condition_expression
instance-attribute
¶
condition_expression: NotRequired[ConditionExpression]
A condition that must be satisfied in order for a conditional DeleteItem to succeed.
An expression can contain any of the following:
-
Functions:
attribute_exists | attribute_not_exists | attribute_type | contains | begins_with | sizeThese function names are case-sensitive.
-
Comparison operators:
= | <> | < | > | <= | >= | BETWEEN | IN -
Logical operators:
AND | OR | NOT
For more information about condition expressions, see Condition Expressions in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
conditional_operator
instance-attribute
¶
conditional_operator: NotRequired[ConditionalOperator]
This is a legacy parameter. Use ConditionExpression instead. For more information, see ConditionalOperator in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
expected
instance-attribute
¶
expected: NotRequired[ExpectedAttributeMap]
This is a legacy parameter. Use ConditionExpression instead. For more information, see Expected in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
expression_attribute_names
instance-attribute
¶
expression_attribute_names: NotRequired[ExpressionAttributeNameMap]
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 on expression attribute names, see Specifying Item Attributes in the Amazon DynamoDB Developer Guide.
expression_attribute_values
instance-attribute
¶
expression_attribute_values: NotRequired[ExpressionAttributeValueMap]
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.
key
instance-attribute
¶
key: Key
A map of attribute names to AttributeValue objects, representing the primary key of the item to delete.
For the primary key, you must provide all of the key attributes. For example, with a simple primary key, you only need to provide a value for the partition key. For a composite primary key, you must provide values for both the partition key and the sort key.
return_consumed_capacity
instance-attribute
¶
return_consumed_capacity: NotRequired[ReturnConsumedCapacity]
return_item_collection_metrics
instance-attribute
¶
return_item_collection_metrics: NotRequired[ReturnItemCollectionMetrics]
Determines whether item collection metrics are returned. If set to SIZE, the response includes statistics about item collections, if any, that were modified during the operation are returned in the response. If set to NONE (the default), no statistics are returned.
return_values
instance-attribute
¶
return_values: NotRequired[ReturnValue]
Use ReturnValues if you want to get the item attributes as they appeared before they were deleted. For DeleteItem, the valid values are:
-
NONE- IfReturnValuesis not specified, or if its value isNONE, then nothing is returned. (This setting is the default forReturnValues.) -
ALL_OLD- The content of the old item is returned.
There is no additional cost associated with requesting a return value aside from the small network and processing overhead of receiving a larger response. No read capacity units are consumed.
The ReturnValues parameter is used by several DynamoDB operations; however, DeleteItem does not recognize any values other than NONE or ALL_OLD.
return_values_on_condition_check_failure
instance-attribute
¶
return_values_on_condition_check_failure: NotRequired[
ReturnValuesOnConditionCheckFailure
]
An optional parameter that returns the item attributes for a DeleteItem operation that failed a condition check.
There is no additional cost associated with requesting a return value aside from the small network and processing overhead of receiving a larger response. No read capacity units are consumed.
