terraform-examples

A collection of Terraform examples for learning Infrastructure as Code (IaC) on AWS. This repository demonstrates common patterns such as basic resources, parameterized configurations with variables, and reusable modules.

Prerequisites

• Terraform installed (v1.0+)
• An AWS account with configured credentials
• The AWS CLI installed and configured (aws configure)

Getting Started

Clone the repository and navigate into it:

git clone https://github.com/jaezeu/terraform-examples.git
cd terraform-examples

Each example is self-contained. To run one, change into its directory and use the standard Terraform workflow:

cd terraform-examples/<example-directory>

terraform init      # Initialize providers and modules
terraform plan      # Preview the changes
terraform apply     # Create the resources
terraform destroy   # Tear down the resources when done

Repository Structure

• main.tf — A basic root example that provisions an S3 bucket.
• terraform-examples/ — A collection of more focused examples:

Example	Description
custom-module-example	Consuming a locally-defined custom module.
dynamodb-parameterized-example	Creating a DynamoDB table driven by input variables.
ec2-key-multi-env-module-example	An EC2 + key pair setup across multiple environments using modules.
ec2-module-example	Provisioning EC2 instances via a module.
public-vpc-module-example	Building a public VPC using a module.
s3-parameterized-example	Creating an S3 bucket driven by input variables.

Notes

• Applying these examples may create billable AWS resources. Remember to run terraform destroy to avoid unexpected charges.
• Update variable values (such as bucket names and regions) to match your own AWS environment before applying.
