Overview

This AWS Solutions Construct implements an Amazon API Gateway REST API connected to Amazon DynamoDB table.

Here is a minimal deployable pattern definition in Typescript:

# Example automatically generated without compilation. See https://github.com/aws/jsii/issues/826
from aws_solutions_constructs.aws_apigateway_dynamodb import ApiGatewayToDynamoDBProps, ApiGatewayToDynamoDB

ApiGatewayToDynamoDB(self, "test-api-gateway-dynamodb-default")

Initializer

new ApiGatewayToDynamoDB(scope: Construct, id: string, props: ApiGatewayToDynamoDBProps);

Parameters

Pattern Construct Props

Name Type Description
dynamoTableProps dynamodb.TableProps Optional user provided props to override the default props for DynamoDB Table
apiGatewayProps? api.RestApiProps Optional user-provided props to override the default props for the API Gateway.
allowCreateOperation boolean Whether to deploy API Gateway Method for Create operation on DynamoDB table.
createRequestTemplate string API Gateway Request template for Create method, required if allowCreateOperation set to true
allowReadOperation boolean Whether to deploy API Gateway Method for Read operation on DynamoDB table.
allowUpdateOperation boolean Whether to deploy API Gateway Method for Update operation on DynamoDB table.
updateRequestTemplate string API Gateway Request template for Update method, required if allowUpdateOperation set to true
allowDeleteOperation boolean Whether to deploy API Gateway Method for Delete operation on DynamoDB table.

Pattern Properties

Name Type Description
apiGateway api.RestApi Returns an instance of the api.RestApi created by the construct.
apiGatewayRole iam.Role Returns an instance of the iam.Role created by the construct for API Gateway.
dynamoTable dynamodb.Table Returns an instance of dynamodb.Table created by the construct.
apiGatewayCloudWatchRole iam.Role Returns an instance of the iam.Role created by the construct for API Gateway for CloudWatch access.
apiGatewayLogGroup logs.LogGroup Returns an instance of the LogGroup created by the construct for API Gateway access logging to CloudWatch.

Default settings

Out of the box implementation of the Construct without any override will set the following defaults:

Amazon API Gateway

  • Deploy an edge-optimized API endpoint
  • Enable CloudWatch logging for API Gateway
  • Configure least privilege access IAM role for API Gateway
  • Set the default authorizationType for all API methods to IAM
  • Enable X-Ray Tracing

Amazon DynamoDB Table

  • Set the billing mode for DynamoDB Table to On-Demand (Pay per request)
  • Enable server-side encryption for DynamoDB Table using AWS managed KMS Key
  • Creates a partition key called 'id' for DynamoDB Table
  • Retain the Table when deleting the CloudFormation stack
  • Enable continuous backups and point-in-time recovery
