error "could not load the shared library" api google vms

Question

I'm doing integration with the google api to manage the vms, the code used:

const {google} = require('googleapis');
const compute = google.compute('v1');
    async function listVMs() {
            const authClient = await google.auth.getClient({
              scopes: [
                'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform',
                'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/compute',
                'https://www.googleapis.com/auth/compute.readonly',
              ],
            });
          
            const projectId = await google.auth.getProjectId();
            const result = await compute.instances.aggregatedList({
              auth: authClient,
              project: projectId,
            });
            const vms = result.data;
            console.log('VMs:', vms);
          }
          listVMs();

error I'm getting:

Answer 1

In my case, the issue is related to the internal nodejs crypto package on the new Ubuntu 22.04 LTS version.

I found the following solution: get the location of openssl.cnf file: openssl version -d

comment out the lines providers = provider_sectin in the file openssl.cnf and restart application

Answer 2

the solution is to add a certificate to the project to run as https:

• Generate certificate: How to generate a self-signed SSL certificate using OpenSSL?
• Add server: https.createServer({ key:fs.readFileSync("certificate/key.pem"), cert:fs.readFileSync("certificate/cert.pem") },app).listen(3001);
