cdktf-go-aws-vpc

The Cloud Development Kit for Terraform (CDKTF) allows you to define your infrastructure in a familiar programming language such as TypeScript, Python, Go, C#, or Java.

In this tutorial, you will provision an EC2 instance on AWS using your preferred programming language.

Prerequisites

Terraform >= v1.0
CDK for Terraform >= v0.8
A Terraform Cloud account, with CLI authentication configured
an AWS account
AWS Credentials configured for use with Terraform

Credentials can be provided by using the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, and optionally AWS_SESSION_TOKEN environment variables. The region can be set using the AWS_REGION or AWS_DEFAULT_REGION environment variables.

$ export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="anaccesskey"
$ export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="asecretkey"
$ export AWS_REGION="us-west-2"

Install project dependencies

mkdir cdktf-go-aws-vpc
cd cdktf-go-aws-vpc
cdktf init --template="go"

Install AWS provider

Open cdktf.json in your text editor, and add aws as one of the Terraform providers that you will use in the application.

{
  "language": "go",
  "app": "go run *.go",
  "codeMakerOutput": "generated",
  "projectId": "02f2d864-a2f2-49e8-ab52-b472e233755e",
  "sendCrashReports": "false",
  "terraformProviders": [
	 "hashicorp/aws@~> 3.67.0"
  ],
  "terraformModules": [],
  "context": {
    "excludeStackIdFromLogicalIds": "true",
    "allowSepCharsInLogicalIds": "true"
  }
}

Run cdktf get to install the AWS provider you added to cdktf.json.

cdktf get

CDKTF uses a library called jsii to allow Go code to interact with CDK, which is written in TypeScript. Ensure that the jsii runtime is installed by running go mod tidy.

go mod tidy

Provision infrastructure

cdktf deploy

After the instance is created, visit the AWS EC2 Dashboard.

Clean up your infrastructure

cdktf destroy
