Getting this error when adding this first two lines of code to my nodejs code

import { createRequire } from 'module';
const require = createRequire(import.meta.url)

const AWS = require('aws-sdk');
const s3 = new AWS.S3();

exports.handler = async (event) => {
    const bucketName = 'your-bucket-name';
    const objectKey = 'your-object-key';

    const params = {
        Bucket: bucketName,
        Key: objectKey
    };

    try {
        const data = await s3.getObject(params).promise();
        const objectContent = data.Body.toString('utf-8');
        console.log(objectContent);
        // Do something with the object content
    } catch (err) {
        console.log(err);
        // Handle error
    }
};

but if I remove that 2 lines I get error saying cannot find module 'aws-sdk'.

I want to get the content of the S3 object.

Try commonJS way

const { createRequire } = require('module');

instead of import { createRequire } from 'module';

** make sure that you have installed "module"
