ok I have three environments in kedro local dev and prod for each of those I have different aws credentials stored in different env files lets say env local and env prod when I m running the different environments locally I will do I simlink env gt then kedro run env=dev for example and I use the template config loader in settings py to load the corresponding env file now my question is regarding the deployment with docker I want to have an image in ECR and then create different enpoints with the same image in ECS I will need to pass those different env files to the image somehow

Nok Lam Chan · Answer

Sorry I am not sure what s the question here It seems that you already have a way to do this

Nok Lam Chan · Answer

Are you trying to avoid the step of doing simlink

Nok Lam Chan · Answer

I assume your image didn t contain the credentials these configuration will then be passed as external configuration
