Infrastructure as Code Deployment

Deploy AWS infrastructure to LocalStack using popular IaC tools including Terraform, AWS CDK, CloudFormation, SAM, and Pulumi.

Capabilities

• Deploy Terraform configurations to LocalStack
• Run AWS CDK deployments locally
• Deploy CloudFormation stacks
• Build and deploy AWS SAM applications
• Execute Pulumi programs against LocalStack
• Validate infrastructure before deployment

Prerequisites

• The lstk CLI installed and the emulator running (lstk start) — see the localstack skill
• The underlying tool on your PATH: terraform, cdk, sam, or aws. lstk proxies them; it does not bundle them.

lstk replaces the old awslocal / tflocal / cdklocal / samlocal wrappers — you no longer need to pip install/npm install them. Pulumi is the exception; see Pulumi.
