AWS CLI v2 for Alpine Linux

AWS CLI v2 for Alpine Linux

I got tired of waiting for #5578, so I did it myself.

Building

You need to have Docker and Docker Compose installed locally. It will take several minutes to run.

make run

The end result should be two .whl files in this directory.

Docker Troubleshooting

If there are space or I/O errors, try running the following, then try again:

docker image prune -a -f && \
docker system prune --volumes -f

Installation

apk add alpine-sdk git libffi-dev openssh openssl-dev py3-pip python3-dev
pip install botocore*.whl
pip install awscli*.whl

docker-compose.yml

version: "3.8"

.PHONY: compile
## compile: Fetches the source code and compiles an installable .whl file. Runs automatically from inside the container.
