This commit puts AST validation on the execution path. This means updates get
validated prior to being executed. There were quite a few tests that were not
working against Amazon DDB. These tests I considered broken and as such this
commit adapts them such that they pass against Amazon DDB.
test_update_item_on_map()
=> One of the SET actions would try to set a nested element by specifying the nesting on the path
rather than by putting a map as a value for a non-existent key. This got changed.
test_item_size_is_under_400KB
=> Used the keyword "item" which DDB doesn't like. Change to cont in order to keep the same sizings.
=> Secondly the size error messages differs a bit depending whether it is part of the update or part
of a put_item. For an update it should be:
Item size to update has exceeded the maximum allowed size
otherwise it is
Item size has exceeded the maximum allowed size'
test_remove_top_level_attribute
=> Used a keyword item. Use ExpressionAttributeNames
test_update_item_double_nested_remove
=> Used keywords name & first. Migrated to non-deprecated API and use ExpressionAttributeNames

test_boto3_update_item_conditions_fail_because_expect_not_exists_by_compare_to_null
=> Were broken tests which had string literal instead of value placeholder
Part of structured approach for UpdateExpressions:
1) Expression gets parsed into a tokenlist (tokenized)
2) Tokenlist get transformed to expression tree (AST) -> This commit
3) The AST gets validated (full semantic correctness)
4) AST gets processed to perform the update
This commit uses the tokenlist to build an expression tree. This tree is not
yet used. Still it allows to raise additional Validation Exceptions which
previously were missed silently therefore it allows tests to catch these type of
ValidationException. For that reason DDB UpdateExpressions will be parsed
already. It also makes sure we won't break existing tests.
One of the existing tests had to be changed in order to still pass:
- test_dynamodb_table_with_range_key.test_update_item_with_expression
This test passed in a numeric literal which is not supported by DynamoDB
and with the current tokenization it would get the same error as in AWS
DynamoDB.
