Amazon DAX Client for Python
Project description
The Amazon DAX Client for Python is used to access Amazon DAX clusters from Python. It is nearly source-compatible with Boto3, with only a small change needed to the client initialization to use DAX instead of DynamoDB.
Installation
Install Amazon DAX Client using pip:
$ pip install amazon-dax-clientQuick Start
Boto3 has two different interfaces, the resource interface and the botocore client interface. Both are supported by the Amazon DAX client, with slightly different client initialization.
For the resource API, change from:
ddb = boto3.resource('dynamodb')to
dax = AmazonDaxClient.resource(
endpoint_url='dax.abcdef.us-east-1.amazon.com')All other boto3.resource() arguments are accepted.
For the botocore client API, change from:
session = botocore.session.get_session()
ddb = session.create_client('dynamodb', ...)to
session = botocore.session.get_session()
dax = AmazonDaxClient(session, ...)For Boto3 client API, change from:
ddb = boto3.client('dynamodb')to
dax = AmazonDaxClient(endpoint_url='dax.abcdef.us-east-1.amazon.com')The Boto3 and botocore client APIs are exactly the same.
Unsupported Features
The Amazon DAX client does not support table operations. Any table manipulation operations must use the regular Boto3 or botocore DynamoDB client.
Paginators are not currently supported for DAX.
Documentation
Once created, the interface is the same as the Boto3/botocore DynamoDB clients.
For acomplete example, follow the guide to create a sample app.
