  • 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
string / required
A mutable string of at most 1024 characters associated with this resource for the user's convenience. Has no effect on the managed zone's function.
dns_name
string / required
The DNS name of this managed zone, for instance "example.com.".
dnssec_config
dictionary
added in 2.9
DNSSEC configuration.
default_key_specs
list
Specifies parameters that will be used for generating initial DnsKeys for this ManagedZone. If you provide a spec for keySigning or zoneSigning, you must also provide one for the other.
algorithm
string
String mnemonic specifying the DNSSEC algorithm of this key.
Some valid choices include: "ecdsap256sha256", "ecdsap384sha384", "rsasha1", "rsasha256", "rsasha512"
key_length
integer
Length of the keys in bits.
key_type
string
Specifies whether this is a key signing key (KSK) or a zone signing key (ZSK). Key signing keys have the Secure Entry Point flag set and, when active, will only be used to sign resource record sets of type DNSKEY. Zone signing keys do not have the Secure Entry Point flag set and will be used to sign all other types of resource record sets. .
Some valid choices include: "keySigning", "zoneSigning"
kind
string
Default:
"dns#dnsKeySpec"
Identifies what kind of resource this is.
kind
string
Default:
"dns#managedZoneDnsSecConfig"
Identifies what kind of resource this is.
non_existence
string
Specifies the mechanism used to provide authenticated denial-of-existence responses.
Some valid choices include: "nsec", "nsec3"
state
string
Specifies whether DNSSEC is enabled, and what mode it is in.
Some valid choices include: "off", "on", "transfer"
env_type
string
Specifies which Ansible environment you're running this module within.
This should not be set unless you know what you're doing.
This only alters the User Agent string for any API requests.
labels
dictionary
added in 2.8
A set of key/value label pairs to assign to this ManagedZone.
name
string / required
User assigned name for this resource.
Must be unique within the project.
name_server_set
string
Optionally specifies the NameServerSet for this ManagedZone. A NameServerSet is a set of DNS name servers that all host the same ManagedZones. Most users will leave this field unset.
private_visibility_config
dictionary
added in 2.8
For privately visible zones, the set of Virtual Private Cloud resources that the zone is visible from.
networks
list
The list of VPC networks that can see this zone.
network_url
string
The fully qualified URL of the VPC network to bind to.
project
string
The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
scopes
list
Array of scopes to be used.
service_account_contents
jsonarg
The contents of a Service Account JSON file, either in a dictionary or as a JSON string that represents it.
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.
state
string
    Choices:
  • present ←
  • absent
Whether the given object should exist in GCP
visibility
string
added in 2.8
 Default:
"public"
The zone's visibility: public zones are exposed to the Internet, while private zones are visible only to Virtual Private Cloud resources.
Must be one of: `public`, `private`.
Some valid choices include: "private", "public"

Notes

Note

  • API Reference: https://cloud.google.com/dns/api/v1/managedZones

  • Managing Zones: https://cloud.google.com/dns/zones/

  • for authentication, you can set service_account_file using the c(gcp_service_account_file) env variable.

  • for authentication, you can set service_account_contents using the c(GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_CONTENTS) env variable.

  • For authentication, you can set service_account_email using the GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAIL 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.
