Discussion on: How to fake AWS locally with LocalStack

[qiang]

Nice solution. However I met a problem , localhost:4572/ can show the bucket, but nothing on localhost:8055/

another problem is , when test the test-upload.js
it report below error :
"UnknownEndpoint: Inaccessible host: demo-bucket.localhost'. This service may not be available in theus-east-1' region."

I'm new novice of the S3 and docker, Could you point out how to set region for localhost s3 service.

Hi there!
I know that is 2020, but better later than never. So my solution for this problem was:
.env
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='default'
AWS_SECRET_KEY='default'
AWS_BUCKET_NAME='demo-bucket'
AWS_REGION='us-west-2'
AWS_S3_ENDPOINT='localhost:4572'

aws.js
const AWS = require('aws-sdk')
require('dotenv').config()

const credentials = {
accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_KEY,
}

const useLocal = process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production'

const bucketName = process.env.AWS_BUCKET_NAME

const s3client = new AWS.S3({
credentials,
endpoint: process.env.AWS_S3_ENDPOINT,
region: process.env.AWS_REGION,
s3ForcePathStyle: true
/**
* When working locally, we'll use the Localstack endpoints. This is the one for S3.
* A full list of endpoints for each service can be found in the Localstack docs.
*/
})

const uploadFile = async (data, name) =>
new Promise((resolve) => {
s3client.upload(
{
Bucket: bucketName,
/*
include the bucket name here. For some reason Localstack needs it.
see: github.com/localstack/localstack/i...
*/
Key: ${bucketName}/${name},
Body: data,
},
(err, response) => {
if (err) throw err
resolve(response)
},
)
})

module.exports = uploadFile

Hope that might be helpful for someone else in the future.
