TableDTO

Builds a Data Transfer Object of the Table.

A DTO is a JSON-stringifiable object representing the Table that can be transferred or saved for later use:

import { TableDTO } from 'dynamodb-toolbox/table/actions/dto'

const pokeTableDTO = PokeTable.build(TableDTO)

const pokeTableJSON = JSON.stringify(tableDTO)

On DTO retrieval, you can use the fromDTO util to re-create the original Table:

import { fromDTO } from 'dynamodb-toolbox/table/actions/fromDTO'

const pokeTableDTO = JSON.parse(pokeTableJSON)

// 👇 Has the same configuration as the original
const PokeTable = fromDTO(pokeTableDTO)

note

All TS types are lost in the process.
