+# Ansible Role `aws_ec2`
+
+Ansible role for creating, deleting, stopping and starting AWS EC2 instances 
+for running keycloak tests.
+
+## Prerequisities
+
+Role requires Ansible Collection `amazon.aws` version `6.0.0` or higher.
+
+Role assumes that user is authenticated to use AWS CLI, ie. that authentication 
+variables `AWS_ACCESS_KEY` and `AWS_SECRET_KEY` are set in the environment.
+
+
+## Parameters
+- `region`: AWS region for the resources to be created in.
+- `cluster_name`: Unique name of the instance cluster within the region. Defaults to `keycloak_{{ cluster_identifier }}`.
+- `cluster_identifier`: Identifier to distingish multiple clusters within the region. Defaults to `${USER}`.
+- `cluster_size`: Number of EC2 instances to be created.
+- `ami_name`: Name of the AMI image to be used for spawning instances.
+- `instance_type`: [AWS instance type](https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/).
+- `instance_volume_size`: Size of instance storage device.
+- `instance_device`: Path to Linux storage device.
+
+For defaults see `defaults/main.yml`.
+
+
+## Example Playbook
+
+Example playbook `aws_ec2.yml`:
+```
+- hosts: localhost
+  connection: local
+  roles: [aws_ec2_client]
+```
+
+## Create Instances
+
+Using the example playbook run:
+```
+ansible-playbook aws_ec2.yml -e region=<REGION> -e operation=create
+```
+
+Replace <REGION> with actual value, e.g. `us-west-1`.
+
+Optionally you can override other parameters by `-e PARAMETER=VALUE` or `-e @PARAMS.yml`.
+
+This operation will create the following 2 files:
+- `{{ cluster_name }}_{{ region }}.pem` - private SSH key.
+- `{{ cluster_name }}_{{ region }}_inventory.yml` - an Ansible host inventory file.
+
+```
+keycloak:
+  children:
+    "{{ cluster_name }}_{{ region }}":
+      vars:
+        ansible_user: ec2-user
+        ansible_become: yes
+        ansible_ssh_private_key_file: "{{ cluster_name }}_{{ region }}.pem"
+      hosts:
+        host-1-ip-address:
+        host-2-ip-address:
+        ...
+```
+
+Notice that the created hosts will be included in Ansible group `keycloak` 
+and subgroup `{{ cluster_name }}_{{ region }}`.
+
+
+## Stop and Start instances
+
+Using the example playbook run:
+```
+ansible-playbook aws_ec2.yml -e region=<REGION> -e operation=stop
+```
+
+After the instances are stopped their public IP addresses will be de-allocated.
+
+```
+ansible-playbook aws_ec2.yml -e region=<REGION> -e operation=start
+```
+
+After the instances are started again the role will re-create the host inventory file with updated public IP addresses.
+
+
+## Delete Instances
+Using the example playbook run:
+```
+ansible-playbook aws_ec2.yml -e region=<REGION> -e operation=delete
+```
+
+This will remove created AWS resources and delete the host inventory file and private key.
