​

Getting Started

1. Ensure AWS provider is added:

monk cluster provider add -p aws

2. Define networking primitives (save as ec2.yaml):

namespace: aws-ec2-examples

vpc:
  defines: aws-ec2/vpc
  region: us-east-1
  cidr_block: 10.1.0.0/16

subnet:
  defines: aws-ec2/subnet
  region: us-east-1
  vpc_id: \<- connection-target("vpc") entity-state get-member("vpc_id")
  cidr_block: 10.1.1.0/24

sg:
  defines: aws-ec2/security-group
  region: us-east-1
  vpc_id: \<- connection-target("vpc") entity-state get-member("vpc_id")
  group_name: demo-sg
  description: Demo security group

3. Create/update:

monk update aws-ec2-examples/vpc
monk update aws-ec2-examples/subnet
monk update aws-ec2-examples/sg
