#find_index(hash, range = nil) ⇒ Dynamoid::Indexes::Index?

Returns an index by its hash key and optional range key.

It works only for indexes without explicit name declared.

def find_index(hash, range = nil)

  index
end

#global_secondary_index(options = {}) ⇒ Object

Defines a Global Secondary index on a table. Keys can be specified as hash-only, or hash & range.

class Post
  include Dynamoid::Document

  field :category

  global_secondary_indexes hash_key: :category
end

The full example with all the options being specified:

global_secondary_indexes hash_key: :category,
                         range_key: :created_at,
                         name: 'posts_category_created_at_index',
                         projected_attributes: :all,
                         read_capacity: 100,
                         write_capacity: 20

Global secondary index should be declared after fields for mentioned hash key and optional range key are declared (with method field)

The only mandatory option is hash_key. Raises Dynamoid::Errors::InvalidIndex exception if passed incorrect options.

Options Hash (options):

  • name (Symbol) —

    the name for the index; this still gets namespaced. If not specified, will use a default name.

  • hash_key (Symbol) —

    the index hash key column.

  • range_key (Symbol) —

    the index range key column (if applicable).

  • projected_attributes (Symbol, Array<Symbol>) —

    table attributes to project for this index. Can be :keys_only, :all or an array of included fields. If not specified, defaults to :keys_only.

  • read_capacity (Integer) —

    set the read capacity for the index; does not work on existing indexes.

  • write_capacity (Integer) —

    set the write capacity for the index; does not work on existing indexes.

#index_key(hash, range = nil) ⇒ String

Generates a convenient lookup key name for a hash/range index. Should normally not be used directly.

Returns true iff the provided hash key combo is a global secondary index.

end

#local_secondary_index(options = {}) ⇒ Object

Defines a local secondary index on a table. Will use the same primary hash key as the table.

class Comment
  include Dynamoid::Document

  table hash_key: :post_id
  range :created_at, :datetime
  field :author_id

  local_secondary_indexes hash_key: :author_id
end

The full example with all the options being specified:

local_secondary_indexes range_key: :created_at,
                        name: 'posts_created_at_index',
                        projected_attributes: :all

Local secondary index should be declared after fields for mentioned hash key and optional range key are declared (with method field) as well as after table method call.

The only mandatory option is range_key. Raises Dynamoid::Errors::InvalidIndex exception if passed incorrect options.

Options Hash (options):

  • name (Symbol) —

    the name for the index; this still gets namespaced. If not specified, a name is automatically generated.

  • range_key (Symbol) —

    the range key column for the index.

  • projected_attributes (Symbol, Array<Symbol>) —

    table attributes to project for this index. Can be :keys_only, :all or an array of included fields. If not specified, defaults to :keys_only.
