Note: All of the above variables can be exported via environment variables (TF_<variable_name>=<var_value>) or set in a .tfvars file.

Set up your Terraform variables and deploy your instance:

export TF_VAR_AWS_ACCESS_KEY=<AWS_ACCESS_KEY>
export TF_VAR_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=<AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY>
export TF_ssh_public_key="./chroma_id_rsa.pub"
export TF_ssh_private_key="./chroma_id_rsa"
export TF_VAR_chroma_release=0.4.20
export TF_VAR_region="us-west-1"
export TF_VAR_public_access="true"
export TF_VAR_enable_auth="true"
export TF_VAR_auth_type="token"
export TF_VAR_chroma_data_volume_snapshot_before_destroy="true"
terraform apply -auto-approve

Verify that your instance is up and running:

export instance_public_ip=$(terraform output instance_public_ip | sed 's/"//g')
curl -v http://$instance_public_ip:8000/api/v1/heartbeat

Note: Depending on your OS the sed command might not work. In that case, you can manually copy the public IP from the Terraform output.

To get the auth token generated during the setup:

terraform output chroma_auth_token
