Serverless API using AWS Lambda (JAVA) and DynamoDB

This project contains source code and supporting files for a serverless application that you can deploy with the SAM CLI. It includes the following files and folders.

Tool Required before start of this project:

1. Maven
2. Java 11
3. SAM CLI (install)
4. AWS CLI (install)
5. POSTMAN Tool
6. OS: Windows 10 (can also be done on other Platforms if the Installation of AWS and SAM CLI's is done properly)
   

Note: Don't Forget to setup the AWS CLI using the AccessKey and SecretKey which you will get when an IAM USER is created in the AWS

Steps to make it run:

Step 1: Open the Powershell in the particular respective folder ordersapi
Step 2: Use the following build command

sam build

Step 3: Use the following deploy command to package and deploy your application to AWS

sam deploy

Note: Here we are not using the --guided in the command since the repo files already built and deployed.

Testing(If Deployed Successfully):

• Go to --> API Gateway in AWS --> ordersapi--> select Stages on the left side panel menu --> press on stages--> Copy the URL
• If Deployed Successfully you should see an GET and POST names in the Resources panel, as shown below:

{
    "id": "1",
    "itemName": "dog",
    "quantity": 100
}

Note: Make sure in Authorization select TYPE as AWS Signature in the drop-down menu and don't forget to put the AccessKey and SecretKey which you will get when an IAM USER is created in the AWS which is also required to setup the AWS CLI.

For GET Method:
