Querying DynamoDB with Lambda does nothing

Question

I have the following code for a Lambda function:

console.log(\'Loading function\');
var aws = require(\'aws-sdk\');
var ddb = new aws.DynamoDB();

function getUs         


        

Answer 1

Now since node.js has introduced async/await, this can make it wait until the query call returns before the main function terminates:

let result = await ddb.getItem(params).promise();
return result;
