Example REST API with Play Framework and DynamoDB

This example is used to demonstrate a sample Play Framework application that has to integrate with DynamoDB and provide a REST API for the persons resource. This application has tests (Unit and Integration) and attempts to follow a functional style along with following good practices such as bulk-heading and using tools to enforce style and coverage.

• See ScalaJsonCombinators which cover using validation helpers

  • More specifically Validation with Reads

• The SBT DynamoDB plugin only works on Unix based operating systems

• In order to run code coverage reports, then use sbt clean coverage test followed by sbt coverageReport to avoid interference with Local DynamoDB. The overview is present in target/scoverage-report/index.html
