dynamo3 1.0.0

Python 3 compatible library for DynamoDB

Dynamo3

Build:
Downloads:	http://pypi.python.org/pypi/dynamo3
Source:	https://github.com/stevearc/dynamo3

Dynamo3 is a library for querying DynamoDB. It is designed to be higher-level than boto (it’s built on top of botocore), to make simple operations easier to perform and understand.

Features

• Mypy-typed API
• Python object wrappers for most AWS data structures
• Automatic serialization of built-in types, with hooks for custom types
• Automatic paging of results
• Automatic batching for batch_write_item
• Exponential backoff of requests when throughput is exceeded
• Throughput limits to self-throttle requests to a certain rate
• Nose plugin for running DynamoDB Local

DynamoDB features that are not yet supported

• Reading from streams
• Adding/removing tags on a table
• Table backups
• Scanning with segments
• Table replicas (Global tables version 2019.11.21)
• Table auto scaling
• DAX

Note that you can still access these APIs by using DynamoDBConnection.call, though you may prefer to go straight to boto3/botocore.
