terraform adventures

Provision a fully set-up Wordpress blog with database and web server on AWS EC2 instances using Terraform

INSTRUCTIONS:

Download the files in this repository to a working folder locally.

To start the servers you will need to make the following changes:

  • Change the details marked in the comments in the following files:

        - wp-server.tf
        - sql-server.tf
        - secgroups.tf
        - scripts/add-wp.yaml - change the following value in line 48 to your secret API key YOUR_KEY_ID_GOES_HERE
        - scripts/add-wp.yaml - change the following value in line 49 to your secret API key YOUR_SECRET_KEY_GOES_HERE
        - scripts/add-wp.yaml - change the following value in line 53 to your server name that you gave in the tags of sql-server.tf "Values=Isti_MySQL"
    
  • Copy your private key (.pem format) into the folder

  • Open a terminal, install terraform if not yet present

  • Navigate into the folder containing the .tf files and type the following:

    To initiate Terraform:
    
        - terraform init
    
    To validate your configuration files:
    
        - terraform validate
    
    To apply changes and provision the servers:
    
        - terraform apply
    

You can check the server status on your AWS EC2 dashboard. The wordpress site should be available when the server configuration is finished.

IMPORTANT: HTTPS is not available in this version, so make sure to open your blog using a http:// address.

Enjoy!
