▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⭐️ Instruction's Guides ⭐️ ▬▬▬▬▬▬
1. How to use Terraform input variables - jhooq.com/terraform-input-var...
Terraform is OpenSource infrastructure as a code software tool. With the help of Terraform you can provision infrastructure on cloud platform such AWS(aws.amazon.com/), Google Cloud(cloud.google.com/), Azure(azure.microsoft.com/en-us/), DigitalOcean(www.digitalocean.com/), OpenShift(www.openshift.com/) and many more...cloud provider
But before you start working with Terraform you must understand different types of variables provided by the terraform -
1. string - It will hold string values
2. number - It will hold number values
3. bool - It will hold boolean value .i.e. true, false
4. list - It is used for the collection of values. Collection can be of type string, number
5. map - When you need to create key-value pair then need to use map variable type
In this session, we are going to create a sample terraform for each variable type.

Glad you liked it!

[@nilavasen8631]

Dear Rahul, really nice training material. Thanks a lot. Can you please develop and upload a new video on a real-life project kind of stuff on TF to AWS , so that we can get a clear e2e idea on how to actually apply TF in practical projects ? Thanks in advance !!

[@nagababunalluri5059]

This is too late to find this channel.very useful content shared thanks bro

[@RahulWagh]

So nice of you

[@mamtasingh7951]

nice content

[@sudheerpetluri]

Hi Rahul, I am started learning terraform. It's very clear to understand.

[@RahulWagh]

Glad to hear that, stay tuned there are more to come in upcoming weeks

[@happylearningtricks]

thank you for your valuable content..!!❤

[@RahulWagh]

My pleasure 😊

[@SivaPrasad-ol1gh]

Thank You so much

[@RahulWagh]

Welcome!

[@KrishnaRac]

When you give count=2 how does it takes the ami-id for the instance for 2nd instance.

[@DanielWeikert]

Great work thanks for sharing. Any reason you run init each time? 1 time should be enough or not? Do you have a tutorial using terraform for a s3-lambda-glue project? best regards and take care

[@RahulWagh]

There is no need to run the terraform unit each time, it is absolutely optional. I am planning to prepare terraform lambda project soon

[@abbaskp3330]

Thank you so much sir..it's really great work. We are able to grasp each explanation..please keep doing, Terraform with gcp for creating dataset and assigning role to group to that created dataset using Terraform.

[@RahulWagh]

Keep watching there is more to come

[@shawnisamazin]

@@RahulWagh I love this tutorial but I dont understand why you introduced count = length (var.user_names) and var.user_names[count.index]. That got me soooo confused. Could you please clarify? @Rahul Wagh

[@allwayspositive8359]

you are hero sir thanks a lot sir your contents are supur

[@RahulWagh]

Most welcome

[@subhash0609]

There are some Running Servers in aws which have No IAM Roles. I can list those servers in a file, and from that file can we apply IAM roles by using Terraform.

[@RahulWagh]

Yeah sure you can do that and add IAM roles

[@sumanjaiswal13]

Your videos are awesome, it would be great if upload some content on terragrunt also.

[@RahulWagh]

Will try to prepare something around terragrunt in upcoming weeks

[@kirankumarkkk7661]

Thanks a lot

[@sundeepgarg3502]

your videos are very good, before this terraform was confusing for me

[@RahulWagh]

Glad I could help!

[@kumarv6706]

How to create different tag names (dev, test) for each ec2 instances with variables?

[@RahulWagh]

There is tag element inside the terraform ec2 block which you can use it

[@johnk1709]

Super

[@RahulWagh]

you welcome

[@talhamalik1681]

watching this TF series in 2024 and thanking to @rahul for your effort for us.

[@RahulWagh]

You’re welcome

[@furrysimbha5647]

The AMI specified in this, is it active AMI that you created in your AWS account? I believe its yes.

[@RahulWagh]

I think it should be an active AMI on aws

[@shivanshusharma20.07]

Can you cover more topic of gcp int erraform like aws? like tfvars and ssh in gcp?

[@RahulWagh]

It is on the list

[@shivanshusharma20.07]

@@RahulWagh Sure sir what is playlist for gcp where all topics are covered?

[@sandv2902]

Sir please arrange videos In a sequence and in the link as well

[@Hitesh_678]

Hi Rahul, i tried the string using GCp but i get lot of error provider "google" { credentials = file("gcp-account.json") project = "my-project-terraform-351112" region = "europe-west4" zone = "europe-west4-a" } resource "google_compute_instance" "default" { machine_type = var.machine_type" tags = { Name= "Terraform e2-micro" } boot_disk { initialize_params { image = "debian-cloud/debian-9" } } variable "machine_type" { description = "Machine type e2.micro" type = string default = "e2.micro" } network_interface { network = "default" access_config { // Ephemeral IP } } }

[@sudheerpetluri]

Rahul please expain in GCP also.

[@RahulWagh]

Its already there in the Terraform Part 1 - here is the timestamp for the Google Cloud Platform if you want to learn more - kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHu7Z4Zrf6Z6pqs

[@sudheerpetluri]

@@RahulWagh yes i saw that video

[@user-mb7qe6ro9m]

but u are still hard coding the instance type in variable section.

[@RahulWagh]

Well yes the idea of this tutorial to show the variables types, so I just hardcoded the instance type into the variable section. I agree hardcoding is not recommended way but for this tutorial and to keep the things simple i have hard coded the instance type

[@korebhagath3976]

Why you use string .why not list

[@RahulWagh]

It’s up to you what you wanna use string or list.

[@kajolbahl872]

Not good
