Net.Cache.DynamoDb 1.2.0

Net.Cache.DynamoDb

Overview

Net.Cache.DynamoDb extends the capabilities of the Net.Cache library by integrating with Amazon DynamoDB. This integration allows for the use of DynamoDB as a distributed, scalable, and highly available backend for caching operations.

Features

• DynamoDB Integration: Leverages Amazon DynamoDB for storing and retrieving cache data.
• Easy Configuration: Offers various initialization methods for the DynamoDB client.
• Seamless Compatibility: Fully compatible with the Net.Cache library, providing DynamoDB as a storage option.

Getting Started

Installation

Install Net.Cache.DynamoDb via NuGet along with Net.Cache

Defining DynamoDB Models

To use DynamoDbStorageProvider, you need to define models representing your DynamoDB tables:

using Amazon.DynamoDBv2.DataModel;

[DynamoDBTable("MyTableName")]
public class MyTable
{
    [DynamoDBHashKey] // Partition key
    public string Id { get; set; }

    [DynamoDBProperty("MyCustomNameIfNeeded")] // Optional custom property name
    public string SomeProperty { get; set; }

    // Other properties as needed
}

Usage

Initializing DynamoDbStorageProvider

Create an instance of DynamoDbStorageProvider<TKey, TValue> using one of the following methods:

1. Default Initialization:

var dynamoDbProvider = new DynamoDbStorageProvider<int, MyTable>();

2. Custom DynamoDB Client:

var customClient = new AmazonDynamoDBClient(...);
var dynamoDbProvider = new DynamoDbStorageProvider<int, MyTable>(customClient);

3. Custom DynamoDB Context:

var customContext = new DynamoDBContext(customClient);
var dynamoDbProvider = new DynamoDbStorageProvider<int, MyTable>(customContext);

Integrating with Net.Cache

var cache = new CacheProvider<int, MyTable>(dynamoDbProvider);

Storing and Retrieving Data

// Store a value
cache.Store(1, new MyTable { Id = "1", SomeProperty = "Value" });

// Retrieve a value
if (cache.TryGetValue(1, out var myTableInstance)) {
    // Use myTableInstance
}
