LocalStack is a software that allows developers to replicate cloud environments locally. It provides a complete set of AWS cloud services with a simple and easy-to-use interface. This tutorial will show you how to install LocalStack on Debian Linux.
Before we start the installation process, make sure that you have the following programs installed on your Debian machine:
The installation of LocalStack on Debian can be divided into two parts:
To install Docker on Debian, you need to execute the following commands:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install curl
$ curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
$ sudo sh get-docker.sh
Docker should now be installed on your Debian machine.
To install LocalStack, open your terminal and execute the following commands:
$ sudo pip3 install localstack
$ curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/localstack/localstack/master/docker-compose.yml > docker-compose.yml
Finally, start LocalStack using the following command:
$ docker-compose up
LocalStack should now be installed and running on your Debian machine.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install LocalStack on Debian Linux. You can now experiment with AWS cloud services locally without the need for a cloud infrastructure. Happy developing!
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
