Aws-sdk-js: TypeError: this.extractCredentials is not a function

[babakness]

Hi, I'm getting this error in Node, which stop at this line

aws.Config({ 
  accessKeyId: 'FOO', 
  secretAccessKey: 'BAR', 
  region: 'us-west-2'
})

TypeError: this.extractCredentials is not a function at Object.Config (aws-sdk/lib/config.js:273:20)

Any suggestions?

I'm testing this:

var config = new AWS.Config({
  accessKeyId: 'AKID', secretAccessKey: 'SECRET', region: 'us-west-2'
});

From the docs:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/Config.html#constructor-property

@babakness
What version of the SDK are you using?
I just tested your exact code with the latest version and it is not throwing an error:

var AWS = require('aws-sdk');
var config = new AWS.Config({
  accessKeyId: 'AKID', secretAccessKey: 'SECRET', region: 'us-west-2'
});

Do you have any dependencies or code that might be modifying the SDK?

I have this error too, I'm using the aws-sdk version: ^2.45.0

@ramonmulia
Can you share a code sample that I can reproduce the error with? Running the above sample, I'm unable to reproduce.

I used this library and solved my problem:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/aws-config

@joncursi
Can you share a code sample showing how you're configuring the SDK?

[joncursi]

I don't have the exact code since I eventually got it to work... I was trying to set a global config via AWS.config = { ... } which turned the error. I opted to set a local config on the S3 object instead:

const AWS_S3 = new AWS.S3({
  accessKeyId: AWS_ACCESS_ID,
  region: 'us-east-1',
  secretAccessKey: AWS_ACCESS_SECRET,
});

[johnelliott]

I have the same issue, same line of code as the stack trace @joncursi mentioned.

Here's how I'm making the call:

const awsConfig = {
  region: process.env.AWS_REGION,
  accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
  secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
  logger: console.log
};
const config = AWS.Config(awsConfig);

[jarondl]

I ran into this too, and the problem is that you must run the constructor explicitly with new.
@johnelliott , use:

const config = new AWS.Config(awsConfig);
//instead of 
const config = AWS.Config(awsConfig);

[arnold-parge]

AWS.config = {
    region: '****,
    accessKeyId: '****',
    secretAccessKey: '****'
};

This solved my problem! 🕺

It looks like this was resolved. Let us know if you have followup questions.
