4.1. Query the Data

awstin.dynamodb.Table.query() takes a condition expression for the query, and optionally a post-query scan expression (which is much more permissive).

from models import Movie

from awstin.dynamodb import DynamoDB


def query_movies(year):
    dynamodb = DynamoDB()
    table = dynamodb[Movie]

    return table.query(Movie.year == year)


if __name__ == "__main__":
    query_year = 1985
    print(f"Movies from {query_year}")
    movies = query_movies(query_year)
    for movie in movies:
        print(movie.year, ": ", movie.title)
