CloudFormation yaml as output?
TryTryAgain opened this issue · comments
I've seen other threads (Reddit, etc.) talking about having ec2-security-groups-dumper export to usable CloudFormation templates (yaml). This would be extremely helpful.
Are there other solutions out there using the output of ec2-security-groups-dumper in csv or json as valid input to easily create a new security group using the dumped output?
I'm not aware of any, this tool has been built before terraform was a thing, and most (included us) switched to terraform.
That's fair enough, makes sense. Because Terraform's import isn't the easiest/prettiest to work with, I think I may take ec2-security-groups-dumper output and generate terraform code. I really do like the ease of dumping this tool provides.
Oh sorry, I missed the fact that now we also have awscli where you can dump everything from their API in json.
