How to Simulate a Packer AMI Build in Python
A simple Python class that mimics a Packer AMI build lifecycle — creates a build object, transitions its state to completed, and prints a JSON snapshot.
import json
class PackerBuildMock:
def __init__(self, name, ami_id, region="us-east-1", state="pending"):
self.name = name
self.ami_id = ami_id
self.region = region
self.state = state
def build(self):
if self.state == "pending":
self.state = "completed"
…How to mock S3 remote backend for Terraform in Python
Simulate a Terraform S3 remote backend using moto to write and read state files, enabling local testing without real AWS.
import boto3
from moto import mock_aws
import json
from pathlib import Path

def demo_s3_remote_backend():
s3 = boto3.client("s3", region_name="us-east-1")
bucket = "terraform-state-bucket"
key = "env/prod/terraform.tfstate"
s3.create_bucket(Bucket=bucket)
