this.client.send is not a function

[victorbianconi]

I've been trying to get around this error for a while but it keeps popping up, and S3 keeps billing me the requests even if no files are being uploaded.

This is my code:

require("dotenv").config();
const uniqid = require("uniqid");
const bucketName = process.env.AWS_POSTS_BUCKET_NAME;
const region = process.env.AWS_POSTS_BUCKET_REGION;
const accessKeyId = process.env.AWS_S3_UPLOADS_ACCESS_KEY;
const secretAccessKey = process.env.AWS_S3_UPLOADS_SECRET_KEY;

const aws = require("aws-sdk");
const multer = require("multer");
const multerS3 = require("multer-s3");

const s3 = new aws.S3({
  region,
  accessKeyId,
  secretAccessKey,
});

const path = uniqid();

exports.upload = multer({
  storage: multerS3({
    s3,
    bucket: bucketName,
    metadata: function (req, file, cb) {
      cb(null, { fieldName: path });
    },
    key: function (req, file, cb) {
      cb(null, path + "." + file.originalname.split(".")[1]);
    },
  }),
});

If I log the file it's being logged, but I get this.client.send is not a function every time and I don't see any new files on the bucket, but I realized I'm still being billed for the requests...

Which version of Multer S3 are you using? and which version of the AWS SDK?

[victorbianconi]

Multer S3: 3.00, AWS SDK: 2.1145.0

[LinusU]

Multer S3 2.x is compatible with AWS SDK 2.x, and Multer S3 3.x is compatible with AWS SDK 3.x.

Either upgrade AWS SDK, or downgrade Multer S3.
