Project description

AWS CDK CloudFormation Constructs for TF::AWS::KeyPair

Provides an EC2 key pair resource. A key pair is used to control login access to EC2 instances.

Currently this resource requires an existing user-supplied key pair. This key pair's public key will be registered with AWS to allow logging-in to EC2 instances.

When importing an existing key pair the public key material may be in any format supported by AWS. Supported formats (per the AWS documentation) are:

  • OpenSSH public key format (the format in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys)
  • Base64 encoded DER format
  • SSH public key file format as specified in RFC4716
