This project is a playground to experiment on a few resource types with AWS provider using Terraform
These are modules that will be executed in order with terraform apply command
- network - create network layer, i.e. VPC, subnet.
- security - create security layer, i.e. security group
- web - create ec2 instance
Each module takes input variable(s) and return ID(s) of the resource(s) it creates as output
The script is created to run in AWS ap-southeast-2 zone.
It also requires 2 parameters to be able to communicate with AWS as followings:
- access_key
- secret_key
Variables can be passed into Terraform via command line
terraform apply -var="access_key=<your access key>" -var="secret_key=<your secret key>"
A safer alternative may be having a separate .tfvars file storing those variables and running command:
terraform apply -var-file="credentials.tfvars"
