This demonstrate how to add/pop/delete message from SQS queue with localstack docker.

Make sure to install AWS CLI in order to execute command below.

aws configure

Feel free to input whatever for Id and Secret. Region could be anything I guess, if you do not know one then input 'eu-west-1' and just enter blank for the rest.

Execute below command to spin up SQS with Localstack on docker

npm run start:local:dependencies

Once the container successfully up then execute following command to create a new queue in local SQS

npm run create:local:queue

Look into test folder and run test with

npm t

or

npm run test

It will compile typescript and run tests.

• Either remain usage of config file and update LOCAL = 0 or simply remove LOCAL case in sqs-client.ts function getQueueUrl for connecting to SQS on AWS.
• Update aws-config.json with valid IAM key or replace with regular environment file approach for linux environment.
