From https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonECR/latest/userguide/getting-started-cli.html

Create a Dockerfile.

Build the image:

docker build -t myapp .

Create a repository:

aws ecr create-repository \
--repository-name my-repository \
--region us-east-1 \
--image-tag-mutability IMMUTABLE

The default mutability is MUTABLE.

Authenticate to the ECR registry (with get-login-password and docker login):

aws ecr get-login-password --region us-east-1 \
| docker login --username AWS --password-stdin <aws_account_id>.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
# Login Succeeded

Push the image to ECR:

docker tag myapp:latest <aws_account_id>.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/my-repository
docker push <aws_account_id>.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/my-repository:latest

After tagging the image, docker images should show a new entry. Note that the AWS user needs to have rights to push.

Pull the image:

docker pull <aws_account_id>.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/my-repository:latest

Run the image:

docker run -d -p 3000:3000 <aws_account_id>.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/my-repository:latest
