Allow custom endpoints #237

aintgoin2goa commented 5 years ago

In our project we use [https://hub.docker.com/r/amazon/dynamodb-local/](dynamodb local) for testing and development purposes. In order to do this you need to change use the endpoint option when instantiating DynamnoDB like so:

const dynamo = new AWS.DynamoDB({ endpoint: 'my.endpoint' });

Perhaps we could add something to updateDynamoEasyConfig to add options to be passing in to the DynamoDB constructor? It looks like this is only called in a couple of places.

Happy to fork and give it a go if you like. Also, thanks for building this awesome library, it makes querying Dynamo so much more enjoyable than using the AWS SDK!

Hi @aintgoin2goa

I think this option does not belong to dynamoEasyConfig. But when instantiating a DynamoStore or a multi-model request like TransactGetRequest you can always provide an instance of AWS.DynamoDB as optional argument.

const dynamo = new AWS.DynamoDB({ endpoint: 'my.endpoint' });
const myModelStore = new DynamoStore(MyModel, dynamo)
const myTransactGet = new TransactGet(dynamo)

hope this helps.
