VPC

Learn how to create, update, and manage AWS EC2 VPCs using Alchemy Cloud Control.

The VPC resource lets you create and manage AWS EC2 VPCs to isolate your AWS resources in a virtual network.

Minimal Example

Create a basic VPC with a CIDR block and enable DNS support.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";

const myVPC = await AWS.EC2.VPC("my-vpc", {
  CidrBlock: "10.0.0.0/16",
  EnableDnsSupport: true,
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Name", Value: "MyVPC" }
  ]
});

Advanced Configuration

Configure a VPC with instance tenancy options and a specific IPv4 netmask length.

const advancedVPC = await AWS.EC2.VPC("advanced-vpc", {
  CidrBlock: "192.168.0.0/24",
  InstanceTenancy: "dedicated",
  Ipv4NetmaskLength: 24,
  EnableDnsHostnames: true,
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Name", Value: "AdvancedVPC" },
    { Key: "Environment", Value: "Production" }
  ]
});

Example with IPAM Pool ID

Create a VPC that uses a specific IPv4 IPAM pool.

const ipamVPC = await AWS.EC2.VPC("ipam-vpc", {
  Ipv4IpamPoolId: "ipam-pool-12345678",
  CidrBlock: "10.1.0.0/16",
  EnableDnsSupport: true,
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Name", Value: "IPAMVPC" }
  ]
});

Example with Adoption of Existing Resource

Adopt an existing VPC if it is already created instead of failing.

const existingVPC = await AWS.EC2.VPC("existing-vpc", {
  CidrBlock: "10.2.0.0/16",
  adopt: true,
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Name", Value: "ExistingVPC" }
  ]
});
