DynamoDB Dynomite Migrations Deletion Protection Enabled
Important: These docs are for the outdated Jets 5 versions and below. For the latest Jets docs: docs.rubyonjets.com
By default, the table deletion protection is enabled for only JETS_ENV=production. If you want to enable deletion protection, you can do it per migration or set the default config.
Migration Deletion Protection
class CreatePosts < Dynomite::Migration
def up
create_table :posts do |t|
t.partition_key :id
t.add_gsi :title
t.deletion_protection_enabled true
end
end
end
Deletion Protection Config
By default, the table deletion protection is enabled for only JETS_ENV=production. You can always enable it like so.
config/initializers/dynomite.rb
Dynomite.configure do |config|
config.migration.deletion_protection_enabled = true
end
Delete Tables by Disabling Deletion Protection
To delete tables with deletion protection, you must disable it first. Here’s an example:
aws dynamodb update-table --table-name demo-dev_products --no-deletion-protection-enabled
aws dynamodb delete-table --table-name demo-dev_products
If you’re developing migrations and deleting tables, here are useful commands to remove the migration version. Replace: 20230813211911, with your actual value.
aws dynamodb delete-item --table-name demo-dev_schema_migrations --key '{"version":{"S":"20230813211911"}}'
