cnservices/aws-cli repository overview

⁠AWS Cli Docker Image

Image containing the AWS Cli executable.

⁠Usage

The image is ready to execute AWS Cli commands like:

    docker run cnservices/aws-cli <COMMAND>

⁠To provide AWS credentials you have two alternatives:

⁠Using environment variables

You can use environment the variables to authenticate the AWS Cli.

    docker run --env AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=<YOUR_ACCESS_KEY> --env AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<YOUR_SECRET_KEY> cnservices/aws-cli <COMMAND>

Where:

• AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: Specifies an AWS access key associated with an IAM user or role.
• AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: Specifies the secret key associated with the access key. This is essentially the "password" for the access key.

⁠Using AWS profiles

You can use your AWS profiles to authenticate the AWS Cli.

    docker run --volume ~/.aws/:/root/.aws/ cnservices/aws-cli <COMMAND>

⁠Get into the container

To access the container you need to override the entry point:

    docker run -ti --entrypoint sh cnservices/aws-cli
