How I can get JSON object in response from DynamoDB ? I store data in DB as array of object in format JSON. I have next mapping template request
{
"version": "2017-02-28",
"operation": "PutItem",
"key": {
"userId": {
"S": "$context.identity.username"
}
},
#set( $attrs = $util.dynamodb.toMapValues($ctx.args))
#set( $attrs.categories = $util.dynamodb.toDynamoDB($ctx.args.categories))
"attributeValues": $util.toJson($attrs)
}
and mapping template response
#set( $result = $ctx.result)
#set( $result.categories = $util.parseJson($ctx.result.categories))
$util.toJson($result)
but I got response in the format DynamoDB JSON
"createItem": {
"title": "Test 1",
"categories": "[{name=food, id=2}, {name=eat, id=1}]"
}
in dynamoDB date save as
"categories": {
"L": [
{
"M": {
"id": {
"S": "2"
},
"name": {
"S": "food"
}
}
},
{
"M": {
"id": {
"S": "1"
},
"name": {
"S": "eat"
}
}
}
]
}
How parse it to normal JSON or object ?
回答1:
In your current mapping template, you are storing categories as a "S" in DDB which means string and this is why you are getting a stringified version of the DynamoDB list. Assuming you are running a mutation that looks something like this:
mutation {
create(input: { title: "Test 1", categories: [{ name: "category 1" }] }) {
title
categories {
name
}
}
}
Then you should change your mapping template to this:
{
"version": "2017-02-28",
"operation": "PutItem",
"key": {
"userId": {
"S": "$context.identity.username"
}
},
"attributeValues": $util.toJson($ctx.args)
}
The above template can be used if you want to store the data as DynamoDB Lists and Maps. If you are instead trying to store your JSON as a JSON stringified blob in a DynamoDB "S" attribute but without the L's and M's then instead change your template to this:
{
"version": "2017-02-28",
"operation": "PutItem",
"key": {
"userId": {
"S": "$context.identity.username"
}
},
#set( $attrs = $util.dynamodb.toMapValues($ctx.args))
## NOTE: The $util.toJson instead of the dynamodb version which adds L, M, S, etc
#set( $attrs.categories = { "S": "$util.toJson($ctx.args.categories)"})
"attributeValues": $util.toJson($attrs)
}
And then in the response mapping template, you will need to parse the JSON to returned structured JSON instead of a JSON stringified string.
## Get the result and parse categories into structured objects.
#set( $result = $ctx.result)
#set( $result.categories = $util.parseJson($ctx.result.categories))
## Return the full JSON payload
$util.toJson($result)
EDIT (More Details):
I have these schema parts (note this is not complete):
type Category {
name: String
}
input CategoryInput {
name: String
}
input CreatePostInput {
title: String
categories: [CategoryInput]
}
type Post {
id: ID!
title: String
categories: [Category]
}
type Mutation {
createPost(input: CreatePostInput!): Post
}
And this request mapping template exactly:
## Mutation.createPost request mapping template
#set( $attrs = $util.dynamodb.toMapValues($ctx.args.input))
#set( $attrs.categories = { "S": "$util.toJson($ctx.args.input.categories)"})
{
"version": "2017-02-28",
"operation": "PutItem",
"key": {
"id": $util.dynamodb.toDynamoDBJson($util.autoId()),
},
"attributeValues": $util.toJson($attrs),
"condition": {
"expression": "attribute_not_exists(#id)",
"expressionNames": {
"#id": "id",
},
},
}
And this response mapping template
## Mutation.createPost response mapping template
## Get the result and parse categories into structured objects.
#set( $result = $ctx.result)
#set( $result.categories = $util.parseJson($ctx.result.categories))
## Return the full JSON payload
$util.toJson($result)
I was then able to run this query:
mutation {
createPost(input: {
title: "Hello, world!",
categories: [
{
name: "cat1"
}
]
}) {
id
title
categories {
name
}
}
}
and got this response:
{
"data": {
"createJSONTest2": {
"id": "c72ff226-0d67-41c4-9c47-784955a64bc5",
"title": "Hello, world!",
"categories": [
{
"name": "cat1"
}
]
}
}
}
when I go to the DynamoDB console this is stored as the category attribute
[{"name":"cat1"}]
It appears this is all working correctly. Lmk if you need further help debugging.
