Example for an SQS event with https://www.localstack.cloud/

[hanneskaeufler]

I would love to get any pointers to how I can setup an Argo event listening to an (aws) SQS queue. Now this queue is not actually in AWS, but instead emulated using https://www.localstack.cloud/.
I don't see anything in https://argoproj.github.io/argo-events/eventsources/setup/aws-sqs/ that would allow me to set a custom endpoint for where the queue is reachable? Googling didn't really find anything, so hoping somebody here has any ideas?

Thanks!

You can specify both endpoint and queue together in your EventSource to accomplish this.

For example:

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: EventSource
metadata:
  name: example
  namespace: localdev-example
spec:
  eventBusName: example
  sqs:
    example:
      jsonBody: true
      accessKey:
        name: example-sqs-creds
        key: access_key
      secretKey:
        name: example-sqs-creds
        key: secret_key
      region: us-east-1
      endpoint: <ENDPOINT FOR LOCALSTACK HERE>
      queue: <QUEUE NAME HERE>

In my case, I have localstack running in a k3d cluster so I have the following endpoint value: localstack.default.svc.cluster.local:4566.

IIRC, if you're running localstack outside of k8s, your endpoint would probably be just localhost:4566.
