Short example of node.js Express method to POST resource data into DynamoDB. This was just a snippet for my blog to illustrate the type of transformation DynamoDB requires. Assume the data has already been validated, and DynamoDB connection established.

express-dynamodb-post

resource.post (req, res) ->
  params =
    TableName: 'TableName'
    Item:
      'id':
        S: req.body.id
      'color':
        S: req.body.color
      'tags':
        SS: req.body.tags
      'count':
        N: req.body.count
  ddb.client.putItem params, (error, data) ->
    if !error?
      res.end 201
