When I am trying to load AWS credentials in my project it gives back an error.
When using credentials in plain text everything works good but when I am trying to use environment variables it's not working.
Error message. :
Missing credentials in config, if using AWS_CONFIG_FILE, set AWS_SDK_LOAD_CONFIG=1
Here is my tried code :
const AWS = require('aws-sdk');
const SESConfig = {
apiVersion: "2010-12-01",
accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY,
accessSecretKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY,
region: "us-east-1"
}
AWS.config.update(SESConfig);
var sns = new AWS.SNS()
var sns = new AWS.SNS();
function sendSMS(to_number, message, cb) {
sns.publish({
Message: message,
Subject: 'Admin',
PhoneNumber:to_number
}, cb);
}
// Example
const PhoneNumberArray = ['any mobile number']
PhoneNumberArray.forEach(number => {
sendSMS(number, "Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.", (err, result)=>{
console.log("RESULTS: ",err,result)
})
})
By default, the SDK detects AWS credentials set in your environment and uses them to sign requests to AWS. That way you don’t need to manage credentials in your applications.
Unix:
$ export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your_key_id"
$ export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="your_secret_key"
Windows:
> set AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your_key_id"
> set AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="your_secret_key"
you can also add $ export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN='your_token' (optional)
See aws-sdk for more details.
or create a ~/.aws/credentials file and add:
[default]
aws_access_key_id = <YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID>
aws_secret_access_key = <YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY>
See aws for more details.
I noticed that you are setting your accessKeyId and secretAccessKey to the same environment variable.
const SESConfig = {
apiVersion: "2010-12-01",
accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY, // should be: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_ID
secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY,
region: "us-east-1"
}
These are supplied as separate values by aws and should be represented by two separate environment variables. Maybe this is your issue?
You can try create an AWS_PROFILE with the credentials if you have the AWS CLI installed.
$ aws configure --profile testuser
AWS Access Key ID [None]: 1234
AWS Secret Access Key [None]: 1234
Default region name [None]: us-east-1
Default output format [None]: text
After that you can set the AWS_PROFILE as environment variable.
Linux / Mac
export AWS_PROFILE=testuser
Windows
setx AWS_PROFILE testuser
After that you should be able to run your program and AWS will get the credentials from your profile. This way you don't have to save your credentials in .ENV. If you do, remember to add it in .gitignore.
