08/31/2021, 3:44 PMI have not tried it, one issue I found with these sorts of libraries is that they never have all the stuff you need and some pattern you are using won’t work 😂
I ended up doing my own thing that makes the code super complicated and fragile 😞 and I am also searching for a good solution (I will check out this repo also) because I want the code to be more readable and easier to maintain

08/31/2021, 4:22 PMI actually love dynamodb-toolbox it's been incredible at implementing singletable design
thdxr
08/31/2021, 4:22 PMonetable looks very similar so I want to try it out

08/31/2021, 4:23 PMOne thing I did not like about dynamo-toolbox is that you can’t use the same attributes with multiple gsi’s at least not without writing the core yourself
t
thdxr
08/31/2021, 4:23 PMI think you can
thdxr
08/31/2021, 4:23 PMYou can specify a default: attr => string function in your gsi that references whatever attributes you need

08/31/2021, 4:23 PMI did this recently

08/31/2021, 4:24 PMMy main issue with dynamo toolbox (and maybe I'm using it wrong) is that for

Kujtim Hoxha
08/31/2021, 4:24 PMYep and use the onUpdate to update them when something changes, but I would love to not have to write the logic inside of the default

thdxr
08/31/2021, 4:25 PMAnother thing about onetable (which is coming in v4 of toolbox) is it uses generics to create types for your schemas
thdxr
08/31/2021, 4:25 PMReally need that

Kujtim Hoxha
08/31/2021, 4:26 PMYes very much needed

09/02/2021, 11:22 AM@Thomas Ankcorn what did you end up using

09/02/2021, 11:23 AMI hope one day either prisma supports dynamodb, or somebody builds a good alternative where I can define my entities with a DSL and all the methods are strongly typed
Thomas Ankcorn
09/02/2021, 11:24 AMWe use dynomoose but are not happy with it for a few reasons, was trying a few alternatives but non stood out as good enough that switching was worth it as the project is massive

09/06/2021, 5:47 AMIs migration support of much value? That seems like a big differentiator over toolbox

10/09/2021, 7:31 PM@thdxr just wanted to report back on this, I migrated my old implementation to onetable and it is really working great for me

10/09/2021, 7:34 PMoo nice. I had a friend try it out as well and seemed to have good things to report. Think I'm gonna switch over
