如何在swift中使用filterExpression执行DynamoDB扫描

我有一个表,它将有关组(GroupID,Members,Creator,LastAccessed,GroupName等)的信息存储为单独的行。每个组都有一个唯一标识符(GroupID)作为其哈希(主键)。它们还有一个名为GroupName的属性。我有一个搜索框,用户输入部分组名称。我想在表上执行扫描并返回以用户输入开头的所有组。这是我到目前为止所拥有的......

func searchForGroupsWithName(groupName: String) {

    self.queryInProgress = true

    let cond = AWSDynamoDBCondition()
    let v1    = AWSDynamoDBAttributeValue();
    v1.S = groupName

    cond.comparisonOperator = AWSDynamoDBComparisonOperator.BeginsWith
    cond.attributeValueList = [ v1 ]

    let exp = AWSDynamoDBScanExpression()

    //I only want to return the GroupName and GroupID.
    //I think this should be ["GroupID", "GroupName"], but it requires a string
    exp.projectionExpression = ??????????

    //I am not sure how to incorporate cond with this.
    exp.filterExpression = ??????????

    dynamoDBObjectMapper.scan(GroupTableRow.self, expression: exp).continueWithBlock({ (task:AWSTask!) -> AnyObject! in

        if task.result != nil {
            let paginatedOutput = task.result as! AWSDynamoDBPaginatedOutput

            for item in paginatedOutput.items as! [GroupTableRow] {
                self.searchBarResults.append(item)
            }

            if ((task.error) != nil) {
                print("Error: \(task.error)")
            }
            self.queryInProgress = false
            return nil
        }
        self.queryInProgress = false
        return nil
    })
}

在获得WestonE的帮助后,我修复了我的代码并找到了一个有效的例子。我已将其粘贴在下面,以便其他需要类似内容的人

func searchForGroupsWithName(groupName: String) {

    self.queryInProgress = true

    let lowercaseGroupName = groupName.lowercaseString

    let scanExpression = AWSDynamoDBScanExpression()

    //Specify we want to only return groups whose name contains our search
    scanExpression.filterExpression = "contains(LowercaseName, :LowercaseGroupName)"

    //Create a scan expression to state what attributes we want to return
    scanExpression.projectionExpression = "GroupID, GroupName, LowercaseName"

    //Define our variable in the filter expression as our lowercased user input
    scanExpression.expressionAttributeValues = [":LowercaseGroupName" : lowercaseGroupName]

    dynamoDBObjectMapper.scan(GroupTableRow.self, expression: scanExpression).continueWithBlock({ (task:AWSTask!) -> AnyObject! in

        if task.result != nil {
            let paginatedOutput = task.result as! AWSDynamoDBPaginatedOutput

            //use the results
            for item in paginatedOutput.items as! [GroupTableRow] {

            }

            if ((task.error) != nil) {
                print("Error: \(task.error)")
            }
            self.queryInProgress = false
            return nil

        }

        self.queryInProgress = false
        return nil
        })
}

projectionExpression应该是单个逗号分隔的字符串[“GroupID”,“GroupName”] => “GroupID,GroupName”

filterExpression也是一个字符串,它的文档是http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/QueryAndScan.html#FilteringResults。在你的情况下,我认为表达式将是“begin_with(groupName,BeginningCharacters)”但你可能需要试验一下。
