ReferenceError: navigator is not defined

[city41]

I am getting this error from inside the cognito module:

at CognitoUser.authenticateUserInternal (/var/app/current/node_modules/amazon-cognito-identity-js/lib/CognitoUser.js:383:19)

It looks like Amazon wrote these modules assuming they will run in a browser.

I worked around this by adding global.navigator = {} just before calling passport.use(new CognitoStrategy(...)). Not thrilled about adding a global, but it works.

Figured I'd post this here in case anyone else stumbles upon this.

To avoid this error, in the Devices section of the configuration console for your User Pool, you must select "No" for "Do you want to remember your user's devices?".

Using the passport-cognito library, the user only connects using your server-side nodejs "device".
