AWS-Terraform-Ansible
end-to-end automation
Creating AWS infrastructure ( CloudFront + S3+ EC2 Instances) using the Terraform tool with the HCL(HashiCorp Language) scripts and ansible engine is used for infrastructure configuration management.
Pre-requisites:- Preconfigured AWS CLI, ansible engine, Terraform CLI, IAM-user with administrative powers.
[root@server terraform]# aws configure
AWS Access Key ID [********************]:
AWS Secret Access Key [********************]:
Default region name [ap-south-1]:
Default output format [None]:[root@server terraform]# ansible --version
ansible 2.8.3
config file = /root/terraform/ansible.cfg
configured module search path = ['/root/.ansible/plugins/modules', '/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
ansible python module location = /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/ansible
executable location = /usr/local/bin/ansible
python version = 3.6.8 (default, Jan 11 2019, 02:17:16) [GCC 8.2.1 20180905][root@server terraform]# terraform --version

So, our tree and ansible.cfg file looks like.

Here, we are using a template file for creating our inventory file of the ansible hosts so that we can create inventory file as per our requirement.

So, now we can create our resources to build our infrastructure.
[root@server terraform]# terraform init[root@server terraform]# terraform validate[root@server terraform]# terraform apply
As terraform work on the declarative approach, so we can create or destroy our infrastructure from the same Infrastructure-as-code [IAC].
For destroying everything created by Terraform.
[root@server terraform]# terraform destroy
