✨ NAME ✨

ec2-create-internet-gateway — Creates an Internet Gateway 🌈

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ec2addigw ([ec2-create-internet-gateway])
ec2addigw [GENERAL OPTIONS]

💅 GENERAL NOTES 💅

Real talk, this one's a little quirky: any command option or parameter can be handed the value - to say "hey, read the values for this option from stdin instead." Not me thinking that's iconic. Periodt.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Creates an Internet Gateway. That's the whole vibe. ✨

👑 GENERAL OPTIONS 👑

  • -O, --aws-access-key KEY — your AWS Access Key ID. Defaults to whatever's in the AWS_ACCESS_KEY environment variable (if it's set at all, bestie).
  • -W, --aws-secret-key KEY — your AWS Secret Access Key. Defaults to the AWS_SECRET_KEY environment variable (if that one's set).
  • -T, --security-token TOKEN — the AWS delegation token. Defaults to the AWS_DELEGATION_TOKEN environment variable (if set).
  • -K, --private-key KEY — [DEPRECATED] specify KEY as the private key to use. Defaults to the value of the EC2_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable (if set). Overrides the default. > it literally says DEPRECATED, so maybe don't, bestie 😭
  • -C, --cert CERT — [DEPRECATED] specify CERT as the X509 certificate to use. Defaults to the value of the EC2_CERT environment variable (if set). Overrides the default. > also deprecated, we're not doing this 🙈
  • -U, --url URL — specify URL as the web service URL to use. Defaults to https://ec2.amazonaws.com (us-east-1) or to the value of the EC2_URL environment variable (if set). Overrides the default.
  • --region REGION — specify REGION as the web service region to use. This option overrides the URL you gave with the -U URL option and the EC2_URL environment variable. It defaults to the region specified by the EC2_URL environment variable, or us-east-1 if that environment variable isn't set. (the way it just stacks its overrides 💅)
  • -D, --auth-dry-run — check whether you could do the requested action instead of actually doing it. A vibe check, basically. ✨
  • -v, --verbose — verbose output. give me everything.
  • -?, --help — display this help.

  • --debug — display additional debugging information.

okay that's the whole page, no cap, nothing skipped 💜 this little love letter to internet gateways came out of the EC2 API command line tools, version 1.6.14.1, api=2014-05 (the date stamp and the manual name got all squished together in the footer, so that's the tea 🍓). go forth and create an internet gateway, you absolute main character 👑💖
