This AWS Solutions Konstruk implements the AWS Lambda function and Amazon DynamoDB table with the least privileged permissions.

Here is a minimal deployable pattern definition:

```javascript
const { LambdaToDynamoDBProps,  LambdaToDynamoDB } = require('@aws-solutions-konstruk/aws-lambda-dynamodb');

const props: LambdaToDynamoDBProps = {
    deployLambda: true,
    lambdaFunctionProps: {
        code: lambda.Code.asset(`${__dirname}/lambda`),
        runtime: lambda.Runtime.NODEJS_12_X,
        handler: 'index.handler'
    },
};

new LambdaToDynamoDB(stack, 'test-lambda-dynamodb-stack', props);

```

## Initializer

```text
new LambdaToDynamoDB(scope: Construct, id: string, props: LambdaToDynamoDBProps);
```

*Parameters*

* scope [`Construct`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_core.Construct.html)
* id `string`
* props [`LambdaToDynamoDBProps`](#pattern-construct-props)

## Pattern Construct Props

| **Name**     | **Type**        | **Description** |
|:-------------|:----------------|-----------------|
|deployLambda|`boolean`|Whether to create a new Lambda function or use an existing Lambda function|
|existingLambdaObj?|[`lambda.Function`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-lambda.Function.html)|Existing instance of Lambda Function object|
|lambdaFunctionProps?|[`lambda.FunctionProps`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-lambda.FunctionProps.html)|Optional user provided props to override the default props for Lambda function|
|dynamoTableProps|[`dynamodb.TableProps`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-dynamodb.TableProps.html)|Optional user provided props to override the default props for DynamoDB Table|

## Pattern Properties

| **Name**     | **Type**        | **Description** |
|:-------------|:----------------|-----------------|
|lambdaFunction()|[`lambda.Function`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-lambda.Function.html)|Returns an instance of lambda.Function created by the construct|
|dynamoTable()|[`dynamodb.Table`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cdk/api/latest/docs/@aws-cdk_aws-dynamodb.Table.html)|Returns an instance of dynamodb.Table created by the construct|
