rdt12/paws repository overview

⁠rdt12/paws

Repository: https://github.com/rdt12/paws⁠

This image is based on the official Scientific Linux 7 container⁠ and contains:

• The Perl module Paws by John Scoles⁠ and dependencies
• The system awscli package.
• The system jq package.

⁠Typical usage

Typical usage is:

docker run --rm -it -v   ${HOME}:/root -v `pwd`:/scratch rdt12/paws:latest /bin/bash

which makes things easy if your AWS credentials are in ~/.aws/credentials. On the other hand you should be wary of exposing your credentials to some container that you downloaded off the web. I know that I would be, so take a look around, maybe put your credentials in a non-standard place, or possibly build the container yourself.

In any case, the Dockerfile in the git repo documents the commands that you can run in a vanilla SL7 install to have a working Paws installation.

⁠Examples

The git repository contains an examples directory⁠ with a couple of examples of using Paws.
