Steps to upgrade the AWS SDK from v2 to v3

Question

My app is working fine with v2 of the AWS-SDK, but I see that when I run tests, there's a message stating that v2 is being moved to maintenance mode soon.  I tried running aws-sdk-js-codemod per https://www.npmjs.com/package/aws-sdk-js-codemod, but I keep getting $ command not found when I run

```
$ npx aws-sdk-js-codemod@latest -t v2-to-v3 PATH...
```

I know I have npx installed because I ran $ npx create-react-app right before that.

What I want is a set of examples such as those found here:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/amazon-cognito-identity-js#usage.

If it's just a matter of converting the import I have

```
import AWS from "aws-sdk";
```

to that found in the docs, namely

```
import * as AWS from 'aws-sdk/global';

```
please advise.

Answer

Friendly ping.

Answer

Hi,

When you run the command, try not to put the "$" symbol in the beginning, as it is generally used to indicate the command is being run in the terminal or command prompt. \
The `$` is not part of the command itself. It simply represents the command prompt and `$` is not meant to be typed.

So, your command should be:
```
npx aws-sdk-js-codemod@latest -t v2-to-v3 example.ts
```

For more details regarding upgrading from v2 to v3, you can follow the guide: [1] [2].
