A Dockerfile for AWS dynamodb-local built on alpine linux so it's tiny.
It's on docker-hub and github
latest,2018-04-11(Dockerfile)
The docker entrypoint is set to run dynamodb-local with default options: the default command adds -dbPath set to /dynamodb_data.
Get list of available command line options
docker run --rm fingershock/dynamodb-local -help
usage: java -Djava.library.path=./DynamoDBLocal_lib -jar DynamoDBLocal.jar
[-port <port-no.>] [-inMemory] [-delayTransientStatuses]
[-dbPath <path>][-sharedDb] [-cors <allow-list>]
-cors <arg> Enable CORS support for javascript against a
specific allow-list list the domains separated
by , use '*' for public access (default is
'*')
-dbPath <path> Specify the location of your database file.
Default is the current directory.
-delayTransientStatuses When specified, DynamoDB Local will introduce
delays to hold various transient table and
index statuses so that it simulates actual
service more closely. Currently works only for
CREATING and DELETING online index statuses.
-help Display DynamoDB Local usage and options.
-inMemory When specified, DynamoDB Local will run in
memory.
-optimizeDbBeforeStartup Optimize the underlying backing store database
tables before starting up the server
-port <port-no.> Specify a port number. Default is 8000
-sharedDb When specified, DynamoDB Local will use a
single database instead of separate databases
for each credential and region. As a result,
all clients will interact with the same set of
tables, regardless of their region and
credential configuration. (Useful for
interacting with Local through the JS Shell in
addition to other SDKs)
Run with default configuration which persists data to a volume at /dynamodb_data. The volume can be bind-mounted to a host directory if desired.
docker run --rm -P fingershock/dynamodb-local Adding additional command line options resets the default Docker CMD so it must be added to keep the behavior
docker run --rm -P fingershock/dynamodb-local -dbPath /dynamodb_data -sharedDb
