string
/ required
|
Use to specify an object model.
Use in conjunction with api_version, name, and namespace to identify a specific object.
|
||
kubeconfig
raw
|
Path to an existing Kubernetes config file. If not provided, and no other connection options are provided, the Kubernetes client will attempt to load the default configuration file from ~/.kube/config. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_KUBECONFIG environment variable.
Multiple Kubernetes config file can be provided using separator ';' for Windows platform or ':' for others platforms.
The kubernetes configuration can be provided as dictionary. This feature requires a python kubernetes client version >= 17.17.0. Added in version 2.2.0.
|
||
name
string
/ required
|
Use to specify an object name.
Use in conjunction with api_version, kind, and namespace to identify a specific object.
|
||
namespace
string
|
Use to specify an object namespace.
Use in conjunction with api_version, kind, and name to identify a specific object.
|
||
no_proxy
string
added in 2.3.0
|
The comma separated list of hosts/domains/IP/CIDR that shouldn't go through proxy. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_NO_PROXY environment variable.
Please note that this module does not pick up typical proxy settings from the environment (e.g. NO_PROXY).
This feature requires kubernetes>=19.15.0. When kubernetes library is less than 19.15.0, it fails even no_proxy set in correct.
example value is "localhost,.local,.example.com,127.0.0.1,127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16"
|
||
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. |
||
patch
list
/ elements=dictionary
/ required
|
List of JSON patch operations.
|
||
persist_config
boolean
|
|
Whether or not to save the kube config refresh tokens. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PERSIST_CONFIG environment variable.
When the k8s context is using a user credentials with refresh tokens (like oidc or gke/gcloud auth), the token is refreshed by the k8s python client library but not saved by default. So the old refresh token can expire and the next auth might fail. Setting this flag to true will tell the k8s python client to save the new refresh token to the kube config file.
Default to false.
Please note that the current version of the k8s python client library does not support setting this flag to True yet.
The fix for this k8s python library is here: kubernetes-client/python-base#169
|
|
proxy
string
|
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).
|
||
proxy_headers
dictionary
added in 2.0.0
|
The Header used for the HTTP proxy.
Documentation can be found here https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/urllib3.util.html?highlight=proxy_headers#urllib3.util.make_headers.
|
||
basic_auth
string
|
Colon-separated username:password for basic authentication header.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY_HEADERS_BASIC_AUTH environment.
|
||
proxy_basic_auth
string
|
Colon-separated username:password for proxy basic authentication header.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY_HEADERS_PROXY_BASIC_AUTH environment.

Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY_HEADERS_USER_AGENT environment.
|
||
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 community.okd.k8s_auth module, as that might do what you need.
|
||
validate_certs
boolean
|
|
Whether or not to verify the API server's SSL certificates. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_VERIFY_SSL environment variable.
aliases: verify_ssl |
|
wait
boolean
|
|
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
dictionary
|
Specifies a custom condition on the status to wait for.
Ignored if
wait is not set or is set to False. |
||
reason
string
|
The value of the reason field in your desired condition
For example, if a
Deployment is paused, The Progressing 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
string
|
|
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
string
|
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.
|
||
wait_sleep
integer
|
Default: 5
|
Number of seconds to sleep between checks.
|
|
wait_timeout
integer
|
Default: 120
|
How long in seconds to wait for the resource to end up in the desired state.
Ignored if
wait is not set. |
Note
- To avoid SSL certificate validation errors when
validate_certs
is True, the full certificate chain for the API server must be provided viaca_cert
or in the kubeconfig file.
