Unable to publish to created topic

When I try to publish to the topic I just created I’m getting a An error occurred (NotFound) when calling the Publish operation: Topic not found error.

Reproduction case:

Start the sns/sqs servers using docker-compose: cd examples docker-compose up

Publish to the existing test1 topic AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=foo AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=bar aws sns --endpoint-url http://localhost:9911 list-topics

{
    "Topics": [
        {
            "TopicArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:1465414804035:test1"
        }
    ]
}

AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=foo AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=bar aws sns --endpoint-url http://localhost:9911 publish --topic-arn arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:1465414804035:test1 --message 'TEST'

{
    "MessageId": "bcbded98-610f-4921-930b-286571588609"
}

This is all as expected - however when I create a new topic and publish to it I get AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=foo AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=bar aws sns --endpoint-url http://localhost:9911 create-topic --name new

{
    "TopicArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:new"
}

AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=foo AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=bar aws sns --endpoint-url http://localhost:9911 list-topics

{
    "Topics": [
        {
            "TopicArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:1465414804035:test1"
        }, 
        {
            "TopicArn": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:new"
        }
    ]
}

AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=us-east-1 AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=foo AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=bar aws sns --endpoint-url http://localhost:9911 publish --topic-arn arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:new --message 'TEST'

An error occurred (NotFound) when calling the Publish operation: Topic not found: arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:new

Am I doing something wrong here? Is this happening because I don’t have any subscriptions for this topic?

Ubuntu 14.04, docker 17.09.1-ce, compose 1.18.0, aws cli 1.14.38

From this line https://github.com/s12v/sns/blob/master/src/main/scala/me/snov/sns/actor/SubscribeActor.scala#L50

We can see that, to consider the topic as “found”, we need an actual subscription. Using a command like this docker exec <CONTAINER_ID> sh -c 'aws sns --endpoint-url http://localhost:9911 subscribe --topic-arn arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:1465414804035:test1 --protocol email --notification-endpoint [e-mail]' should make it work.

I was unable to get this to work even using the solution that @Minivera proposed above.
