Manage Services on Kubernetes
- Use Kubernetes Python SDK to manage Services on Kubernetes
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
- python >= 3.9
- kubernetes >= 24.2.0
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
---|---|---|---|
api_key
string
|
Token used to authenticate with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_API_KEY environment variable.
|
||
apply
boolean
|
|
apply compares the desired resource definition with the previously supplied resource definition, ignoring properties that are automatically generatedapply works better with Services than 'force=yes'mutually exclusive with
merge_type |
|
ca_cert
path
|
Path to a CA certificate used to authenticate with the API. The full certificate chain must be provided to avoid certificate validation errors. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_SSL_CA_CERT environment variable.
aliases: ssl_ca_cert |
||
client_cert
path
|
Path to a certificate used to authenticate with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_CERT_FILE environment variable.
aliases: cert_file |
||
client_key
path
|
Path to a key file used to authenticate with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_KEY_FILE environment variable.
aliases: key_file |
||
context
string
|
The name of a context found in the config file. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_CONTEXT environment variable.
|
||
force
boolean
|
|
If set to
yes , and state is present , an existing object will be replaced. |
|
host
string
|
Provide a URL for accessing the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_HOST environment variable.
|
||
impersonate_groups
list
/ elements=string
added in 2.3.0
|
Group(s) to impersonate for the operation.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_IMPERSONATE_GROUPS environment. Example: Group1,Group2
|
||
impersonate_user
string
added in 2.3.0
|
Username to impersonate for the operation.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_IMPERSONATE_USER environment.
|
||
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.
|
||
merge_type
list
/ elements=string
|
|
Whether to override the default patch merge approach with a specific type. By default, the strategic merge will typically be used.
For example, Custom Resource Definitions typically aren't updatable by the usual strategic merge. You may want to use
merge if you see "strategic merge patch format is not supported"If more than one
merge_type is given, the merge_types will be tried in orderThis defaults to
['strategic-merge', 'merge'] , which is ideal for using the same parameters on resource kinds that combine Custom Resources and built-in resources. |
|
name
string
/ required
|
Use to specify a Service object name.
|
||
namespace
string
/ required
|
Use to specify a Service object namespace.
|
||
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. |
||
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
|
|
ports
list
/ elements=dictionary
|
A list of ports to expose.
|
||
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.
|
||
user_agent
string
|
String representing the user-agent you want, such as foo/1.0.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY_HEADERS_USER_AGENT environment.
|
||
resource_definition
-
|
Provide a valid YAML definition (either as a string, list, or dict) for an object when creating or updating.
NOTE: kind, api_version, name, and namespace will be overwritten by corresponding values found in the provided resource_definition.
aliases: definition, inline |
||
selector
dictionary
|
Label selectors identify objects this Service should apply to.
|
||
src
path
|
Provide a path to a file containing a valid YAML definition of an object or objects to be created or updated. Mutually exclusive with resource_definition. NOTE: kind, api_version, name, and namespace will be overwritten by corresponding values found in the configuration read in from the src file.
Reads from the local file system. To read from the Ansible controller's file system, including vaulted files, use the file lookup plugin or template lookup plugin, combined with the from_yaml filter, and pass the result to resource_definition. See Examples below.
The URL to manifest files that can be used to create the resource. Added in version 2.4.0.
Mutually exclusive with template in case of kubernetes.core.k8s module.
|
||
state
string
|
|
Determines if an object should be created, patched, or deleted. When set to
present , an object will be created, if it does not already exist. If set to absent , an existing object will be deleted. If set to present , an existing object will be patched, if its attributes differ from those specified using resource_definition or src. |
|
type
string
|
|
Specifies the type of Service to create.
|
|
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 |
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.
