AWS CLI and AWS EB CLI tools

Location on Docker Hub coxauto/aws-ebcli

A container for running:

• AWS CLI
• AWS EB CLI
• CLI53

Running - in a CLI

To run the CLI tools, use the CLI command just like you normally would. The combination of -w and -v mounts your PWD into the container as the current working directory for the EB CLI. If you're on Windows you'll want to use %cd% instead of $PWD.

docker run -i -w /work -v $PWD:/work coxauto/aws-ebcli eb --version
docker run -i coxauto/aws-ebcli aws --version
docker run -i -w /work -v $PWD:/work coxauto/aws-ebcli eb create test-app-${BUILD_NUMBER}
docker run -i coxauto/aws-ebcli aws ec2 describe-instances --region=us-east-1

To provide credentials, you have 2 options:

1. Use -e to export all your AWS creds env vars
2. Mount your ~/.aws directory to the docker container

Example with -e

docker run -i -w /work -v $PWD:/work -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY -e AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=$AWS_SESSION_TOKEN coxauto/aws-ebcli eb status
docker run -i -e AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID -e AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY -e AWS_SESSION_TOKEN=$AWS_SESSION_TOKEN coxauto/aws-ebcli aws ec2 describe-instances --region=us-east-1

Example with mounting ~/.aws

docker run -i -w /work -v $PWD:/work -v ~/.aws:/home/root/.aws coxauto/aws-ebcli eb status

Running - via a Jenkinsfile

Use in a Jenkinsfile with docker workflow plugin:

docker.image('coxauto/aws-ebcli').inside('-u root:root') {
    sh 'eb create test-app-${BUILD_NUMBER}'
}
