terraform-gen

name	terraform-gen
description	Generate Terraform infrastructure configs. Use when provisioning cloud resources.

Terraform Generator

Terraform syntax is verbose. Describe your infrastructure and get proper .tf files.

One command. Zero config. Just works.

Quick Start

npx ai-terraform "3 EC2 instances behind load balancer"

What It Does

• Generates Terraform configuration
• Supports AWS, GCP, Azure
• Includes variables and outputs
• Proper resource dependencies

Usage Examples

# AWS setup
npx ai-terraform "3 EC2 instances behind load balancer"

# Database
npx ai-terraform "RDS PostgreSQL with read replica"

# Kubernetes
npx ai-terraform "EKS cluster with 3 node groups"

Best Practices

• Use modules - reusable infrastructure
• State in S3 - not local
• Use variables - no hardcoded values
• Plan before apply - always review changes

When to Use This

• Starting new infrastructure
• Learning Terraform syntax
• Quick prototyping
• Generating baseline configs
