Assistance troubleshooting sam local invoke

See original GitHub issue

I’m trying to use sam local invoke to simulate an S3 event. When I try and run the sam local invoke command "sam local invoke -e event.json --debug-port 5858 ExampleFunction"

I get an error message “unable to use container host config override file from ‘$HOME/.config/aws-sam-local/container-config.json’: HOME env variable is not set”

Where should the HOME environment variable be set? I assume I’m doing something silly…
