InternetGateway

The InternetGateway resource allows you to manage AWS EC2 InternetGateways which are used to enable communication between instances in your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and the internet.

Minimal Example

Create a basic InternetGateway with a tag for identification.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";

const internetGateway = await AWS.EC2.InternetGateway("myInternetGateway", {
  Tags: [
    {
      Key: "Name",
      Value: "MyInternetGateway"
    }
  ]
});

Advanced Configuration

Configure an InternetGateway to adopt an existing resource if it already exists.

const existingInternetGateway = await AWS.EC2.InternetGateway("existingGateway", {
  adopt: true,
  Tags: [
    {
      Key: "Environment",
      Value: "Production"
    }
  ]
});

Attach to a VPC

Demonstrate how to attach the InternetGateway to a VPC for internet access.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";

const myVpc = await AWS.EC2.Vpc("myVpc", {
  CidrBlock: "10.0.0.0/16",
  Tags: [
    {
      Key: "Name",
      Value: "MyVPC"
    }
  ]
});

const internetGateway = await AWS.EC2.InternetGateway("vpcInternetGateway", {
  Tags: [
    {
      Key: "Name",
      Value: "VPCInternetGateway"
    }
  ]
});

// Attach the InternetGateway to the VPC
await AWS.EC2.AttachInternetGateway("attachGateway", {
  InternetGatewayId: internetGateway.id,
  VpcId: myVpc.id
});

Detach from a VPC

Detach the InternetGateway from a VPC when no longer needed.

await AWS.EC2.DetachInternetGateway("detachGateway", {
  InternetGatewayId: internetGateway.id,
  VpcId: myVpc.id
});
