  • google-auth >= 1.3.0

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
alternative_location_id
string
Only applicable to STANDARD_HA tier which protects the instance against zonal failures by provisioning it across two zones.
If provided, it must be a different zone from the one provided in [locationId].
auth_kind
string / required
    Choices:
  • application
  • machineaccount
  • serviceaccount
The type of credential used.
authorized_network
string
The full name of the Google Compute Engine network to which the instance is connected. If left unspecified, the default network will be used.
display_name
string
An arbitrary and optional user-provided name for the instance.
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
Resource labels to represent user provided metadata.
location_id
string
The zone where the instance will be provisioned. If not provided, the service will choose a zone for the instance. For STANDARD_HA tier, instances will be created across two zones for protection against zonal failures. If [alternativeLocationId] is also provided, it must be different from [locationId].
memory_size_gb
integer / required
Redis memory size in GiB.
name
string / required
The ID of the instance or a fully qualified identifier for the instance. .
project
string
The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
redis_configs
dictionary
Redis configuration parameters, according to http://redis.io/topics/config.
redis_version
string
The version of Redis software. If not provided, latest supported version will be used. Currently, the supported values are: - REDIS_4_0 for Redis 4.0 compatibility - REDIS_3_2 for Redis 3.2 compatibility .
region
string / required
The name of the Redis region of the instance.
reserved_ip_range
string
The CIDR range of internal addresses that are reserved for this instance. If not provided, the service will choose an unused /29 block, for example, 10.0.0.0/29 or 192.168.0.0/29. Ranges must be unique and non-overlapping with existing subnets in an authorized network.
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
tier
string
Default:
"BASIC"
The service tier of the instance. Must be one of these values: - BASIC: standalone instance - STANDARD_HA: highly available primary/replica instances .
Some valid choices include: "BASIC", "STANDARD_HA"

  • 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.
