This module is deprecated and terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-ec2-instance module published on the Terraform registry should be used instead.

A terraform module for making ec2 instances.

  • Assumes you're making your instances in a VPC.
  • Does not do any block device configuration (yet)

Module Input Variables

  • ami_id - The AMI to use
  • number_of_instances - The number of instances you want made
  • subnet_id - The VPC subnet to place the instance in
  • instance_type - The EC2 instance type, e.g. m1.small
  • instance_name - The instance name you want, this is used to populate the Name tag.
  • user_data - The path to the user_data file. Terraform will include the contents of this file while launching the instance
  • tags - A map for setting AWS tags.

Usage

You can use this in your terraform template with the following steps.

  1. Adding a module resource to your template, e.g. main.tf
module "ec2_instance" {
  source = "github.com/terraform-community-modules/tf_aws_ec2_instance"
  instance_type = "${var.instance_type}"
  instance_name = "${var.instance_name}"
  ami_id = "${var.ami_id}"
  aws_access_key = "${var.aws_access_key}"
  aws_secret_key = "${var.aws_secret_key}"
  aws_region = "${var.aws_region}"
  subnet_id = "${var.subnet_id}"
  number_of_instances = "${var.number_of_instances}"
  user_data = "${var.user_data}"
}
  1. Setting values for the following variables, either through terraform.tfvars or -var arguments on the CLI
  • aws_access_key
  • aws_secret_key
  • aws_region
  • instance_name
  • instance_type
  • subnet_id
