Being Software Craftsman (DFTBA)

Prerequisite:

• Docker is installed and running. I have installed a Docker desktop community edition.

Steps:

• Create a file with the name docker-compose.yml.
• Copy the following content and paste it into a docker-compose.yml.

version: "3.1"
services:
  localstack:
    image: localstack/localstack:latest
    container_name: localstack_demo
    ports:
      - "4563-4599:4563-4599"
      - "8000:8080"
    environment:
      - SERVICES=${SERVICES- }
      - DEBUG=1
      - DATA_DIR=/tmp/localstack/data
    volumes:
      - "./.localstack:/tmp/localstack"
      - "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock"

• If there is any problem due to indentation, you can download the original file from here.
• Open PowerShell from the folder where above docker-compose.yml is kept.
• Run docker-compose up command.
• Builds, (re)creates, starts, and attaches to containers for all LocalStack services.
• Now you can work with Localstack services like S3.
