Official/native support for dynamodb-data-mapper
ajhool opened this issue · comments
There is an aws project called DynamoDB Data Mapper JS (https://github.com/awslabs/dynamodb-data-mapper-js). It's been very useful for interfacing between javascript and dynamo. It sits at 11,500 weekly downloads. However, it looks like the repo is not being adequately maintained and some breaking issues are starting to emerge. There is a popular, unanswered issue asking if the repo is dead: awslabs/dynamodb-data-mapper-js#138
Could the package be moved into the official aws-sdk instead of residing in a separate repo? I'm not sure why it was placed in a separate repo to begin with as it is an incredibly simple way to interface between javascript and Dynamo. The separate annotations package is also fantastic.
Hey @ajhool,
The awslabs org is used for projects that are less 'prime-support'. We just got the ownership for that library recently. We will start to look into highly requested bug report because of the our limited bandwidth.

Yes, we have plan to move the library to V3 after it comes to offictial.
Thank you for your response and that is great news about v3! I can close this issue or leave it open until the v3 release, however you all prefer to manage issues.
