deleteTable method

Future<DeleteTableOutput> deleteTable({ required String tableName, })

The DeleteTable operation deletes a table and all of its items. After a DeleteTable request, the specified table is in the DELETING state until DynamoDB completes the deletion. If the table is in the ACTIVE state, you can delete it. If a table is in CREATING or UPDATING states, then DynamoDB returns a ResourceInUseException. If the specified table does not exist, DynamoDB returns a ResourceNotFoundException. If table is already in the DELETING state, no error is returned. When you delete a table, any indexes on that table are also deleted.

If you have DynamoDB Streams enabled on the table, then the corresponding stream on that table goes into the DISABLED state, and the stream is automatically deleted after 24 hours.

Use the DescribeTable action to check the status of the table.

May throw ResourceInUseException. May throw ResourceNotFoundException. May throw LimitExceededException. May throw InternalServerError.

Parameter tableName : The name of the table to delete.

Implementation

Future<DeleteTableOutput> deleteTable({
  required String tableName,
}) async {
  ArgumentError.checkNotNull(tableName, 'tableName');
  _s.validateStringLength(
    'tableName',
    tableName,
    3,
    255,
    isRequired: true,
  );
  final headers = <String, String>{
    'Content-Type': 'application/x-amz-json-1.0',
    'X-Amz-Target': 'DynamoDB_20120810.DeleteTable'
  };
  final jsonResponse = await _protocol.send(
    method: 'POST',
    requestUri: '/',
    exceptionFnMap: _exceptionFns,
    // TODO queryParams
    headers: headers,
    payload: {
      'TableName': tableName,
    },
  );

  return DeleteTableOutput.fromJson(jsonResponse.body);
