python >= 2.6
requests >= 2.18.4
google-auth >= 1.3.0

Parameters 

Parameter	Comments
access_token string	An OAuth2 access token if credential type is accesstoken.
auth_kind string / required	The type of credential used. Choices: `"application"` `"machineaccount"` `"serviceaccount"` `"accesstoken"`
encryption_config dictionary	Encryption configuration for the database .
kms_key_name string / required	Fully qualified name of the KMS key to use to encrypt this database. This key must exist in the same location as the Spanner Database.
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.
extra_statements list / elements=string	An optional list of DDL statements to run inside the newly created database. Statements can create tables, indexes, etc. These statements execute atomically with the creation of the database: if there is an error in any statement, the database is not created.
instance dictionary / required	The instance to create the database on. This field represents a link to a Instance resource in GCP. It can be specified in two ways. First, you can place a dictionary with key ‘name’ and value of your resource’s name Alternatively, you can add `register: name-of-resource` to a gcp_spanner_instance task and then set this instance field to “{{ name-of-resource }}”
name string / required	A unique identifier for the database, which cannot be changed after the instance is created. Values are of the form [a-z][-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9].
project string	The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
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.
