A docker image with AWS CLI installed.
The first step in order to use AWS CLI image is to set the required environmental variables to be used in the container.
cp .env.dist .env
Edit .env file with your values (can be obtained from AWS IAM)
Default command is --version so if you run
docker run mikaint/awscli
you'll get something like
aws-cli/1.16.216 Python/2.7.16 Linux/4.9.184-linuxkit botocore/1.12.206
The above command will run even without setting your configuration values as it will not make a request to AWS
In order to run any other command that will make a request to AWS you'll need to specify your file that contains the configuration values
docker run --env-file=.env mikaint/awscli ec2 describe-instances
