Overview

This class is the starting point for working with Auto Scaling.

To use Auto Scaling you must first sign up here.

For more information about Auto Scaling:

Credentials

You can setup default credentials for all AWS services via AWS.config:

AWS.config(
  :access_key_id => 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID',
  :secret_access_key => 'YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY')

Or you can set them directly on the AWS::AutoSclaing interface:

auto_scaling = AWS::AutoScaling.new(
  :access_key_id => 'YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID',
  :secret_access_key => 'YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY')

Launch Configurations

You need to create a launch configuration before you can create an Auto Scaling Group.

# needs a name, image id, and instance type
launch_config = auto_scaling.launch_configurations.create(
  'launch-config-name', 'ami-12345', 'm1-small')

If you have previously created a launch configuration you can reference using the LaunchConfigurationCollection.

launch_config = auto_scaling.launch_configurations['launch-config-name']

Auto Scaling Groups

Given a launch configuration, you can now create an Auto Scaling Group.

group = auto_scaling.groups.create('group-name', 
  :launch_configuration => launch_config,
  :availability_zones => %(us-east-1a us-east-1b),
  :min_size => 1,
  :max_size => 4)
