This is kinda of important, so listen up!
You have to set a .env file on the root of the project having, at least, this parameters
region= ...
endpoint= ...
table= ...
access_key_id= ...
secret_access_key= ...
region corresponds to where you DynamoDB is located. You can found this on your Dynamo service, in the table overview.
endpoint is the database endpoint. If local, it will probably be something like http://localhost:8000. In case you are using a remote server, it will be related to your region.
table is the table name you want access to.
access_key_id and secret_access_key are, respectively, your access key id and you secret access key. To get this, you need to create your own credentials on AWS website
