Steps I went though to create a AWS EC2 server using IaC GitHub actions and Terraform Cloud
Below we are going to write a Github Action that turns on an AWS EC2 server
Create a new repository
Setup file for workflow
name: startMagent2DevEC2
# Controls when the action will run.
# This code is set up only to run when you click action in the repository, If you require to run on a push or cron edit below
on:
# Triggers the workflow on push or pull request events but only for the main branch
# push:
# branches: [ main ]
# Allows you to run this workflow manually from the Actions tab
workflow_dispatch:
# A workflow run is made up of one or more jobs that can run sequentially or in parallel
jobs:
# This workflow contains a single job called "build"
build:
# The type of runner that the job will run on
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
# Below this are each of the steps that are run
steps:
# Name of step
- name: Start AWS EC2
# Run AWS Command on the GitHub Hosted runner which starts the instance using AWS authentication stored in GitHub Secrets (see below how to add)
run: |
aws ec2 start-instances --instance-ids ${{secrets.AWS_EC2_INSTANCE_ID }}
env:
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID: ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY: ${{ secrets.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY }}
AWS_DEFAULT_REGION: ${{ secrets.AWS_REGION }}
In the above workflow, we have many secrets to add eg. ${{ secrets.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID }}
Create AWS Keys
To add these AWS keys to your GitHub Repository
Create a secret for your instance id ie. ${{secrets.AWS_EC2_INSTANCE_ID }}
Commit and push code if you haven't already
If successful you should have a complete success workflow and your EC2 should be switched on in AWS.
Don't forget to turn off your EC2 if you don't want it to run.
Feel free to comment if you get stuck or have questions or feedback✌️
Happy Coding 🙂
