How Does One Use This?

What Does This Do?

A whole BOATLOAD of goodies, including:

• Friendly DNS entries brought to you by Route53
• An RDS
• A VPC, with security groups
• A whole mess of s3 buckets (5 in total - for all your storage needs)
• An amazing NAT Box
• SSH/HTTPS/TCP ELBs
• An IAM User

Looking to setup a different IAAS

We have have other terraform templates to help you!

• azure
• gcp

This list will be updated when more infrastructures come along.

Prerequisites

go get -u github.com/hashicorp/terraform

Notes

You can choose whether you would like an RDS or not. By default we have rds_instance_count set to 1 but setting it to zero will skip RDS deployment.

RDS instances take FOREVER to deploy, keep that in mind.

• public_key: (require) Public key to be added to your AWS list of key_pairs
• region: (required) Region you want to deploy your resources to
• availability_zones: (required) List of AZs you want to deploy to
• rds_db_username: (default: admin) Username for RDS authentication
• rds_instance_class: (default: db.m3.large) Size of the RDS to deploy
• rds_instance_count: (default: 0) Whether or not you would like an RDS for your deployment

Running

Standing up environment

terraform apply \
  -var "env_name=durian" \
  -var "access_key=access-key-id" \
  -var "secret_key=secret-access-key" \
  -var "public_key=ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQD3F6tyPEFEzV [email protected]" \
  -var "region=us-west-1" \
  -var "availability_zones=[\"us-west-1a\", \"us-west-1b\"] \
  -var "rds_instance_count=1" \
  -var "dns_suffix=myparentzone.cool.com"

Tearing down environment

terraform destroy \
  -var "env_name=durian" \
  -var "access_key=access-key-id" \
  -var "secret_key=secret-access-key" \
  -var "public_key=ssh-rsa AAAAB3NzaC1yc2EAAAADAQABAAABAQD3F6tyPEFEzV [email protected]" \
  -var "region=us-west-1" \
  -var "availability_zones=[\"us-west-1a\", \"us-west-1b\"] \
  -var "rds_instance_count=1" \
  -var "dns_suffix=myparentzone.cool.com"
