+ The `connection` generator wires a <Link path="guides/ts-smithy-api">Smithy API</Link> to a <Link path="guides/ts-dynamodb">DynamoDB</Link> project, configuring local development so both start together automatically.
16
+
17
+ ## Prerequisites
18
+
19
+ Before using this generator, ensure you have:
20
+
21
+ 1. A <Link path="guides/ts-smithy-api">`ts#smithy-api`</Link> project (TypeScript backend)
22
+ 2. A <Link path="guides/ts-dynamodb">`ts#dynamodb`</Link> project
23
+
24
+ ## Usage
25
+
26
+ ### Run the Generator
27
+
28
+ <RunGenerator generator="connection" />
29
+
30
+ Select your Smithy API backend project as the source and your DynamoDB project as the target.
31
+
32
+ ### Options
33
+
34
+ <GeneratorParameters generator="connection" />
35

36
+ ## Generator Output
37
+
38
+ The generator updates your Smithy API's `project.json` to add a dependency from its `serve-local` target to the DynamoDB project's `serve-local` target. No source files are modified.
39
+
40
+ ## Using DynamoDB in Operations
41
+
42
+ Import entity factories from the DynamoDB package and use them inside your operation implementations:
43
+
44
+ ```ts title="packages/api/src/operations/list-examples.ts"
45
+ import { createExampleEntity } from ':my-scope/my-table';
46

76
+ ## Local Development
77
+
78
+ ### Starting Local DynamoDB
79
+
80
+ The generator configures a `serve-local` target that starts a [DynamoDB Local](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/DynamoDBLocal.html) instance and creates the table:
81
+
82
+ <NxCommands commands={['run <project-name>:serve-local']} />
83
+
84
+ This automatically:
85
+ 1. Pulls the DynamoDB Local image (`pull-image` target)
86
+ 2. Starts a container
87
+ 3. Creates a local table with pre-defined indexes
88
+
89
+ ### Data Modelling
90
+
91
+ The generated project uses [ElectroDB](https://electrodb.dev/) for type-safe entity modelling on a single DynamoDB table. Add or update entity files under `src/entities/`, using the generated example entity as a starting point.
92
+
93
+ Example entity definition:
94
+
95
+ ```ts title="packages/my-table/src/entities/example.ts"
96
+ import { Entity } from 'electrodb';
97
+ import { getDynamoDBClient, resolveTableName } from '../client.js';
98
+
99
+ export const createExampleEntity = async () =>
100
+ new Entity(
101
+ {
102
+ model: {
103
+ entity: 'example',
104
+ version: '1',
105
+ service: 'MyTable',
106
+ },
107
+ attributes: {
108
+ id: {
109
+ type: 'string',
110
+ required: true,
111
+ },
112
+ createdAt: {
113
+ type: 'string',
114
+ required: true,
115
+ default: () => new Date().toISOString(),
116
+ readOnly: true,
117
+ },
118
+ updatedAt: {
119
+ type: 'string',
120
+ required: true,
121
+ default: () => new Date().toISOString(),
122
+ watch: '*',
123
+ set: () => new Date().toISOString(),
124
+ },
125
+ },
126
+ indexes: {
127
+ primary: {
128
+ pk: {
129
+ field: 'pk',
130
+ composite: ['id'],
131
+ },
132
+ sk: {
133
+ field: 'sk',
134
+ composite: [],
135
+ },
136
+ },
137
+ },
138
+ },
139
+ { client: getDynamoDBClient(), table: await resolveTableName() },
140
+ );
141
+ ```
142
+
143
+ For more details, see the [ElectroDB entity documentation](https://electrodb.dev/en/modeling/entities/).
144
+
145
+ ### Using the DynamoDB Client
146
+
147
+ The generated `src/client.ts` exports two key utilities:
148
+
149
+ - `getDynamoDBClient()` — returns a cached singleton `DynamoDBClient`. When `SERVE_LOCAL=true`, connects to the local DynamoDB Local instance; otherwise creates an AWS client using the default credential chain.
150
+ - `resolveTableName()` — returns the DynamoDB table name. When `SERVE_LOCAL=true`, returns the local table name constant; otherwise fetches the name from AWS AppConfig using the `RUNTIME_CONFIG_APP_ID` environment variable and caches it for subsequent calls.
