You need to provide aws credentials inside your container. You can mount them dinamically using a volume:

docker run -v $HOME/.aws:/root/.aws --rm -it -p 8080: 80 image_name

Your credentials should be locally in $HOME/.aws, then they are mounted into the home directory of the user that runs your application (change /root to another dir if the user is other)

The AWS region is not configured inside your container, and probably neither are the credentials. Have a look at the documentation or here.

The files generated by the CLI for the profile configured in the previous section look like this:

~/.aws/credentials

[default]
aws_access_key_id=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE
aws_secret_access_key=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY

~/.aws/config

[default]
region=us-west-2
output=json

The following settings are supported.

aws_access_key_id – AWS access key.

aws_secret_access_key – AWS secret key.

aws_session_token – AWS session token. A session token is only required if you are using temporary security credentials.

region – AWS region.

output – output format (json, text, or table)
