community.aws.aws_waf_condition module – Create and delete WAF Conditions

Note

This module is part of the community.aws collection (version 2.6.1).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.aws.

To use it in a playbook, specify: community.aws.aws_waf_condition.

New in version 1.0.0: of community.aws

Synopsis

• Read the AWS documentation for WAF https://aws.amazon.com/documentation/waf/

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

• python >= 3.6

• boto3 >= 1.15.0

• botocore >= 1.18.0

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
aws_access_key aliases: ec2_access_key, access_key string	AWS access key. If not set then the value of the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY environment variable is used. If profile is set this parameter is ignored. Passing the aws_access_key and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01.
aws_ca_bundle path	The location of a CA Bundle to use when validating SSL certificates. Not used by boto 2 based modules. Note: The CA Bundle is read ‘module’ side and may need to be explicitly copied from the controller if not run locally.
aws_config dictionary	A dictionary to modify the botocore configuration. Parameters can be found at https://botocore.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/config.html#botocore.config.Config. Only the ‘user_agent’ key is used for boto modules. See http://boto.cloudhackers.com/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html#boto for more boto configuration.
aws_secret_key aliases: ec2_secret_key, secret_key string	AWS secret key. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_KEY, or EC2_SECRET_KEY environment variable is used. If profile is set this parameter is ignored. Passing the aws_secret_key and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01.
debug_botocore_endpoint_logs boolean	Use a botocore.endpoint logger to parse the unique (rather than total) “resource:action” API calls made during a task, outputing the set to the resource_actions key in the task results. Use the aws_resource_action callback to output to total list made during a playbook. The ANSIBLE_DEBUG_BOTOCORE_LOGS environment variable may also be used. Choices: no ← (default) yes
ec2_url aliases: aws_endpoint_url, endpoint_url string	URL to use to connect to EC2 or your Eucalyptus cloud (by default the module will use EC2 endpoints). Ignored for modules where region is required. Must be specified for all other modules if region is not used. If not set then the value of the EC2_URL environment variable, if any, is used.
filters list / elements=dictionary	A list of the filters against which to match. For type=byte, valid keys are field_to_match, position, header, transformation and target_string. For type=geo, the only valid key is country. For type=ip, the only valid key is ip_address. For type=regex, valid keys are field_to_match, transformation and regex_pattern. For type=size, valid keys are field_to_match, transformation, comparison and size. For type=sql, valid keys are field_to_match and transformation. For type=xss, valid keys are field_to_match and transformation. Required when state=present.
comparison string	What type of comparison to perform. Only valid key when type=size. Choices: EQ NE LE LT GE GT
country string	Value of geo constraint (typically a two letter country code). The only valid key when type=geo.
field_to_match string	The field upon which to perform the match. Valid when type=byte, type=regex, type=sql or type=xss. Choices: uri query_string header method body
header string	Which specific header should be matched. Required when field_to_match=header. Valid when type=byte.
ip_address string	An IP Address or CIDR to match. The only valid key when type=ip.
position string	Where in the field the match needs to occur. Only valid when type=byte. Choices: exactly starts_with ends_with contains contains_word
regex_pattern dictionary	A dict describing the regular expressions used to perform the match. Only valid when type=regex.
name string	A name to describe the set of patterns.
regex_strings list / elements=string	A list of regular expressions to match.
size integer	The size of the field (in bytes). Only valid key when type=size.
target_string string	The string to search for. May be up to 50 bytes. Valid when type=byte.
transformation string	A transform to apply on the field prior to performing the match. Valid when type=byte, type=regex, type=sql or type=xss. Choices: none compress_white_space html_entity_decode lowercase cmd_line url_decode
name string / required	Name of the Web Application Firewall condition to manage.
profile aliases: aws_profile string	Using profile will override aws_access_key, aws_secret_key and security_token and support for passing them at the same time as profile has been deprecated. aws_access_key, aws_secret_key and security_token will be made mutually exclusive with profile after 2022-06-01.
purge_filters boolean	Whether to remove existing filters from a condition if not passed in filters. Choices: no ← (default) yes
region aliases: aws_region, ec2_region string	The AWS region to use. If not specified then the value of the AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION environment variable, if any, is used. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region

type string / required	The type of matching to perform. Choices: byte geo ip regex size sql xss
validate_certs boolean	When set to “no”, SSL certificates will not be validated for communication with the AWS APIs. Choices: no yes ← (default)
waf_regional boolean	Whether to use waf-regional module. Choices: no ← (default) yes

Notes

Note

• If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence AWS_URL or EC2_URL, AWS_PROFILE or AWS_DEFAULT_PROFILE, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID or AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or AWS_SECRET_KEY or EC2_SECRET_KEY, AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN, AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION, AWS_CA_BUNDLE

• When no credentials are explicitly provided the AWS SDK (boto3) that Ansible uses will fall back to its configuration files (typically ~/.aws/credentials). See https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/guide/credentials.html for more information.

• Modules based on the original AWS SDK (boto) may read their default configuration from different files. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html for more information.

• AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION can be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be defined in the configuration files.
