localstack v0.11.5 and kcl v1.13.3

Question

I am using kcl v1.13.3 with the latest localstack v0.11.5 The kcl client now uses edge service port 4566.

Are the kcl and localstack versions compatible?

I keep getting the following error:

com.amazonaws.SdkClientException: Unable to execute HTTP request: The target server failed to respond

Answer 1

Did you already confirm that localstack endpoint is functional on that port? For example:

aws kinesis list-streams --endpoint http://localhost:4566

(If you do not have and want aws cli installed, there's always the option of using docker)

Moreover, it might be helpful for you to share how you are boostrapping the AWS client. It should be something along the lines of:

AwsClientBuilder.EndpointConfiguration endpointConfig = new AwsClientBuilder.EndpointConfiguration("http://localhost:4566",
                                                                                               Regions.EU_WEST_1.getName());

    return AmazonDynamoDBClientBuilder.standard()
            .withEndpointConfiguration(endpointConfig)
            .build();

Note that if you are running your kcl app inside another docker container, then you might want to change from "http://localhost:4566" to "http://localstack:4566".
