awslogs-cli

A Docker Image for the jorgebastida/awslogs utility

Description

This is a simple wrapping of the jorgebastida/awslogs utility to install it in an Alpine Docker Image. All credit for the functionality of the tool itself belongs there.

How To Use

Create an aws_credentials.env file in the directory where you plan to run this tool. You can either clone this repo and build the Docker image or pull directly from Docker Hub. Add your AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY to the file. When running the container, use the env file to specify your environment for the container.

docker run --env-file aws_credentials.env rbhitchcock/awslogs-cli
