AppSync L2 constructs are missing some features which currently have to be hand-coded, namely support for DynamoDB queries.

This entails support for the query key conditions, as well as indexes and filters. We can (and should) start with the basics, with is support for key conditions.

Use Case

To avoid hand-coding AppSync resolvers which issue a DynamoDB query.

Proposed Solution

A possible API is:

${MappingTemplate.dynamoDbQuery(
  KeyCondition.eq("user", "user").and(
    KeyCondition.beginsWith("title", "startStr"))).renderTemplate()
