Error while running a Node js program

Question

I have written a node js program which contained a method called AWS.config.update(). When I tried to run it on terminal, I got an error:

Error: Cannot find module 'aws-sdk'

Answer 1

Go to the folder where your node application is installed:

cd location/to/your/folder

And then run this to install the aws-sdk:

npm install aws-sdk

Answer 2

After npm install aws-sdk be sure that your package.json specifies the exact version of the new dependency, such as:

"dependencies": {
    "aws-sdk": "2.4.12",
