Multi-operation Prompts

This page describes multi-operation prompts which can be used to trigger more than one operations in a single prompt where all operations can be either ec2 operations or lightsail operations or a mixture of operations from ec2 and lightsail.

Examples

Creating a vpc with a child subnet

create a vpc with '10.101.0.0/16' cidr
  create a subnet with '10.101.1.0/24' cidr

Adding two spaces in front of a line will establish parent / child relationship between this resource and the resource created by the previous line. Otherwise all the resources will be provisioned without any relationship with each other.

Listing vpcs and subnets

list all the vpcs
list all the subnets

Setting up a lightsail vm as a docker host

import a lightsail key pair with following details -
name - key1
key - <public_key_content>
-----
create a lightsail vm with following details -
name(s) - instance1
zone - eu-west-1a
blueprint - ubuntu_24_04
bundle - nano_3_0
ssh key - key1
user data - "curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mechcloud/sample-scripts/refs/heads/main/install-docker.sh | bash"
-----
replace firewall rules of 'instance1' lightsail vm with following -
22|tcp|@CURRENT_IP
443|tcp|@CURRENT_IP

Trigger a lightsail operation on multiple resources even though AWS API supports performing this operation on one resource at a time

reboot following lightsail VMs -
instance1
instance2
