Configurable AWS Lambda handler to index documents from DynamoDB Streams in Amazon Elasticsearch Service.
$ npm install --save dynamo2es-lambda @elastic/elasticsearch aws-sdk
dynamo2es-lambda
takes options
object and returns AWS Lambda handler (using alpha-lambda) that is ready to be connected to any DynamoDB Stream. options
object supports the following configuration options:
- index - { String } - Elasticsearch index to be used for all the documents; optional if
indexField
is provided - type - { String } - Elasticsearch type to be used for all the documents; optional if
typeField
is provided - [elasticsearch] - { Object }
- [client] - { Object } - an elasticsearch client instance (also works with the legacy 16.x client)
- [bulk] - { Object } - aside from general Elasticsearch configuration, you can use this field to pass additional parameters to bulk API
- [indexField] - { String | String[] } - field(s) to be used as an Elasticsearch index; if multiple fields are provided, values are concatenated using
separator
; required ifindexPrefix
field is present; can't be used together withindex
- [indexPrefix] - { String } - static string to be used as a prefix to form index together with
indexField
value - [typeField] - { String | String[] } - field(s) to be used as an Elasticsearch type; if multiple fields are provided, values are concatenated using
separator
; can't be used together withtype
- [idField] - { String | String[] } - field(s) to be used as an Elasticsearch id; if multiple fields are provided, values are concatenated using
separator
; can't be used together withidResolver
[defaults to document's key field(s)] - [idResolver] - { Function(record, old) } - optional function to format an Elasticsearch id; can't be used together with
idField
- [versionField] - { String } - field to be used as an external version for Elasticsearch document [by default no version check is performed]
- [versionResolver] - { Function(record, old) } - optional function to resolve a value to be used as an external version for Elasticsearch document
- [parentField] - { String } - field to be used as a parent id [no parent by default]
- [pickFields] - { String | String[] } - by default, the whole document is sent to Elasticsearch for indexing; if this option is provided, only field(s) specified would be sent
- [separator] - { String } - separator that is used to concatenate fields [defaults to
'.'
] - [beforeHook] - { Function(event, context) } - function to be called before any processing is done
- [afterHook] - { Function(event, context, result, meta) } - function to be called after all the processing is done;
meta
object contains parsed event data, action description and document that was indexed - [recordErrorHook] - { Function(event, context, error) } - function to be called when error occurs while processing specific record; if hook is not provided, error is thrown and processing stops
- [errorHook] - { Function(event, context, error) } - function to be called when error occurs; if hook is not provided, error is thrown
- [retryOptions] - { Object } - retry configuration in case Elasticsearch indexing fails (options description can be found here) [is not retried by default]
- [transformRecordHook] - { Function(record, old) } - optional function to perform custom data processing; accepts single record and old image; record is omitted if function does not return result; useful for reshaping/excluding document before sending it to Elasticsearch
Note:
context
object, available in hooks, includes [bunyan
context extension provided byalpha-lambda-bunyan
][alpha-lambda-bunyan-url]
Note:
afterHook
anderrorHook
support asynchronous operations when logic is wrapped into Promise

dynamo2es-lambda
returns raw result provided by the bulk API:
"took": 123,
"errors": false,
"items": [
{
"index": {
"_index": "08c312d0-9bd0-4a43-9748-9469f78e3ea0",
"_type": "type",
"_id": "f2f8cef2-031d-401f-a0c5-d6ce50a0bef3",
"_version": 0,
"result": "created",
"_shards": {
"total": 2,
"successful": 2,
"failed": 0
},
"created": true,
"status": 201
}
}
]
Note:
errors
property is set totrue
only in case of critical errors (e.g. version conflict), but not for non-critical ones (e.g. not found).
