⁠Build Status

A minimal alpine linux container with the aws cli using the tag source from aws/aws-cli⁠.

⁠Configuration

aws-cli configuration⁠

⁠Images

Each image is created using one of the base Alpine releases (as seen below) and for both amd/64 and arm/64 architectures.

• Alpine-3.18.0⁠ - latest
• Alpine-3.17.0⁠
• Alpine-3.16.0⁠
• Alpine-3.15.0⁠

To run the images against different platforms, use the --platform switch when evoking your container runtime:

# amd64
docker run --platform linux/amd64 theidledeveloper/aws-cli-alpine:v2-nightly-alpine3.18 /bin/sh -c "aws --version"
# arm64
docker run --platform linux/arm64 theidledeveloper/aws-cli-alpine:v2-nightly-alpine3.18 /bin/sh -c "aws --version"

⁠Release Versions

Versioned released are created when a new version is tagged in aws/aws-cli/tags⁠.

⁠Nightly Images

Nightly builds are created from the latest commit at aws/aws-cli/tree/v2⁠ for each alpine version listed below.

Image Name	Details
theidledeveloper/aws-cli-alpine:v2-nightly-alpine3.18 theidledeveloper/aws-cli-alpine:v2-nightly
theidledeveloper/aws-cli-alpine:v2-nightly-alpine3.17
theidledeveloper/aws-cli-alpine:v2-nightly-alpine3.16
theidledeveloper/aws-cli-alpine:v2-nightly-alpine3.15

⁠Build Locally

The image makes use of ARG instructions to allow the use of a single Dockerfile⁠ but build images with different base image versions of aws-cli tags. To properly supply the image ARGs pass in ALPINE_VERSION and AWS_CLI_VERSION using the --build-arg flag. Alpine image versions can be found at alpine dockerhub⁠ but also need to be cross checked with python alpine⁠ as this image is used to build the aws-cli from source. You can also find the available aws-cli tags here⁠.

To build an alpine 3.18+ aws-cli version 2.11.20 use below:

docker build --build-arg ALPINE_VERSION=3.18 --build-arg AWS_CLI_VERSION=2.11.20 -t aws-cli-alpine:2.11.20 .

To build an alpine 3.17 aws-cli version 2.9.8 use below:

docker build --build-arg ALPINE_VERSION=3.17 --build-arg AWS_CLI_VERSION=2.9.8 -t aws-cli-alpine:2.9.8 .
