Synopsis ¶

Gather info for GCP GlobalForwardingRule
This module was called gcp_compute_global_forwarding_rule_facts before Ansible 2.9. The usage has not changed.

Aliases: gcp_compute_global_forwarding_rule_facts

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.
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.
filters list		A list of filter value pairs. Available filters are listed here https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/topic/filters. Each additional filter in the list will act be added as an AND condition (filter1 and filter2) .
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.

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: get info on a global forwarding rule
  gcp_compute_global_forwarding_rule_info:
    filters:
    - name = test_object
    project: test_project
    auth_kind: serviceaccount
    service_account_file: "/tmp/auth.pem"

Return Values ¶

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

Key		Returned	Description
resources complex		always	List of resources
	creationTimestamp string	success	Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
	description string	success	An optional description of this resource. Provide this property when you create the resource.
	id integer	success	The unique identifier for the resource.
	IPAddress string	success	The IP address that this forwarding rule is serving on behalf of. Addresses are restricted based on the forwarding rule's load balancing scheme (EXTERNAL or INTERNAL) and scope (global or regional). When the load balancing scheme is EXTERNAL, for global forwarding rules, the address must be a global IP, and for regional forwarding rules, the address must live in the same region as the forwarding rule. If this field is empty, an ephemeral IPv4 address from the same scope (global or regional) will be assigned. A regional forwarding rule supports IPv4 only. A global forwarding rule supports either IPv4 or IPv6. When the load balancing scheme is INTERNAL, this can only be an RFC 1918 IP address belonging to the network/subnet configured for the forwarding rule. By default, if this field is empty, an ephemeral internal IP address will be automatically allocated from the IP range of the subnet or network configured for this forwarding rule. An address can be specified either by a literal IP address or a URL reference to an existing Address resource. The following examples are all valid: * 100.1.2.3 * https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/project/regions/region/addresses/address * projects/project/regions/region/addresses/address * regions/region/addresses/address * global/addresses/address * address .
	IPProtocol string	success	The IP protocol to which this rule applies. Valid options are TCP, UDP, ESP, AH, SCTP or ICMP. When the load balancing scheme is INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED, only TCP is valid.
	ipVersion string	success	The IP Version that will be used by this global forwarding rule. Valid options are IPV4 or IPV6.
	loadBalancingScheme string	success	This signifies what the GlobalForwardingRule will be used for. The value of INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED means that this will be used for Internal Global HTTP(S) LB. The value of EXTERNAL means that this will be used for External Global Load Balancing (HTTP(S) LB, External TCP/UDP LB, SSL Proxy) NOTE: Currently global forwarding rules cannot be used for INTERNAL load balancing.
	name string	success	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.
	network dictionary	success	This field is not used for external load balancing. For INTERNAL_SELF_MANAGED load balancing, this field identifies the network that the load balanced IP should belong to for this global forwarding rule. If this field is not specified, the default network will be used.
	portRange string	success	This field is used along with the target field for TargetHttpProxy, TargetHttpsProxy, TargetSslProxy, TargetTcpProxy, TargetVpnGateway, TargetPool, TargetInstance. Applicable only when IPProtocol is TCP, UDP, or SCTP, only packets addressed to ports in the specified range will be forwarded to target. Forwarding rules with the same [IPAddress, IPProtocol] pair must have disjoint port ranges. Some types of forwarding target have constraints on the acceptable ports: * TargetHttpProxy: 80, 8080 * TargetHttpsProxy: 443 * TargetTcpProxy: 25, 43, 110, 143, 195, 443, 465, 587, 700, 993, 995, 1883, 5222 * TargetSslProxy: 25, 43, 110, 143, 195, 443, 465, 587, 700, 993, 995, 1883, 5222 * TargetVpnGateway: 500, 4500 .
	target string	success	The URL of the target resource to receive the matched traffic. The forwarded traffic must be of a type appropriate to the target object.
