AWS DynamoDB Local

Overview

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/amazondynamodb/latest/developerguide/Tools.DynamoDBLocal.html

Images with tags other than latest can be found on Docker Hub.

Quickstart

docker-compose up

This will run a DynamoDB Local instance exposing port 8000. Check out docker-compose.yml for more details.

Updating

In order to support reproducible builds as much as possible, the ETag of the tarball is specified in the Dockerfile. To obtain the latest ETag and update your own Dockerfile, you can do something like the following:

curl -sI https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/dynamodb-local/dynamodb_local_latest.tar.gz

You will want to look for ETag and use that value as the ETAG build argument in the Dockerfile. Remember that the quotes around ETag values are part of the value, and should be escaped.

Building

docker build --pull -t gordonstratton/dynamodb-local:latest .

Then, tag the image with the date of the release and push it.
