Private repositories

To fetch Docker images from private repositories, you have to provide the repository credentials via AWS Secrets Manager. Go to AWS Secrets Manager and create a new secret of type other type) with the plaintext value:

{
  "username": "DOCKERHUB_USERNAME",
  "password": "DOCKERHUB_PASSWORD"
}

Use the secret module wrapper to use the secret within cfn-modules.
