update-table does nothing and returns no error message

[dkincaid]

Trying to use update-table and it is not doing anything nor returning any error messages. Am I doing something wrong or is there a defect here?

Here is the output from the REPL session:

Hi Dave, it looks like you might be using the wrong syntax.

Try (far/update-table creds "myTableName" {:read 200 :write 100}) instead of (far/update-table creds "myTableName" [200 100]).

That should execute a three stage step-up: {:read 60 :write 60}, {:read 120 :write 100}, {:read 200 :write 100}.

Let me know if you're still having any trouble! Cheers :-)

Aha! I knew it must be something I was doing wrong. Thank you. That, of course, works perfectly. Let me say that this is an extremely nice feature too. Takes away a lot of pain when increasing throughput.

Great, no problem. And appreciate the positive feedback :-)
