Class KeySchemaElement

java.lang.Object

com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.model.KeySchemaElement

All Implemented Interfaces:

StructuredPojo, Serializable, Cloneable

@Generated(value="com.amazonaws:aws-java-sdk-code-generator")
public class KeySchemaElement
extends Object
implements Serializable, Cloneable, StructuredPojo

Represents a single element of a key schema. A key schema specifies the attributes that make up the primary key of a table, or the key attributes of an index.

A KeySchemaElement represents exactly one attribute of the primary key. For example, a simple primary key would be represented by one KeySchemaElement (for the partition key). A composite primary key would require one KeySchemaElement for the partition key, and another KeySchemaElement for the sort key.

A KeySchemaElement must be a scalar, top-level attribute (not a nested attribute). The data type must be one of String, Number, or Binary. The attribute cannot be nested within a List or a Map.

Constructor Detail

KeySchemaElement

public KeySchemaElement()

Default constructor for KeySchemaElement object. Callers should use the setter or fluent setter (with...) methods to initialize the object after creating it.

KeySchemaElement

public KeySchemaElement(String attributeName,
                        String keyType)

Constructs a new KeySchemaElement object. Callers should use the setter or fluent setter (with...) methods to initialize any additional object members.

Parameters:

attributeName - The name of a key attribute.

keyType - The role that this key attribute will assume:

• HASH - partition key

• RANGE - sort key

The partition key of an item is also known as its hash attribute. The term "hash attribute" derives from DynamoDB' usage of an internal hash function to evenly distribute data items across partitions, based on their partition key values.

The sort key of an item is also known as its range attribute. The term "range attribute" derives from the way DynamoDB stores items with the same partition key physically close together, in sorted order by the sort key value.

KeySchemaElement

public KeySchemaElement(String attributeName,

Parameters:

attributeName - The name of a key attribute.

keyType - The role that this key attribute will assume:

• HASH - partition key

• RANGE - sort key

The partition key of an item is also known as its hash attribute. The term "hash attribute" derives from DynamoDB' usage of an internal hash function to evenly distribute data items across partitions, based on their partition key values.
