Cloudsoft::Terraform::Infrastructure

Quick start

First, you need to install the custom type into CloudFomation. See the installation guide documentation.

Once done, you can use Terraform in CloudFormation templates by specifying the type Cloudsoft::Terraform::Infrastructure. For example:

AWSTemplateFormatVersion: 2010-09-09
Description: Terraform in CloudFormation example, using the Terraform Connector for CloudFormation
Resources:
  TerraformEc2Example:
    Type: Cloudsoft::Terraform::Infrastructure
    Properties:
      ConfigurationContent: |
        resource "aws_instance" "my-test-instance" {
          ami             = "XXXXXXX"
          instance_type   = "t2.micro"
        }

The Terraform configuration does not need to be in-lined; you can instead use ConfigurationUrl or ConfigurationS3Path to point at a configuration.

You can then:

• Use Terraform in AWS Service Catalog
• Mix and match Terraform with CloudFormation in IaC templatees

Features:

• View Terraform outputs as CloudFormation outputs
• Drive Terraform updates through CloudFormation
• Read and delete

For more information on how to use the custom type, see the user guide documentation.
