docker-aws-cli

Docker image for running the Amazon Web Services Command Line Interface.

The versions currently included are aws-cli 1.18.46 on Python 3.8.2.

Background

The aws command is a command line interface for Amazon's Web Services, like EC2, S3, etc.

The docker-aws-cli creates a Docker image containing all dependencies needed to run aws. That way, you can run aws in a Docker container without setting the aws dependencies on the host system.

Build from Source

1. Make sure Docker is installed.

2. Clone docker-aws-cli from GitHub

   git clone https://github.com/sigursoft/docker-aws-cli.git

3. Build the docker image

   cd docker-aws-cli
   docker build -t="my-aws-cli" .

4. Run a docker container with that image

   docker run -t -i my-aws-cli
