Project 02 — Variables, Outputs and tfvars

Guided practice15 min
Duration
45 to 60 minutes · Module 2 — Variables, outputs and first AWS resource
You will build
a parameterizable Terraform project: variables are declared in variables.tf, their values come from terraform.tfvars (or from a file passed with -var-file), and the result is a local file whose name and content change without you touching main.tf
Deliverable
the project folder with its six .tf/.tfvars files, the outputs of plan, apply, output, and the proof that terraform destroy removed everything
Cost
none — local provider only, no cloud account.
