# Typescript: LocalExecProvisioner
> CDKTN Core API Reference for LocalExecProvisioner in Typescript.
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 [local-exec](https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/language/resources/provisioners/local-exec)
## Initializer
```typescript theme={null}
import { LocalExecProvisioner } from 'cdktn'
const localExecProvisioner: LocalExecProvisioner = { ... }
```
