Safe Copy Dynamodb Table

This module will allow you to copy data from one table to another using very simple API, Support cross zone copying and AWS config for each table ( source & destination ) and it can create the destination table using source table schema

Dependencies NPM version

NPM

Installation

npm i copy-dynamodb-table

Usage :

var copy = require('copy-dynamodb-table').copy
 
copy({
    source: {
      tableName: 'source_table_name', // required
    },
    destination: {
      tableName: 'destination_table_name', // required
    },
    log: true, // default false
    create : true // create destination table if not exist
  },
  function (err, result) {
    if (err) {
      console.log(err)
    }
    console.log(result)
  })

Adding AWS Config :

var copy = require('copy-dynamodb-table').copy
 
var globalAWSConfig = { // AWS Configuration object http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/Config.html#constructor-property
  accessKeyId: 'AKID',
  secretAccessKey: 'SECRET',
  region: 'eu-west-1'
}
 
copy({
    config: globalAWSConfig, // config for AWS
    source: {
      tableName: 'source_table_name', // required
    },
    destination: {
      tableName: 'destination_table_name', // required
    },
    log: true, // default false
    create : true // create destination table if not exist
  },
  function (err, result) {
    if (err) {
      console.log(err)
    }
    console.log(result)
  })

AWS Config for each table ( cross region ) :

var copy = require('copy-dynamodb-table').copy
 
var globalAWSConfig = { // AWS Configuration object http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/Config.html#constructor-property
  accessKeyId: 'AKID',
  secretAccessKey: 'SECRET',
  region: 'eu-west-1'
}
 
var sourceAWSConfig = {
  accessKeyId: 'AKID',
  secretAccessKey: 'SECRET',
  region: 'eu-west-1'
}
 
var destinationAWSConfig = {
  accessKeyId: 'AKID',
  secretAccessKey: 'SECRET',
  region: 'us-west-2' // support cross zone copying
}
 
copy({
    config: globalAWSConfig,
    source: {
      tableName: 'source_table_name', // required
      config: sourceAWSConfig // optional , leave blank to use globalAWSConfig
    },
    destination: {
      tableName: 'destination_table_name', // required
      config: destinationAWSConfig // optional , leave blank to use globalAWSConfig
    },
    log: true,// default false
    create : true // create destination table if not exist
  },
  function (err, result) {
    if (err) {
      console.log(err)
    }
    console.log(result)
  })

Note :

  • If source.config or destination.config value is undefined , the module will use the globalAWSConfig.
  • If globalAWSConfig value is undefined the module will extact AWS config from environment variables.
  • Increase Write capacity for your dynamodb table temporarily until the copying is finished so you can get the highest copying speed

Use Case :

With source table read capacity units = 100 & destination table write capacity units = 1000 , I managed to copy ~100,000 items from source to destination within ~175 seconds , with avarage item size of 4 KB.
