AWS CLI
- AWS CLI can be executed from AWS Cloud Shell
- Installing AWS CLI Refer Here
- If you instal aws cli then you need to configure credentials. Refer Here to create credentials and configure credentials
- Refer Here for the ec2 cli docs
- Lets find the key pairs Refer Here
- list all the key pairs Refer Here
- To query the result we can use JMES Path Refer Here
- Lets see how the jmes path can be used with aws cli
- For creating instances Refer Here
- Use the following bash to create an ubuntu 20 image based ec2 instance
#!/bin/bash
# lets find the ec2 key value pairs
keypair=$(aws ec2 describe-key-pairs --query "KeyPairs[0].KeyName")
keypair=${keypair:1:-1}
echo "Selected key pair is $keypair"
# lets find the security group
sg_id=$(aws ec2 describe-security-groups --group-names "openall" --query "SecurityGroups[0].GroupId")
sg_id=${sg_id:1:-1}
echo "Selected security group is ${sg_id}"
# lets find the ami id
ami_id=$(aws ec2 describe-images --filters "Name=owner-id,Values=099720109477" "Name=description, Values='Canonical, Ubuntu, 20.04 LTS, amd64 focal image build on 2022-04-19'" --query "Images[0].ImageId" --output text)
echo "Selected ami id id ${ami_id}"
instance_size="t2.micro"
aws ec2 run-instances --image-id $ami_id --instance-type $instance_size --key-name $keypair --security-group-ids $sg_id
* To remove the ec2 instance terminate the instance
* Exercise:
* For existing script Refer Here
* Try to create a redhat 8 based ec2 instance from cli
* stop the ec2 instance aws ec2 stop-instances
* start the ec2 instace aws ec2 start-instances
* get the public ip aws ec2 describe-instance --instance-ids <> --query "Reservations[0].Instances[0].PublicIpAddress"
* login into ec2 instance
* install some thing
* logout
* terminate the ec2 instance aws ec2 terminate-instances --instance-id
