title: How can I call elasticmq on node.js via AWS SDK?
body: <p>I am developing a node.js project plannig to run on AWS and use Amazon SQS.
  I am setting up a local development environment using elasticMQ.
  (<a href="https://github.com/adamw/elasticmq" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/adamw/elasticmq</a>)
  It's cool that the binary is also available through npm.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to use AWS SDK for Javascript to make calls to the local sqs-like process?  Or must I go via REST interface?
  Can someone share a code sample for initializing calls to elasticmq?</p>
  
  <p>Many thanks!</p>
