New in version 2.5.
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| alias |
The name of an alias (CNAME) that is used in a distribution. This is used to effectively reference a distribution by its alias as an alias can only be used by one distribution per AWS account. This variable avoids having to provide the distribution_id as well as the e_tag, or caller_reference of an existing distribution.
|
|
| aliases |
A list[] of domain name aliases (CNAMEs) as strings to be used for the distribution. Each alias must be unique across all distribution for the AWS account.
|
|
| aws_access_key |
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.
aliases: ec2_access_key, access_key |
|
| aws_secret_key |
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.
aliases: ec2_secret_key, secret_key |
|
| cache_behaviors |
A config element that is a list[] of complex cache behavior objects to be specified for the distribution. The order of the list is preserved across runs unless
purge_cache_behavior is enabled. Each cache behavior comprises the attributes path_pattern target_origin_id forwarded_values query_string cookies forward whitelisted_names headers[] query_string_cache_keys[] trusted_signers enabled items[] viewer_protocol_policy min_ttl allowed_methods items[] cached_methods[] smooth_streaming default_ttl max_ttl compress lambda_function_associations[] |
|
| caller_reference |
A unique identifier for creating and updating cloudfront distributions. Each caller reference must be unique across all distributions. e.g. a caller reference used in a web distribution cannot be reused in a streaming distribution. This parameter can be used instead of distribution_id to reference an existing distribution. If not specified, this defaults to a datetime stamp of the format 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.ffffff'.
|
|
| comment |
A comment that describes the cloudfront distribution. If not specified, it defaults to a generic message that it has been created with Ansible, and a datetime stamp.
|
|
| custom_error_responses |
A config element that is a list[] of complex custom error responses to be specified for the distribution. This attribute configures custom http error messages returned to the user. Each custom error response object comprises the attributes error_code reponse_page_path response_code error_caching_min_ttl
|
|
| default_cache_behavior |
A config element that is a complex object specifying the default cache behavior of the distribution. If not specified, the target_origin_id is defined as the target_origin_id of the first valid cache_behavior in cache_behaviors with defaults. The default cache behavior comprises the attributes target_origin_id forwarded_values query_string cookies forward whitelisted_names headers[] query_string_cache_keys[] trusted_signers enabled items[] viewer_protocol_policy min_ttl allowed_methods items[] cached_methods[] smooth_streaming default_ttl max_ttl compress lambda_function_associations[] lambda_function_arn event_type
|
|
| default_origin_domain_name |
The domain name to use for an origin if no origins have been specified. Should only be used on a first run of generating a distribution and not on subsequent runs. Should not be used in conjunction with distribution_id, caller_reference or alias.
|
|
| default_origin_path |
The default origin path to specify for an origin if no origins have been specified. Defaults to empty if not specified.
|
|
| default_root_object |
A config element that specifies the path to request when the user requests the origin. e.g. if specified as 'index.html', this maps to www.example.com/index.html when www.example.com is called by the user. This prevents the entire distribution origin from being exposed at the root.
|
|
| distribution_id |
The id of the cloudfront distribution. This parameter can be exchanged with alias or caller_reference and is used in conjunction with e_tag.
|
|
| e_tag |
A unique identifier of a modified or existing distribution. Used in conjunction with distribution_id. Is determined automatically if not specified.
|
|
| ec2_url |
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.
|
|
|
enabled

|
| http_version |
"aws defaults this to \u0027http2\u0027"
|

|
|
ipv6_enabled
bool |
|

|
| logging |

|
|
| origins |
A config element that is a list[] of complex origin objects to be specified for the distribution. Used for creating and updating distributions. Each origin item comprises the attributes id domain_name (defaults to default_origin_domain_name if not specified) origin_path (defaults to default_origin_path if not specified) custom_headers[] header_name header_value s3_origin_access_identity_enabled custom_origin_config http_port https_port origin_protocol_policy origin_ssl_protocols[] origin_read_timeout origin_keepalive_timeout
|
|
| price_class |
"aws defaults this to \u0027PriceClass_All\u0027"
|
A string that specifies the pricing class of the distribution. As per https://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/pricing/ price_class=PriceClass_100 consists of the areas United States Canada Europe price_class=PriceClass_200 consists of the areas United States Canada Europe Hong Kong, Philippines, S.
