Docker Dynamodb error: Nodejs app with dynamodb doesn't work in docker, but works without it
I made a simple single table nodejs app in dynamodb. I am using Vogels as a data wrapper. It works pretty well if I don't close it.
I tried to start docker the way I run my application in development mode. It didn't work either.
Here is the code I am using to create the tables:
module.exports = function () {
const vogels = require('vogels');
// const AWS= require('aws-sdk');
const Lr = require("../api/models/LRModel");
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === "test") {
AWS.config.update({ accessKeyId: "myKeyId", secretAccessKey: "secretKey", region: "us-west-2" });
vogels.dynamoDriver(new AWS.DynamoDB({ endpoint: 'http://localhost:8000' }));
} else {
console.log("AWS access key=", process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY, "AWS Secret key=", process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY, "AWS Region =", process.env.AWS_REGION);
vogels.AWS.config.update({accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY, secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY, region: process.env.AWS_REGION, sslEnabled: false });
}
vogels.createTables({
'lrs': {readCapacity: 10, writeCapacity: 10}
}, function(err) {
if (err) {
console.log('Error creating tables: ', err);
} else {
console.log('Tables have been created');
}
});
}
Here is the error I am getting in docker:
server-0 | Error creating tables: { TimeoutError: Missing credentials in config

One thing that I clearly notice when I run it WITHOUT proves that the dynamodb endpoint is an http endpoint . Here is the endpoint, registered from https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js/blob/8904e9c730fb2fccf9d201f66266a6e2cbb75348/lib/http/node.js
(line 13).
server-0 | Endpoint {
server-0 | protocol: 'https:',
server-0 | host: 'dynamodb.us-west-1.amazonaws.com',
server-0 | port: 443,
server-0 | hostname: 'dynamodb.us-west-1.amazonaws.com',
server-0 | pathname: '/',
server-0 | path: '/',
server-0 | href: 'https://dynamodb.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/',
server-0 | constructor: { [Function: Endpoint] __super__: [Function: Object] } }
When I run it WITH docker conclude that dynamodb endpoint is httpS endpoint . Here is the endpoint, registered from https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js/blob/8904e9c730fb2fccf9d201f66266a6e2cbb75348/lib/http/node.js
(line 13).
server-0 | Endpoint {
server-0 | protocol: 'http:',
server-0 | host: '169.254.169.254',
server-0 | port: 80,
server-0 | hostname: '169.254.169.254',
server-0 | pathname: '/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/',
server-0 | path: '/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/',
server-0 | href: 'http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/' }
Where am I going wrong?

When I run my application without using docker, the credentials are fetched from /.aws/credentials
. I was under the impression that this was happening throughvogels.AWS.config.update({accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY, secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY, region: process.env.AWS_REGION, sslEnabled: false });
I registered the parameters in an update function in config.js aws-sdk
and found this with a friend's input.
It seems that the culprit is that the table definition should be after the configuration update. I have brought this line const Lr = require("../api/models/LRModel");
below config.update and it works well now
