aws-powershell

Cross-platform scripts and Terraform configurations for doing cool things with AWS VPC, ELB, and Route 53.

This repository contains both PowerShell scripts and Terraform configurations for setting up AWS lab environments.

PowerShell Setup (PowerShell Core)

If you don't already have the AWS PowerShell SDK installed, install-awspowershell.ps1 has got you covered. It will detect your PowerShell edition (Desktop or Core) and install and import the appropriate AWS PowerShell module.

. ./install-awspowershell.ps1

I recommend using Visual Studio Code with the PowerShell extension. It works on Linux, Mac, and Windows!

Terraform Setup (Alternative)

If you prefer infrastructure-as-code with Terraform, I have added configurations for major lab modules. To use these:

1. Ensure you have Terraform installed.
2. Navigate to the terraform directory within the module folder.
3. Run terraform init and terraform apply.
