    • Method Detail

      • tableName

        UpdateItemRequest.Builder tableName​(String tableName)

        The name of the table containing the item to update. You can also provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the table in this parameter.

        Parameters:
        tableName - The name of the table containing the item to update. You can also provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the table in this parameter.
        Returns:
        Returns a reference to this object so that method calls can be chained together.

      • key

        UpdateItemRequest.Builder key​(Map<String,​AttributeValue> key)

        The primary key of the item to be updated. Each element consists of an attribute name and a value for that attribute.

      • updateExpression

        UpdateItemRequest.Builder updateExpression​(String updateExpression)

        An expression that defines one or more attributes to be updated, the action to be performed on them, and new values for them.

        The following action values are available for UpdateExpression.

        • SET - Adds one or more attributes and values to an item. If any of these attributes already exist, they are replaced by the new values. You can also use SET to add or subtract from an attribute that is of type Number. For example: SET myNum = myNum + :val

          SET supports the following functions:

          • if_not_exists (path, operand) - if the item does not contain an attribute at the specified path, then if_not_exists evaluates to operand; otherwise, it evaluates to path. You can use this function to avoid overwriting an attribute that may already be present in the item.

          • list_append (operand, operand) - evaluates to a list with a new element added to it. You can append the new element to the start or the end of the list by reversing the order of the operands.

          These function names are case-sensitive.

        • REMOVE - Removes one or more attributes from an item.

        • ADD - Adds the specified value to the item, if the attribute does not already exist. If the attribute does exist, then the behavior of ADD depends on the data type of the attribute:

          • If the existing attribute is a number, and if Value is also a number, then Value is mathematically added to the existing attribute. If Value is a negative number, then it is subtracted from the existing attribute.

            If you use ADD to increment or decrement a number value for an item that doesn't exist before the update, DynamoDB uses 0 as the initial value.

            Similarly, if you use ADD for an existing item to increment or decrement an attribute value that doesn't exist before the update, DynamoDB uses 0 as the initial value. For example, suppose that the item you want to update doesn't have an attribute named itemcount, but you decide to ADD the number 3 to this attribute anyway. DynamoDB will create the itemcount attribute, set its initial value to 0, and finally add 3 to it. The result will be a new itemcount attribute in the item, with a value of 3.

          • If the existing data type is a set and if Value is also a set, then Value is added to the existing set. For example, if the attribute value is the set [1,2], and the ADD action specified [3], then the final attribute value is [1,2,3]. An error occurs if an ADD action is specified for a set attribute and the attribute type specified does not match the existing set type.

            Both sets must have the same primitive data type. For example, if the existing data type is a set of strings, the Value must also be a set of strings.

          The ADD action only supports Number and set data types. In addition, ADD can only be used on top-level attributes, not nested attributes.

        • DELETE - Deletes an element from a set.

          If a set of values is specified, then those values are subtracted from the old set. For example, if the attribute value was the set [a,b,c] and the DELETE action specifies [a,c], then the final attribute value is [b]. Specifying an empty set is an error.

          The DELETE action only supports set data types. In addition, DELETE can only be used on top-level attributes, not nested attributes.

        You can have many actions in a single expression, such as the following: SET a=:value1, b=:value2 DELETE :value3, :value4, :value5

        For more information on update expressions, see Modifying Items and Attributes in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

        Parameters:
        updateExpression - An expression that defines one or more attributes to be updated, the action to be performed on them, and new values for them.

        The following action values are available for UpdateExpression.

        • SET - Adds one or more attributes and values to an item. If any of these attributes already exist, they are replaced by the new values. You can also use SET to add or subtract from an attribute that is of type Number. For example: SET myNum = myNum + :val

          SET supports the following functions:

        Returns:
        Returns a reference to this object so that method calls can be chained together.

      • conditionExpression

        UpdateItemRequest.Builder conditionExpression​(String conditionExpression)

        A condition that must be satisfied in order for a conditional update to succeed.

        An expression can contain any of the following:

        • Functions: attribute_exists | attribute_not_exists | attribute_type | contains | begins_with | size

          These function names are case-sensitive.

        • Comparison operators: = | <> | < | > | <= | >= | BETWEEN | IN

        • Logical operators: AND | OR | NOT

        For more information about condition expressions, see Specifying Conditions in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

        Parameters:
        conditionExpression - A condition that must be satisfied in order for a conditional update to succeed.

        An expression can contain any of the following:

        • Functions: attribute_exists | attribute_not_exists | attribute_type | contains | begins_with | size

          These function names are case-sensitive.

        • Comparison operators: = | <> | < | > | <= | >= | BETWEEN | IN

        • Logical operators: AND | OR | NOT

        For more information about condition expressions, see Specifying Conditions in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

        Returns:
        Returns a reference to this object so that method calls can be chained together.

      • expressionAttributeNames

        UpdateItemRequest.Builder expressionAttributeNames​(Map<String,​String> expressionAttributeNames)

        One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in an expression. The following are some use cases for using ExpressionAttributeNames:

        • To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word.

        • To create a placeholder for repeating occurrences of an attribute name in an expression.

        • To prevent special characters in an attribute name from being misinterpreted in an expression.

        Use the # character in an expression to dereference an attribute name. For example, consider the following attribute name:

        • Percentile

        The name of this attribute conflicts with a reserved word, so it cannot be used directly in an expression. (For the complete list of reserved words, see Reserved Words in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.) To work around this, you could specify the following for ExpressionAttributeNames:

        • {"#P":"Percentile"}

        You could then use this substitution in an expression, as in this example:

        • #P = :val

        Tokens that begin with the : character are expression attribute values, which are placeholders for the actual value at runtime.

        For more information about expression attribute names, see Specifying Item Attributes in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

        Parameters:
        expressionAttributeNames - One or more substitution tokens for attribute names in an expression. The following are some use cases for using ExpressionAttributeNames:

        • To access an attribute whose name conflicts with a DynamoDB reserved word.

        • To create a placeholder for repeating occurrences of an attribute name in an expression.

        • To prevent special characters in an attribute name from being misinterpreted in an expression.

        Use the # character in an expression to dereference an attribute name. For example, consider the following attribute name:

        • Percentile

        The name of this attribute conflicts with a reserved word, so it cannot be used directly in an expression.

        Returns:
        Returns a reference to this object so that method calls can be chained together.

      • expressionAttributeValues

        UpdateItemRequest.Builder expressionAttributeValues​(Map<String,​AttributeValue> expressionAttributeValues)

        One or more values that can be substituted in an expression.

        Use the : (colon) character in an expression to dereference an attribute value. For example, suppose that you wanted to check whether the value of the ProductStatus attribute was one of the following:

        Available | Backordered | Discontinued

        You would first need to specify ExpressionAttributeValues as follows:

        { ":avail":{"S":"Available"}, ":back":{"S":"Backordered"}, ":disc":{"S":"Discontinued"} }

        You could then use these values in an expression, such as this:

        ProductStatus IN (:avail, :back, :disc)

        For more information on expression attribute values, see Condition Expressions in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.

        Parameters:
        expressionAttributeValues - One or more values that can be substituted in an expression.

        Use the : (colon) character in an expression to dereference an attribute value. For example, suppose that you wanted to check whether the value of the ProductStatus attribute was one of the following:

        Available | Backordered | Discontinued

        You would first need to specify ExpressionAttributeValues as follows:

        { ":avail":{"S":"Available"}, ":back":{"S":"Backordered"}, ":disc":{"S":"Discontinued"} }
