sportebois/dynamo-local-admin-docker repository overview

⁠dynamo-local-admin

This project builds a Docker image with DynamoDB Local⁠ and dynamodb-admin⁠ installed and hooked up.

⁠Usage

docker pull instructure/dynamo-local-admin
docker run -p 8000:8000 -it --rm instructure/dynamo-local-admin

Now open http://localhost:8000/⁠ in your browser, and you'll see the admin UI. You can also hit port 8000 with Dynamo API requests:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=key AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=secret aws --region us-east-1 dynamodb --endpoint http://localhost:8000/ list-tables

A proxy is included which differentiates between Dynamo requests and web requests, and proxies to the appropriate server.

⁠Why?

It's just very convenient if you do a lot of Dynamo development.

⁠Dinghy Users

If you're using Dinghy and its automatic proxy, VIRTUAL_HOST and VIRTUAL_PORT are already set, so you don't have to specify any ports in the docker run and can just open http://dynamo.docker/⁠ in your browser.
