Awesome, glad it was helpful!

[@Shiki229]

Please make more tutorials on Terraform. They've been very helpful, thank you!

[@CasualBiker]

This has just everything I needed. The whole series of terraform videos are perfect for beginners. Thank you!

[@WillBrock]

Great! I'm glad they were helpful

[@spyderclin]

Amazing. The examples really hit home and clarified a lot of questions I had when reading through the documentation. Thank you for sharing and taking the time to put together this incredible content.

[@WillBrock]

[@felipeozoski]

[@Ronnie9P]

i'm confused a bit, if you create multiple ec2 instances , how does terraform know which ip to print when - provisioner "local-exec" { command = "echo ${self.public_ip} - ?

[@marcusthelin9991]

Very informative. Thank you!

[@henrygory]

I don't understand why you need to set up the connection block for ssh because I can already ssh in without it.

[@pranayvadde8650]

Hi Will, in connection block. how to specify private key file? i have given like this but getting error -private_key = file("F:\tf-eastus1-pem\pranay.pem") ...am specifying the pem file which is stored in my laptop. pls help...btw.the output is : Error: Invalid escape sequence on provisioners-main.tf line 16, in resource "aws_instance" "pranaytest": 16: private_key = file("F:\tf-eastus1-pem\pranay.pem") The symbol "p" is not a valid escape sequence selector.

[@venkataramanapaik2733]

how do i add my private key in provisioner connection if my pem file is stored as jenkins credentials?

[@ramirez368]

Question for anyone, I already created a EC2 instance with Terraform, but I want be be able to connect to this instance and run an Ansible playbook so I can create and configure Apache to it....what is the easiest way to do that?

[@StormWolf01]

I love these vids. They explain what i need to know. Don't take it personally, but the one thing i don't like is the sound of your keyboard, which i find horrible. But having to listen to that keyboard is a small price to pay compared to the quality of the information delivered. Thanks.

[@WillBrock]

Thanks, I have an external mic now for future videos which will eliminate the keyboard sounds.

[@joeb.1163]

This is brilliant 👏 👌

[@bahthiernosadialiou4141]

really perfect, best cours

[@simplyviki]

Thanks, so what is the best way to run some shell commands on new instances if we don't want to use Ansible ?

[@WillBrock]

With aws you can run commands after the instance is created using User Data. docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/user-data.html For Azure you can use Cloud Init or Virtual Machine Extensions.

Hello, Can you please let me know how to use provision in windows machine with 'winrm' connection.

[@WillBrock]

I don't use windows, sorry.

[@softwaredeveloper7]

thanks @@WillBrock, I understand this one, but can you do post one video with connection winrm instead of ssh type. Look like no one has given answer on stackoverflow or make video on this topic Regards, @vishal

[@DDayVlogss]

[@sacchasunil]
