Validate json

packer validate web.json

If validation was successful - then create image via packer by following command:

packer build web.json

2. After creation of ami-image - deploy auto scaling infrastructure on Amazon Web Services via Terraform

Fill your own parameters in variables section in terraform/terraform.tfvars file:

aws_access_key	IAM Access Key
aws_secret_key	IAM Secret Key
aws_region	Region (for example: us-east-2)

Init terraform for download modules:

terraform init

Validate terraform files:

terraform validate

Generate and show an execution plan:

terraform plan

Then deploy infrastructure via terraform by following command:

terraform apply

For destroy terraform-managed infrastructure use:

terraform destroy
