String,AttributeValue> keyMap(TableSchema<?> tableSchema,
 String index)

Return a map of the key elements that can be passed directly to DynamoDb.

Parameters:

tableSchema - A tableschema to determine the key attribute names from.

index - The name of the index to use when determining the key attribute names.

Returns:

A map of attribute names to AttributeValue.

partitionKeyValue

public AttributeValue partitionKeyValue()

Get the literal value of the partition key stored in this object.

Returns:

An AttributeValue representing the literal value of the partition key.

sortKeyValue

public Optional<AttributeValue> sortKeyValue()

Get the literal value of the sort key stored in this object if available.

Returns:

An optional AttributeValue representing the literal value of the sort key, or empty if there is no sort key value in this Key.

primaryKeyMap

public Map<String,AttributeValue> primaryKeyMap(TableSchema<?> tableSchema)

Return a map of the key elements that form the primary key of a table that can be passed directly to DynamoDb.

Parameters:

tableSchema - A tableschema to determine the key attribute names from.

Returns:

A map of attribute names to AttributeValue.

toBuilder

public Key.Builder toBuilder()

Converts an existing key into a builder object that can be used to modify its values and then create a new key.

Returns:

A Key.Builder initialized with the values of this key.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:
