anster is a modular infrastructure as code template that glues Ansible and Terraform together to work seamlessly with each other.
anster is a infrastructure as code template that combines Ansible and Terraform. Ansible variables are used to create a terraform.tfvars file. Ansible then calls Terraform to create the infrastructure using a map with optional variables. The output given by Terraform is then parsed by Ansible to dynamically build it's inventory and used to configure the created infrastructure.
anster can be used in a couple of ways:
- You quickly need a VM 'in the cloud' with some barebones config.
- You want to test/build a Ansible playbook/role against a server hosted by a cloud infrastructure provider.
- You want to build a project that can consistently spin up and configure the same specific set of infrastructure whenever you need it with a single command.
