Docker-compose files generated from a task definition with ecs-cli local create should escape the environment variables present in its entrypoint.
Otherwise, the behavior on AWS ECS is not replicated on local with ecs-cli local up out of the box.
Escape the $ tp $$ on the fly at the time of the docker-compose file creation or at the very least put a readable warning to the user if $ is detected prompting him to change the file.
Observed Behavior
With unchanged entrypoint and no warning the subsequent ecs-cli local up will start with the following docker-compose obscure warning:
$ ecs-cli local up <aws:profile>

Environment variables present in a Docker-compose entrypoint are not taken into account.

If you have from the AWS Task definition the following docker-compose generated:
It will not work out of the box, even though the Task definition is perfectly fine.
Therefore a manual change is necessary:
