# `tf_aws_centos_ami`
Terraform module to get CentOS AMIs, because CentOS doesn't publish the list anywhere
publicly, and the ["recommended"](https://wiki.centos.org/Cloud/AWS) way to instantiate
their images is through AWS MarketPlace.
This list is provided as-is, and I make no warranties about its validity or currency.
## Input Variables
All input variables have default values, but we recommend specifying all of them:
* `region`, e.g., `eu-central-1`;
* `release`, e.g., `6.0` or `7.0`; and
* `virttype`, e.g., `hvm` or `pv`.
All images are assumed to be `x86-64`.
## Output Variable
There is only one output, named `ami_id`, which can be used directly on the
`ami_id` attribute on `aws_instance` stanzas.
## Example
```terraform
module "centos_ami" {
source = "github.com/ripta/tf_aws_centos_ami"
region = "us-west-2"
release = "7.0"
virttype = "hvm"
}
resource "aws_instance" "web" {
count = 5
ami = "${module.centos_ami.ami_id}"
instance_type = "m4.large"
}
```
## Note
The process of updating `amis.tf.json` is painfully manual. You are welcome to
submit a pull request to update said JSON. In the PR, please include the source
URL, where you retrieved the AMI IDs, so that we can spot-check them.
If CentOS decides to publish a list of AMI IDs, PRs to automate this process is
very much appreciated.
