Choices/Defaults |
Comments |
api_key
string
|
|
Token used to authenticate with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_API_KEY environment variable.
|
api_version
string
|
Default:
"v1"
|
Use to specify the API version. Use to create, delete, or discover an object without providing a full resource definition. Use in conjunction with kind, name, and namespace to identify a specific object. If resource definition is provided, the apiVersion from the resource_definition will override this option.
aliases: api, version
|
append_hash
boolean
added in 2.8 |
|
Whether to append a hash to a resource name for immutability purposes
Applies only to ConfigMap and Secret resources
The parameter will be silently ignored for other resource kinds
The full definition of an object is needed to generate the hash - this means that deleting an object created with append_hash will only work if the same object is passed with state=absent (alternatively, just use state=absent with the name including the generated hash and append_hash=no)
|
apply
boolean
added in 2.9 |
|
apply compares the desired resource definition with the previously supplied resource definition, ignoring properties that are automatically generated
apply works better with Services than 'force=yes'
mutually exclusive with merge_type
|
ca_cert
path
|
|
Path to a CA certificate used to authenticate with the API. The full certificate chain must be provided to avoid certificate validation errors. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_SSL_CA_CERT environment variable.
aliases: ssl_ca_cert
|
client_cert
path
|
|
Path to a certificate used to authenticate with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_CERT_FILE environment variable.
aliases: cert_file
|
client_key
path
|
|
Path to a key file used to authenticate with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_KEY_FILE environment variable.
aliases: key_file
|
context
string
|
|
The name of a context found in the config file. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_CONTEXT environment variable.
|
force
boolean
|
|
If set to yes , and state is present , an existing object will be replaced.
|
host
string
|
|
Provide a URL for accessing the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_HOST environment variable.
|
kind
string
|
|
Use to specify an object model. Use to create, delete, or discover an object without providing a full resource definition. Use in conjunction with api_version, name, and namespace to identify a specific object. If resource definition is provided, the kind from the resource_definition will override this option.
|
kubeconfig
path
|
|
Path to an existing Kubernetes config file. If not provided, and no other connection options are provided, the openshift client will attempt to load the default configuration file from ~/.kube/config.json. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_KUBECONFIG environment variable.
|
merge_type
list
added in 2.7 |
Choices:
- json
- merge
- strategic-merge
|
Whether to override the default patch merge approach with a specific type. By default, the strategic merge will typically be used.
For example, Custom Resource Definitions typically aren't updatable by the usual strategic merge. You may want to use merge if you see "strategic merge patch format is not supported"
Requires openshift >= 0.6.2
If more than one merge_type is given, the merge_types will be tried in order
If openshift >= 0.6.2, this defaults to ['strategic-merge', 'merge'] , which is ideal for using the same parameters on resource kinds that combine Custom Resources and built-in resources. For openshift < 0.6.2, the default is simply strategic-merge .
mutually exclusive with apply
|
name
string
|
|
Use to specify an object name. Use to create, delete, or discover an object without providing a full resource definition. Use in conjunction with api_version, kind and namespace to identify a specific object. If resource definition is provided, the metadata.name value from the resource_definition will override this option.
|
namespace
string
|
|
Use to specify an object namespace. Useful when creating, deleting, or discovering an object without providing a full resource definition. Use in conjunction with api_version, kind, and name to identify a specfic object. If resource definition is provided, the metadata.namespace value from the resource_definition will override this option.
|
password
string
|
|
Provide a password for authenticating with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PASSWORD environment variable.
Please read the description of the username option for a discussion of when this option is applicable.
|
proxy
-
added in 2.9 |
|
The URL of an HTTP proxy to use for the connection. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY environment variable.
Please note that this module does not pick up typical proxy settings from the environment (e.g. HTTP_PROXY).
|
resource_definition
-
|
|
Provide a valid YAML definition (either as a string, list, or dict) for an object when creating or updating. NOTE: kind, api_version, name, and namespace will be overwritten by corresponding values found in the provided resource_definition.
aliases: definition, inline
|
src
path
|
|
Provide a path to a file containing a valid YAML definition of an object or objects to be created or updated. Mutually exclusive with resource_definition. NOTE: kind, api_version, name, and namespace will be overwritten by corresponding values found in the configuration read in from the src file.
Reads from the local file system. To read from the Ansible controller's file system, including vaulted files, use the file lookup plugin or template lookup plugin, combined with the from_yaml filter, and pass the result to resource_definition. See Examples below.
|
state
string
|
Choices:
- absent
present ←
|
Determines if an object should be created, patched, or deleted. When set to present , an object will be created, if it does not already exist. If set to absent , an existing object will be deleted. If set to present , an existing object will be patched, if its attributes differ from those specified using resource_definition or src.
|
username
string
|
|
Provide a username for authenticating with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_USERNAME environment variable.
Please note that this only works with clusters configured to use HTTP Basic Auth. If your cluster has a different form of authentication (e.g. OAuth2 in OpenShift), this option will not work as expected and you should look into the k8s_auth module, as that might do what you need.
|
validate
-
added in 2.8 |
|
how (if at all) to validate the resource definition against the kubernetes schema. Requires the kubernetes-validate python module
|
|
fail_on_error
boolean
/ required
|
|
whether to fail on validation errors.
|
|
strict
boolean
|
|
whether to fail when passing unexpected properties
|
|
version

|
|

aliases: verify_ssl
|
wait
boolean
added in 2.8 |
|
Whether to wait for certain resource kinds to end up in the desired state. By default the module exits once Kubernetes has received the request
Implemented for state=present for Deployment , DaemonSet and Pod , and for state=absent for all resource kinds.
For resource kinds without an implementation, wait returns immediately unless wait_condition is set.
|
wait_condition
-
added in 2.8 |
|
Specifies a custom condition on the status to wait for. Ignored if wait is not set or is set to False.
|
|
reason
-
|
|
The value of the reason field in your desired condition
For example, if a Deployment is paused, The Progressing c(type) will have the DeploymentPaused reason.
The possible reasons in a condition are specific to each resource type in Kubernetes. See the API documentation of the status field for a given resource to see possible choices.
|
|
status
-
|
|
The value of the status field in your desired condition.
For example, if a Deployment is paused, the Progressing type will have the Unknown status.
|
|
type
-
|
|
The type of condition to wait for. For example, the Pod resource will set the Ready condition (among others)
Required if you are specifying a wait_condition . If left empty, the wait_condition field will be ignored.
The possible types for a condition are specific to each resource type in Kubernetes. See the API documentation of the status field for a given resource to see possible choices.
