DynamoDBCSV

A utility that allows CSV import / export to DynamoDB on the command line

Give a โญ๏ธ if you like this tool!

Introduction

I made this command because I didn't have any tools to satisfy my modest desire to make it easy to import CSV files into DynamoDB. Written in a simple Python script, it's easy to parse and modify.

It works for me.

Getting started ๐Ÿš€

Install

$ python -m venv venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
$ pip install dynamodb-csv
$ dynamodb-csv -h
usage: dynamodb-csv [-h] [-v] [-i] [-e] [--truncate] -t TABLE [-idx INDEX] [-f FILE] [-o OUTPUT] [--ignore] [--profile PROFILE]

Import CSV file into DynamoDB table utilities

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --version         show version
  -i, --imp             mode import
  -e, --exp             mode export
  --truncate            mode truncate
  -t TABLE, --table TABLE
                        DynamoDB table name
  -idx INDEX, --index INDEX
                        DynamoDB index name
  -f FILE, --file FILE  UTF-8 CSV file path required import mode
  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT
                        output file path required export mode
  --ignore              ignore import error
  --profile PROFILE     using AWS profile

Install for developer

$ python -m venv venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
$ python setup.py install
$ dynamodb-csv -h

Or

$ python -m venv venv
$ . venv/bin/activate
$ pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
$ export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`
$ python app/main.py -h

For Windows

> python -m venv venv
> venv\Scripts\activate
> pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
> set PYTHONPATH=%cd%
> python app/main.py -h

Or you can use devcontainer.

Use Docker image

$ docker run --rm -v ${PWD}/:/local danishi/dynamodb-csv:tagname -i -t my_table -f sample.csv

For Windows

> docker run --rm -v %cd%/:/local danishi/dynamodb-csv:tagname -i -t my_table -f sample.csv

Create your config.ini file on current directory

[AWS]
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_access_key
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_secret_key
REGION=your_dynamodb_table_region
# Option
#ENDPOINT_URL=http://dynamodb-local:8000

Not required if AWS profile is specified as a parameter.

Create your CSV and CSV spec file

Prepare a UTF-8 CSV file of the format you want to import into your DynamoDB table and a file that defines that format.

For example

Please refer to this writing method.

sample.csv

StringPK,NumberSK,DecimalValue,BooleanValue,NullValue,JsonValue,StringListValues,DecimalListValues
foo,1,1.23,TRUE,,"[{""string"" : ""value""},{""number"" : 100}]",foo bar baz,10 10.1 20
foo,2,0.001,,,"[{""boolean"" : true}]",ใƒชใƒณใ‚ด ใƒใƒŠใƒŠ ใ‚นใ‚คใ‚ซ,10 10.1 20
foo,3,1,,,"[{""boolean"" : false}]",,

sample.csv.spec

# sample.csv data format specification

# String : S
# Integer : I
# Decimal : D
# Boolean : B (blank false)
# Json : J
# StringList : SL
# StringSet : SS
# DecimalList : DL
# DecimalSet : DS

[CSV_SPEC]
StringPK=S
NumberSK=I
DecimalValue=D
BooleanValue=B
NullValue=S
JsonValue=J
StringListValues=SL
StringSetValues=SS
DecimalListValues=DL
DecimalSetValues=DS

Create DynamoDB table

You need to have created a DynamoDB table that meets your specifications.

$ aws dynamodb create-table --cli-input-json file://my_table.json --region ap-northeast-1
$ aws dynamodb describe-table --table-name my_table
{
    "Table": {
        "AttributeDefinitions": [

                    {
                        "AttributeName": "NumberSK",
                        "KeyType": "HASH"
                    }
                ],
                "Projection": {
                    "ProjectionType": "INCLUDE",
                    "NonKeyAttributes": [
                        "DecimalValue",
                        "JsonValue"
                    ]
                },
                "IndexStatus": "ACTIVE",
                "ProvisionedThroughput": {
                    "NumberOfDecreasesToday": 0,
                    "ReadCapacityUnits": 5,
                    "WriteCapacityUnits": 5
                },
                "IndexSizeBytes": 0,
                "ItemCount": 0,
                "IndexArn": "arn:aws:dynamodb:ap-northeast-1:XXXXXXXXXXX:table/my_table/index/NumberSK-index"
            }
        ]
    }
}

CSV import into Table

This command requires a CSV spec file in the same directory.

$ dynamodb-csv -i -t my_table -f sample.csv

It is processed at high speed by batch write.

Ignore option

If there is an error such as a key schema mismatch, you can give the option to ignore the CSV record.

$ dynamodb-csv -i -t my_table -f sample.csv --ignore

my_table csv imported 299 items and 1 error items

No batch write is done when this option is used.

Import options

By default, if CSV has an empty value, it will be set to empty.
There are options to convert this to Null or not to set the attribute itself.

[IMPORT_OPTION]
ConvertBlankToNullAttrs=NullValue,JsonValue
ConvertBlankToDropAttrs=DecimalValue

Export table to CSV

You will also need to expand the same data to multiple tables.
Therefore, data can be exported.
As with import, you need a CSV spec file.

Table truncate

Also, since you may want to erase unnecessary data during the import experiment, we have prepared a command to discard it.
