# local-exec Provisioner
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `local-exec` provisioner invokes a local executable after a resource
|
||
|
|
is created. This invokes a process on the machine running Terraform, not on
|
||
|
|
the resource. See the `remote-exec` [provisioner](/docs/provisioners/remote-exec.html)
|
||
|
|
to run commands on the resource.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Example usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
# Join the newly created machine to our Consul cluster
|
||
|
|
resource "aws_instance" "web" {
|
||
|
|
...
|
||
|
|
provisioner "local-exec" {
|
||
|
|
command = "consul join ${aws_instance.web.private_ip}"
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
