Export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY to environment

Build Environment
1

Hey, I have a problem with exporting credentials from ~/.aws/credentials to environment so they become available as$AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and $AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID during the build. Especially during docker image build as

docker build --build-arg CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM=$CIRCLE_BUILD_NUM --build-arg AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID --build-arg AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

Any hints how to achieve that?

Hey,

Have you tried adding both environment variables to your project via the UI’s Project Settings page? That will allow them to be available (exported) to the entire build process (after the machine) section.

To get there, click the gear icon for your project’s settings page, then find the ‘Tweaks’ section and you’ll see a link for environment variables.

Hey,
I added both ENV variables and it works.
It is not the perfect solution, but it is enough to keep me running :wink:
Thanks a mil :slightly_smiling:
