In the
getTableAttributes
method, we have not specified or defined the
Pages
and
Language
attributes.
Tip
While creating the table, we must specify the primary key and index attributes; all other
optional attributes can be specified during item insertion. The
Pages
and
Language
at-
tributes, being non-key and non-index attributes, are not part of
AttributeDefini-
tion
in the
getTableAttributes
method.
There are two more local functions invoked to create indexes, which we will see in the
next chapter.
