Where is the v2 equivalent of the com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.document.Item.toJSON() fonctionality from the v1 sdk

[lestephane]

It used to be possible to call toJSON() on a dynamodb item with the v1 SDK.
I need some guidance on how this is to be achieved in the v2 SDK.

Searching for toJSON in the migration guide and the issues here did not yield any result.

Here is the method in question from the v1 SDK

package com.amazonaws.services.dynamodbv2.document;
...
public class Item {
...
    /**
     * Returns this item as a JSON string.  Note all binary data will become
     * base-64 encoded in the resultant string.
     */
    public String toJSON() {
        return Jackson.toJsonString(this.attributes);
    }

HI @lestephane, the Dynamo DB Document library is not yet available in V2. Work on the the library is currently in progress, and can be tracked here in #35 (#36 is the original Document-specific ticket but the work is being combined with #35). There is an early MVP preview available in the
dynamodb-enhanced branch but I don't believe this specific functionality is implemented there: https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-java-v2/blob/dynamodb-enhanced/services-custom/dynamodb-enhanced/README.md

Tracking this as part of #35
