🧰 Included Tools
Update Debian to AWS CLI v2 @Nuru, Alpine to 3.13.5, drop Jinja2 (#712)
what
- Update Debian to use AWS CLI v2 by default.
- Remove Jinja2. Supersedes and closes #705.
- Update Alpine 3.13.4 -> 3.13.5
- Update Google Cloud SDK 334.0.0 -> 342.0.0
why
- AWS now recommends using CLI v2, and v2 is required when using AWS SSO for authentication, which Cloud Posse now recommends
- Jinja2 released a new major version (3.0), potentially causing problems. We believe the only thing using Jinja2 was
ansible, which we dropped a while back, so we are removing it completely to save space and maintenance. Users can, of course, add it back in their derived Docker images. - Update Alpine and Google Cloud SDK to current versions (updates not handled by Renovate)
notes
Alpine was not updated to use AWS CLI v2 because the official distribution does not support Alpine, because Alpine does not ship with glibc. Instructions have been added to Dockerfile.options for how to install glibc in Alpine and how to install AWS CLI v2 after that. The instructions have been tested, but the resulting configuration has only had limited testing and may have undiscovered issues. At this time, we are not supporting glibc or AWS CLI v2 on Alpine, and we encourage everyone to switch to the Debian Geodesic distribution.
