It is easy to set-up Instance using terraform. In order to do so you should follow certain steps.
These are as follows:
STEP 1: Go the given https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/aws/latest/docs/resources/instance and copy the content from the terraform docs of aws_instance.
STEP 2: Now; Open your terminal and make one directory and under that directory make file named as Instance.tf, and paste the content that you have copied from the URL.
Run the following commands to do so :
cd Documents mkdir Terraform mkdir Instance nano Instance.tf
cat instance.tf
STEP 4: Remember you should have aws CLI in your local machine and then Configure your AWS by running the command:
aws configure
STEP 5: Make one more file named as provider.tf to give your credentials for AWS as:
provider "aws"{
region = "us-east-1"
access_key = "Your_Access_Key"
secret_key = "Your_Secret_Key"
}
STEP 6: Now run the following command :
terraform init
STEP 7: Now let’s plan it . Plan is basically you are creating anything and what exactly you will get as the result.
