A repository of templates for AWS, on how to create resources with AWS CloudFormation, Hashicorp Terraform and sceptre.

Sceptre is a tool to drive AWS CloudFormation. Sceptre manages the creating, updating and deletion of stacks, and provides meta commands to allow users to get information about their stacks.

Troposphere is a Python DSL for creating CloudFormation descriptions. It can be used in combination with Sceptre Templating.

Awacs is a Python library for AWS Access Policy Language creation.

Using Sceptre Templates, templates with .j2 extensions are treated as Jinja2 templates. These are rendered and should create a raw JSON or YAML CloudFormation template.

Using Sceptre Templates, templates with a .py extension are treated as Python templates and should returns a CloudFormation template as a JSON or YAML string.

• make create
• make update
