Issue with body JSON parsing, on local machine, causing request to fail.

[ashoukr]

I am trying to locally test some IAM roles, however there is a problem regarding the json parsing function to read the body contents passed in the command. However, when I run it on Virtual Machine, it runs just fine. I am wondering if there are compatibility issues with this npm package and versions of node or other aws npm packages.

Using latest version: aws-api-gateway-cli-test@1.3.2

command I ran:

npx aws-api-gateway-cli-test
--username='REDACTED'
--password='REDACTED!'
--user-pool-id='REDACTED'
--app-client-id='REDACTED'
--cognito-region='us-east-1'
--identity-pool-id='REDACTED'
--invoke-url='REDACTED'
--api-gateway-region='us-east-1'
--path-template='/notes'
--method='POST'
--body='{"content":"hello world", "attachment":"hello.jpg"}'
