Nodemailer and Amazon SES

My structure:

site
-- node_modules
---- nodemailer
-- webclient
---- js
------- controller.js

site/node_modules/nodemailer
site/webclient/js/controller.js

site/webclient/js/controller.js:

    var nodemailer = require('../../node_modules/nodemailer');

    var transport = nodemailer.createTransport('SES', {
        AWSAccessKeyID: 'xxx', // real one in code
        AWSSecretKey: 'xxx', // real one in code
        ServiceUrl: 'email-smtp.us-west-2.amazonaws.com'
    });

    var message = {
        from: 'example@mail.com', // verified in Amazon AWS SES
        to: 'example@mail.com', // verified in Amazon AWS SES
        subject: 'testing',
        text: 'hello',
        html: '<p><b>hello</b></p>' +
              'test'
    };

    transport.sendMail(message, function(error) {
        if (error) {
            console.log(error);
        } else {
            console.log('Message sent: ' + response.message);
        }
    });

This code is part of a controller where all other functions within it work perfectly.

Is there something I am missing?
Perhaps I'm calling for the incorrect nodemailer module?
Or should the transport be SMTP, not SES?

I'm stuck.

The below code is what I used and it worked for me. This is for the current NodeMailer. Where the transport module needs to be included separately. In the previous versions the transport modules were built in. https://andrisreinman.com/nodemailer-v1-0/#migrationguide

var nodemailer = require('nodemailer');
    var sesTransport = require('nodemailer-ses-transport');

    var SESCREDENTIALS = {
      accessKeyId : "accesskey" ,
      secretAccessKey : "secretkey"
    };

    var transporter = nodemailer.createTransport(sesTransport({
        accessKeyId: SESCREDENTIALS.accessKeyId,
        secretAccessKey: SESCREDENTIALS.secretAccessKey,
        rateLimit: 5
    }));



      var mailOptions = {
          from: 'FromName <registeredMail@xxx.com>',
          to: 'registeredMail@xyz.com', // list of receivers
          subject: 'Amazon SES Template TesT', // Subject line
          html: <p>Mail message</p> // html body
      };

      // send mail with defined transport object
      transporter.sendMail(mailOptions, function(error, info){
          if(error){
              console.log(error);
          }else{
              console.log('Message sent: ' + info);
          }
      });
