Terraform for S3 Static Website

This is a set of Terraform files to set up a static website in AWS. It makes use of the following resources:

• S3
• Route53
• CloudFront
• Certificate Manager

The end result is a website that supports:

• a primary and secondary domain (typically apex and www domains)
• HTTPS
• redirect from secondary to primary

Usage

1. Install Terraform
2. Configure your AWS profile
3. git clone git@github.com:alimac/terraform-s3-static-website.git
4. cd terraform-s3-static-website
5. terraform apply

You will be prompted to provide values for primary and secondary domain.

In addition to typing values at the prompt, you can create a terraform.tfvars file:

primary_domain = "example.com"
secondary_domain = "www.example.com"

If AWS is not your domain registrar, you will need to set your domain's name servers to AWS name servers associated with your hosted zone. Terraform will output those automatically:

Outputs:

name_servers = [

    ns-1595.awsdns-07.co.uk,
    ns-619.awsdns-13.net,
