This sample application shows how to use GraphQL to build an application that a user can login to the system, then upload and download photos which are private to them. The sample is written in React and uses AWS AppSync, Amazon Cognito, Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon S3 as well as the AWS Mobile CLI.
npm install -g awsmobile-cli
awsmobile configure aws
Clone this repo locally.
Go to the photo-client folder inside of the cloned repo.
/photo-client
Run awsmobile init with default settings
obile init --yes
Configure Amazon Cognito User Pool as authentication type
obile appsync configure
Select AMAZON_COGNITO_USER_POOLS
Confirm defaults
Update changes
obile push
Run your app
obile run
The awsmobile-cli will create your Amazon Cognito User Pool and Identity Pool, an Amazon S3 bucket with private directories to store each user's photo and an AWS AppSync API that uses Amazon DynamoDB to store data.
The sample uses AWS Amplify to perform the Sign-Up and Sign-In flows with a Higher Order Component.
If the application runs successfully you should be able to enter the name of a photo, choose a file and then press Add photo. This will make a GraphQL call to enter the record into the database and simultaneously upload the object to S3. An immediate fetch of the record will then be at the bottom of the screen.