151
+
152
+ ### Stopping Local DynamoDB
153
+
154
+ Stopping `serve-local` (e.g. with `Ctrl+C`) automatically removes the DynamoDB Local container, but preserves the named volume so your data persists across restarts.
155
+
156
+ :::caution[Windows]
157
+ Due to limitations with signal handling on Windows, the container is not automatically removed when `serve-local` is stopped. You will need to remove it manually:
158
+
159
+ ```bash
160
+ <engine> rm -f <scope>-dynamodb
161
+ ```
162
+
163
+ Replace `<engine>` with your container engine (`docker` or `finch`) and `<scope>` with your Nx workspace scope (e.g. `proj`).
164
+ :::
165
+
166
+ ## Adding/Removing Global Secondary Indexes
167
+
168
+ Start by updating `GLOBAL_SECONDARY_INDEXES` in `src/gsi.ts` — this is the source of truth for your GSI definitions, and on the next `serve-local` run the script will automatically add or remove indexes on the local table to reflect the new list. When using CDK, these changes are also automatically reflected in your AWS table on the next deployment.
169
+
170
+ <OptionFilter when={{ iac: 'terraform' }}>
171
+ Unlike CDK, changes to `src/gsi.ts` are not automatically reflected in your Terraform module. You must also manually update your Terraform module to add or remove the corresponding GSI definitions before deploying.
172
+ </OptionFilter>
173
+
174
+ ## Connecting to the Table
175
+
176
+ In any TypeScript project, import entity factories from your DynamoDB package and use them directly:
177
+
178
+ ```ts
179
+ import { createExampleEntity } from ':my-scope/my-table';
180
+
181
+ const entity = await createExampleEntity();
182
+ const result = await entity.query.primary({ id: '123' }).go();
183
+ ```
184
+
185
+ :::note[Runtime config]
186
+ When running in AWS, `resolveTableName()` fetches the table name from AWS AppConfig using the `RUNTIME_CONFIG_APP_ID` environment variable. Projects built with this plugin (tRPC APIs, Smithy APIs, agents, MCP servers) already have this variable configured automatically. For other TypeScript projects, ensure `RUNTIME_CONFIG_APP_ID` is set in the runtime environment with the AppConfig application ID provisioned by your infrastructure. For more information, see the <Link path="guides/runtime-config">Runtime Configuration guide</Link>.
187
+ :::
188
+
189
+ ### Connection Generators
190
+
191
+ For specific project types, use the `connection` generator to automatically wire up local development dependencies so DynamoDB Local starts automatically alongside your project:
192
+
193
+ - <Link path="guides/connection/trpc-dynamodb">tRPC API → DynamoDB</Link>
194
+ - <Link path="guides/connection/smithy-dynamodb">Smithy API → DynamoDB</Link>
195
+ - <Link path="guides/connection/ts-agent-dynamodb">TypeScript Agent → DynamoDB</Link>
196
+ - <Link path="guides/connection/ts-mcp-server-dynamodb">MCP Server → DynamoDB</Link>
197
+
198
+ ## Deploying your Table
199
+
200
+ The DynamoDB generator creates CDK or Terraform infrastructure based on your selected `iac`.
201
+
202
+ <Infrastructure>
203
+ <Fragment slot="cdk">
204
+ The CDK construct is created in `common/constructs`. Example usage:
205
+
206
+ ```ts title="packages/infra/src/stacks/application-stack.ts"
207
+ import { MyTable } from ':my-scope/common-constructs';
208
+
209
+ export class ApplicationStack extends Stack {
210
+ constructor(scope: Construct, id: string, props?: StackProps) {
211
+ super(scope, id, props);
212
+
213
+ const table = new MyTable(this, 'Table');
214
+ }
215
+ }
216
+ ```
217
+
218
+ This provisions a DynamoDB table with:
219
+ - `pk` (partition key) and `sk` (sort key), both `String` type
220
+ - 2 Global Secondary Indexes by default, as defined in `src/gsi.ts`
221
+ - On-demand (`PAY_PER_REQUEST`) billing
222
+ - Customer-managed KMS encryption with automatic key rotation
223
