tf_aws_fedora_ami

Terraform module to get the current set of publicly available Fedora AMIs.

This module grabs all of the AMIs listed at:

https://getfedora.org/en/cloud/download/

and then looks up the one you want given the input variables

Input variables

version - 21 or 22 (the current version, and the default)
region - E.g. eu-central-1
distribution - base/atomic
virttype - hvm/pv

Outputs:

ami_id

Example use

module "ami" {
  source = "github.com/terraform-community-modules/tf_aws_fedora_ami"
  region = "eu-central-1"
  distribution = "atomic"
  virttype = "hvm"
}

resource "aws_instance" "atomic" {
  ami = "${module.ami.ami_id}"
  instance_type = "m3.8xlarge"
  ...
}

Stability note

I've added a version variable so that I could continue maintaining this when subsequent versions are released - however that's predicated in the AMIs still existing in future. I have no idea how I'll actually resolve this in future...

I recommend that you include this module by specific SHA for stability!

Maintainer notes for supporting a new version

Update VERSION constant in getvariables.rb to new version
Run make
Check variables.tf.json has been updated with 27 new AMI ids.
If any errors run make clean. Update code in getvariables.rb to work with updated download site and go back to step 2.
Update main.tf to default to new version
Update this readme to indicate new default version
