I thought to run

sst build

in my CI build/test action, but I get this error:

Copy code

[Error at /none-platform-tombo] Need to perform AWS calls for account my-account, but no credentials have been configured

I don't think sst build needs access to AWS, this might be a quirk of how the CLI is structured right now - will let @Frank confirm

any

fromLookup()

calls in CDK makes an AWS SDK call if the value is not found in

cdk.context.json

A quick check would be, in CI, after

sst build

, do a

git diff

and see if the

cdk.context.json

is updated. If it is, commit the changes and the next build should not make any AWS calls.

Give it a try.

git diff has no output, so I guess no changes

Frank

01/04/2022, 9:16 AM

hmm.. can you also try

git status

Frank

01/04/2022, 9:16 AM

Just remembered

git diff

doesn’t show if it’s a file is newly added

nothing to commit, working tree clean

Frank

01/05/2022, 7:58 AM

hmm.. I just tried removing the

~/.aws

folder on my local machine, and was able to

sst build

no problem

Frank

Can you give that a try and see if u can

sst build

locally without an AWS profile?

ok yeah you're right, probably i'm calling something that is trying to import from AWS. is there some recommended way to make sure my stuff builds in CI?

sst cdk synth

fails with the same error for me so it sounds like more of a CDK issue for me not SST

Frank

Afaik CDK makes AWS calls when you use

fromXXXX

to look up things in ur AWS account. ie.

ec2.Vpc.fromLookup()

. Also, CDK tries to resolve the AWS account ID while building, but that won’t fail the build i think.

Frank

But yeah, I haven’t tried synthesizing the CDK app without AWS credentials.
