This is an example of how to provision a simple environment in AWS using Terraform and Chef.
Once run, you will end up with:
- a round-robin load balancer node running nginx
- two application nodes running a simple Golang application located in src/
- supporting resources in AWS (SSH key pair, Security Groups, VPC, subnets, etc.)
The lightweight wrapper script run.sh will create a SSH key pair and makes sure you have all the prerequisites needed to run the example. The simple Golang application is included pre-built in the Chef cookbook example_app.
To run:
./run.sh <aws_access_key> <aws_secret_key>
To destroy the environment and all resources the run script created, run the following:
terraform destroy -var aws_access_key=<aws_access_key> -var aws_secret_key=<aws_secret_key>
The repository includes a sample Jenkinsfile that can be used to build a Continuous Delivery pipeline for the application.
