FastAPI and MySQL Application Deployment

This guide provides the steps to deploy a FastAPI and MySQL application using Terraform and Ansible.

Prerequisites

1. Terraform: Install Terraform by following the instructions here.
2. Ansible: Install Ansible by following the instructions here.
3. AWS CLI: Install AWS CLI by following the instructions here.
4. AWS Credentials: Configure your AWS credentials using aws configure.

Create an SSH Key Pair in AWS

First, create an SSH key pair in AWS. This key pair will be used to access your EC2 instances.

aws ec2 create-key-pair --key-name MyKeyPair --query 'KeyMaterial' --output text > ~/.ssh/MyKeyPair.pem
chmod 400 ~/.ssh/MyKeyPair.pem

Installation Steps

1. Clone the Repository Clone the repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/Franky-Lim24/heap-workshop.git
cd heap-workshop

2. Deploy Infrastructure with Terraform Navigate to the Terraform directory and initialize Terraform:

cd terraform
terraform init

Apply the Terraform configuration to deploy the infrastructure:

terraform apply

3. Note the Outputs After Terraform has completed, it will output the following information:

• Public IP address
• DNS
• Instance ID

4. Configure Ansible Inventory Navigate to the Ansible directory:

cd ../ansible

Edit the inventory.ini file and replace the placeholder with the actual IP address output by Terraform:

[web]
<public_ip> ansible_user=ubuntu ansible_ssh_private_key_file=~/.ssh/MyKeyPair.pem

5. Deploy the Backend Application with Ansible Run the Ansible playbook to configure the server and deploy the application:

ansible-playbook -i inventory.ini deploy.yml
