google.cloud.gcp_kms_crypto_key module – Creates a GCP CryptoKey

Note

This module is part of the google.cloud collection (version 1.0.2).

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 google.cloud. You need further requirements to be able to use this module, see Requirements for details.

To use it in a playbook, specify: google.cloud.gcp_kms_crypto_key.

Synopsis 

A `CryptoKey` represents a logical key that can be used for cryptographic operations.

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	Comments
auth_kind string / required	The type of credential used. Choices: `"application"` `"machineaccount"` `"serviceaccount"`
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.
key_ring string / required	The KeyRing that this key belongs to. Format: `’projects/{{project}}/locations/{{location}}/keyRings/{{keyRing}}’`.
labels dictionary	Labels with user-defined metadata to apply to this resource.
name string / required	The resource name for the CryptoKey.
project string	The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
purpose string	Immutable purpose of CryptoKey. See https://cloud.google.com/kms/docs/reference/rest/v1/projects.locations.keyRings.cryptoKeys#CryptoKeyPurpose for inputs. Some valid choices include: “ENCRYPT_DECRYPT”, “ASYMMETRIC_SIGN”, “ASYMMETRIC_DECRYPT” Default: `"ENCRYPT_DECRYPT"`
rotation_period string	Every time this period passes, generate a new CryptoKeyVersion and set it as the primary. The first rotation will take place after the specified period. The rotation period has the format of a decimal number with up to 9 fractional digits, followed by the letter `s` (seconds). It must be greater than a day (ie, 86400).
scopes list / elements=string	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.
skip_initial_version_creation boolean	If set to true, the request will create a CryptoKey without any CryptoKeyVersions. You must use the `google_kms_key_ring_import_job` resource to import the CryptoKeyVersion. Choices: `false` ← (default) `true`
state string	Whether the given object should exist in GCP Choices: `"present"` ← (default) `"absent"`
version_template dictionary	A template describing settings for new crypto key versions.
algorithm string / required	The algorithm to use when creating a version based on this template. See the [algorithm reference](https://cloud.google.com/kms/docs/reference/rest/v1/CryptoKeyVersionAlgorithm) for possible inputs.
protection_level string	The protection level to use when creating a version based on this template. Some valid choices include: “SOFTWARE”, “HSM”

API Reference: https://cloud.google.com/kms/docs/reference/rest/v1/projects.locations.keyRings.cryptoKeys
Creating a key: https://cloud.google.com/kms/docs/creating-keys#create_a_key
for authentication, you can set service_account_file using the gcp_service_account_file env variable.
for authentication, you can set service_account_contents using the 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.
