Generating CloudFormation Templates from YAML Dictionaries

The security group and Network ACLs parts of CloudFormation templates can be difficult to read. This template containing Jinja macros converts easier-to-read YAML dictionaries of security group and NACL rules into JSON.

Here ais a generic macro template and some example files showing how to use it.

• cloudformation.macros.j2 - the macros
• cf_vars.yml - YAML dictionaly of security groups and NACLs, including some complex rules for both
• test.template.j2 - a simple CloudFormation template that uses the macro file
• cf_test.yml - a simple Ansible playbook that generates CloudFormation JSON from thr previous file.

AWS CloudFormation YAML template - appending to list parameter types

Documenting this here, as I often forget (what I have found) is the best way to do this at the moment.

For example, you have a list of two existing security groups given to a stack and wish to create (and use) a third - attaching all to an ALB:
