ecr-repo-creator

Small tool to create AWS ECR repository if missing, static build to have no dependencies.

There is also an example of Gitlab CI component that using it in glci-example ;-)

Usage

ecr-repo-creator [-region <region>] repo/to/create

As ecr-repo-creator rely on AWS SDK, authentication uses the following environment variables:

• AWS_PROFILE or
• AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY/AWS_SESSION_TOKEN or
• AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID/AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

The default region is eu-west-1.

Repository can either be in the following form:

• just the repository name: repository/name
• full uri: 000000000000.dkr.ecr.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/repository/name (see note)

Caution

Full uri is a convenient function and strips the *.amazonaws.com part, therefore neither accountId not region portion of the uri are used to determine the real target. Only the default (eu-west-1) or region flag will be used in conjunction to accountId, inferred from the provided credentials.

Dockerfile

The Dockerfile is a convenient way to add the tool to Kaniko build chain.

docker build -t new-build-image:latest --build-arg GOLANG_VERSION=1.22.5 --build-arg KANIKO_VERSION=v1.23.2 .
