Synopsis ¶

Represents a TargetHttpsProxy resource, which is used by one or more global forwarding rule to route incoming HTTPS requests to a URL map.

Requirements ¶

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

python >= 2.6
requests >= 2.18.4
google-auth >= 1.3.0

Parameters ¶

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
auth_kind string / required	Choices: application machineaccount serviceaccount	The type of credential used.
description -		An optional description of this resource.
name - / required		Name of the resource. Provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?` which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
project string		The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
quic_override - added in 2.7	Choices: NONE ENABLE DISABLE	Specifies the QUIC override policy for this resource. This determines whether the load balancer will attempt to negotiate QUIC with clients or not. Can specify one of NONE, ENABLE, or DISABLE. If NONE is specified, uses the QUIC policy with no user overrides, which is equivalent to DISABLE. Not specifying this field is equivalent to specifying NONE.
scopes list		Array of scopes to be used.
service_account_contents string		A string representing the contents of a Service Account JSON file. This should not be passed in as a dictionary, but a string that has the exact contents of a service account json file (valid JSON)
service_account_email string		An optional service account email address if machineaccount is selected and the user does not wish to use the default email.
service_account_file path		The path of a Service Account JSON file if serviceaccount is selected as type.
ssl_certificates - / required		A list of SslCertificate resources that are used to authenticate connections between users and the load balancer. Currently, exactly one SSL certificate must be specified.
ssl_policy - added in 2.8		A reference to the SslPolicy resource that will be associated with the TargetHttpsProxy resource. If not set, the TargetHttpsProxy resource will not have any SSL policy configured. This field represents a link to a SslPolicy resource in GCP. It can be specified in two ways. First, you can place a dictionary with key 'selfLink' and value of your resource's selfLink Alternatively, you can add `register: name-of-resource` to a gcp_compute_ssl_policy task and then set this ssl_policy field to "{{ name-of-resource }}"
state -	Choices: present ← absent	Whether the given object should exist in GCP
url_map - / required		A reference to the UrlMap resource that defines the mapping from URL to the BackendService. This field represents a link to a UrlMap resource in GCP. It can be specified in two ways. First, you can place a dictionary with key 'selfLink' and value of your resource's selfLink Alternatively, you can add `register: name-of-resource` to a gcp_compute_url_map task and then set this url_map field to "{{ name-of-resource }}"

API Reference: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/v1/targetHttpsProxies
Official Documentation: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/http/target-proxies
For authentication, you can set service_account_file using the GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_FILE env variable.
For authentication, you can set service_account_email using the GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL env variable.
For authentication, you can set service_account_contents using the GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_CONTENTS env variable.
For authentication, you can set auth_kind using the GCP_AUTH_KIND env variable.
For authentication, you can set scopes using the GCP_SCOPES env variable.
Environment variables values will only be used if the playbook values are not set.
The service_account_email and service_account_file options are mutually exclusive.
