gcp_cloudtasks_queue – Creates a GCP Queue

New in version 2.9.

Synopsis

• A named resource to which messages are sent by publishers.

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
app_engine_routing_override dictionary			Overrides for task-level appEngineRouting. These settings apply only to App Engine tasks in this queue .
	instance string		App instance. By default, the task is sent to an instance which is available when the task is attempted.
	service string		App service. By default, the task is sent to the service which is the default service when the task is attempted.
	version string		App version. By default, the task is sent to the version which is the default version when the task is attempted.
auth_kind string / required		Choices: application machineaccount serviceaccount	The type of credential used.
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.
location string / required			The location of the queue.
name string			The queue name.
project string			The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
rate_limits dictionary			Rate limits for task dispatches. The queue's actual dispatch rate is the result of: * Number of tasks in the queue * User-specified throttling: rateLimits, retryConfig, and the queue's state. * System throttling due to 429 (Too Many Requests) or 503 (Service Unavailable) responses from the worker, high error rates, or to smooth sudden large traffic spikes.
	max_concurrent_dispatches integer		The maximum number of concurrent tasks that Cloud Tasks allows to be dispatched for this queue. After this threshold has been reached, Cloud Tasks stops dispatching tasks until the number of concurrent requests decreases.
	max_dispatches_per_second integer		The maximum rate at which tasks are dispatched from this queue. If unspecified when the queue is created, Cloud Tasks will pick the default.
retry_config dictionary			Settings that determine the retry behavior.
	max_attempts integer		Number of attempts per task. Cloud Tasks will attempt the task maxAttempts times (that is, if the first attempt fails, then there will be maxAttempts - 1 retries). Must be >= -1. If unspecified when the queue is created, Cloud Tasks will pick the default. -1 indicates unlimited attempts.
	max_backoff string		A task will be scheduled for retry between minBackoff and maxBackoff duration after it fails, if the queue's RetryConfig specifies that the task should be retried.
	max_doublings integer		The time between retries will double maxDoublings times. A task's retry interval starts at minBackoff, then doubles maxDoublings times, then increases linearly, and finally retries retries at intervals of maxBackoff up to maxAttempts times.
	max_retry_duration string		If positive, maxRetryDuration specifies the time limit for retrying a failed task, measured from when the task was first attempted. Once maxRetryDuration time has passed and the task has been attempted maxAttempts times, no further attempts will be made and the task will be deleted. If zero, then the task age is unlimited.
	min_backoff string		A task will be scheduled for retry between minBackoff and maxBackoff duration after it fails, if the queue's RetryConfig specifies that the task should be retried.
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
status string			The current state of the queue. Some valid choices include: "RUNNING", "PAUSED", "DISABLED"

Notes

Note

• 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.

Examples

- name: create a queue
  gcp_cloudtasks_queue:
    name: test_object
    location: us-central1
    project: test_project
    auth_kind: serviceaccount
    service_account_file: "/tmp/auth.pem"
    state: present

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key		Returned	Description
appEngineRoutingOverride complex		success	Overrides for task-level appEngineRouting. These settings apply only to App Engine tasks in this queue .
	host string	success	The host that the task is sent to.
	instance string	success	App instance. By default, the task is sent to an instance which is available when the task is attempted.
	service string	success	App service. By default, the task is sent to the service which is the default service when the task is attempted.
	version string	success	App version. By default, the task is sent to the version which is the default version when the task is attempted.
location string		success	The location of the queue.
name string		success	The queue name.
rateLimits complex		success	Rate limits for task dispatches. The queue's actual dispatch rate is the result of: * Number of tasks in the queue * User-specified throttling: rateLimits, retryConfig, and the queue's state. * System throttling due to 429 (Too Many Requests) or 503 (Service Unavailable) responses from the worker, high error rates, or to smooth sudden large traffic spikes.
	maxBurstSize integer	success	The max burst size. Max burst size limits how fast tasks in queue are processed when many tasks are in the queue and the rate is high. This field allows the queue to have a high rate so processing starts shortly after a task is enqueued, but still limits resource usage when many tasks are enqueued in a short period of time.
	maxConcurrentDispatches integer	success	The maximum number of concurrent tasks that Cloud Tasks allows to be dispatched for this queue. After this threshold has been reached, Cloud Tasks stops dispatching tasks until the number of concurrent requests decreases.
	maxDispatchesPerSecond integer	success	The maximum rate at which tasks are dispatched from this queue. If unspecified when the queue is created, Cloud Tasks will pick the default.
retryConfig complex		success	Settings that determine the retry behavior.
	maxAttempts integer	success	Number of attempts per task. Cloud Tasks will attempt the task maxAttempts times (that is, if the first attempt fails, then there will be maxAttempts - 1 retries). Must be >= -1. If unspecified when the queue is created, Cloud Tasks will pick the default. -1 indicates unlimited attempts.
	maxBackoff string	success	A task will be scheduled for retry between minBackoff and maxBackoff duration after it fails, if the queue's RetryConfig specifies that the task should be retried.
	maxDoublings integer	success	The time between retries will double maxDoublings times. A task's retry interval starts at minBackoff, then doubles maxDoublings times, then increases linearly, and finally retries retries at intervals of maxBackoff up to maxAttempts times.
	maxRetryDuration string	success	If positive, maxRetryDuration specifies the time limit for retrying a failed task, measured from when the task was first attempted. Once maxRetryDuration time has passed and the task has been attempted maxAttempts times, no further attempts will be made and the task will be deleted. If zero, then the task age is unlimited.
	minBackoff string	success	A task will be scheduled for retry between minBackoff and maxBackoff duration after it fails, if the queue's RetryConfig specifies that the task should be retried.
	purgeTime string	success	The last time this queue was purged.
status string		success	The current state of the queue.
