Ec2 instance using Ansible

                                                                                                                                                                           

I am going to run ec2 instance using ansible. We have to setup ansible so that it can call aws module in playbook. There are basic requirement to setup it:--

• Python > 2.6
• Boto

While writing ansible playbook in YAML, Indentation is important part so to resolve indentation, I have installed vim and created file having name ec2run.yaml. Vim detects indentation automatically. 

AMAZON.AWS.EC2 install

                        ansible-galaxy collection install amazon.aws  

To use it in a playbook, specify: amazon.aws.ec2

These are sample playbook to create & terminate instance:--

# Run Ec2 instance from AWS

---

  - name: Ec2 Run

    hosts: localhost

    connection: local

    tasks:

      - name: Running Instance

        amazon.aws.ec2:

          key_name: SharadKeyPair

          instance_type: t2.micro

          image: ami-08e0ca9924195beba

          region: ap-south-1

          wait: yes

          #group: Ansible

          count: 1

          vpc_subnet_id: subnet-<subnetid>

          assign_public_ip: yes

          aws_access_key: <AWS access key>

          aws_secret_key: <AWS secret key>

Created this file and saved it as ec2run.yaml format.  

This is attached screenshot when playbook was running :------

## After running ec2 instance We will write playbook to get public IP & details of instance running on AWS

To get instance details, We need to install community.aws module in ansible server, Command are as below:-- 

                 ansible-galaxy collection install community.aws

For this boto3 also required to get instance information

sudo apt install python3-boto3
