Quick way of bootstrapping one or more instances managed by SSM,
using terraform, in order to test ssm-sh. It takes care of
the following:
- Creating an autoscaling group running Amazon linux 2 (includes SSM agent).
- An instance profile with the correct privileges for the SSM agent.
- A log group where each instance will send their SSM agent logs.
Have terraform installed, configure main.tf and run the following:
terraform init
terraform applyIf everything deploys successfully, you should see your instances listed when
running: ssm-sh list.
Terraform state will be stored locally unless you add a remote backend to main.tf,
and when you are done testing you can tear everything down with terraform destroy.
