Before you begin, ensure that you have the following software installed on your machine:

• Docker
• Make

Step 1: Configure AWS Credentials

Create a .env.local file in the root of the project directory. This file should contain your AWS credentials and the default region. The .env-example file with real values:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE 
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY 
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=eu-south-2 

Step 2: Build the Docker Image

make build

Build command will automatically take into account the configured aws credentials.

Step 4: Run the Docker Container

make run

This command starts a Docker container with an interactive bash shell.
