Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

attributes

string

added in 2.3 of ansible.builtin

The attributes the resulting file or directory should have.

To get supported flags look at the man page for chattr on the target system.

This string should contain the attributes in the same order as the one displayed by lsattr.

The = operator is assumed as default, otherwise + or - operators need to be included in the string.

If not set, sops will recursively search for the config file starting at the file that is encrypted or decrypted.

This corresponds to the sops --config option.

content_binary

string

The data to encrypt. Must be Base64 encoded binary data.

Please note that the module might not be idempotent if the data can be parsed as JSON or YAML.

Exactly one of content_text, content_binary, content_json and content_yaml must be specified.

content_json

dictionary

The data to encrypt. Must be a JSON dictionary.

Exactly one of content_text, content_binary, content_json and content_yaml must be specified.

content_text

string

The data to encrypt. Must be a Unicode text.

Please note that the module might not be idempotent if the text can be parsed as JSON or YAML.

Exactly one of content_text, content_binary, content_json and content_yaml must be specified.

content_yaml

dictionary

The data to encrypt. Must be a YAML dictionary.

Please note that Ansible only allows to pass data that can be represented as a JSON dictionary.

Exactly one of content_text, content_binary, content_json and content_yaml must be specified.

enable_local_keyservice

boolean

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

  • no

  • yes

Tell sops to use local key service.

This corresponds to the sops --enable-local-keyservice option.

encrypted_regex

string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

Set the encrypted key suffix.

When specified, only keys matching the regular expression will be encrypted.

This corresponds to the sops --encrypted-regex option.

encrypted_suffix

string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

Override the encrypted key suffix.

When set to an empty string, all keys will be encrypted that are not explicitly marked by unencrypted_suffix.

This corresponds to the sops --encrypted-suffix option.

encryption_context

list / elements=string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

List of KMS encryption context pairs of format key:value.

This corresponds to the sops --encryption-context option.

force

boolean

  • no

  • yes

Force rewriting the encrypted file.

gcp_kms

list / elements=string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

GCP KMS resource IDs to use.

This corresponds to the sops --gcp-kms option.

group

string

Name of the group that should own the file/directory, as would be fed to chown.

hc_vault_transit

list / elements=string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

HashiCorp Vault key URIs to use.

This corresponds to the sops --hc-vault-transit option.

keyservice

list / elements=string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

Specify key services to use next to the local one.

A key service must be specified in the form protocol://address, for example tcp://myserver.com:5000.

This corresponds to the sops --keyservice option.

kms

list / elements=string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

List of KMS ARNs to use.

This corresponds to the sops --kms option.

mode

raw

The permissions the resulting file or directory should have.

For those used to /usr/bin/chmod remember that modes are actually octal numbers. You must either add a leading zero so that Ansible's YAML parser knows it is an octal number (like 0644 or 01777) or quote it (like '644' or '1777') so Ansible receives a string and can do its own conversion from string into number.

Giving Ansible a number without following one of these rules will end up with a decimal number which will have unexpected results.

As of Ansible 1.8, the mode may be specified as a symbolic mode (for example, u+rwx or u=rw,g=r,o=r).

If mode is not specified and the destination file does not exist, the default umask on the system will be used when setting the mode for the newly created file.

If mode is not specified and the destination file does exist, the mode of the existing file will be used.

Specifying mode is the best way to ensure files are created with the correct permissions. See CVE-2020-1736 for further details.

owner

string

Name of the user that should own the file/directory, as would be fed to chown.

path

path / required

The sops encrypt file.

pgp

list / elements=string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

PGP fingerprints to use.

This corresponds to the sops --pgp option.

selevel

string

The level part of the SELinux file context.

This is the MLS/MCS attribute, sometimes known as the range.

When set to _default, it will use the level portion of the policy if available.

serole

string

The role part of the SELinux file context.

When set to _default, it will use the role portion of the policy if available.

setype

string

The type part of the SELinux file context.

When set to _default, it will use the type portion of the policy if available.

seuser

string

The user part of the SELinux file context.

By default it uses the system policy, where applicable.

When set to _default, it will use the user portion of the policy if available.

shamir_secret_sharing_threshold

integer

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

The number of distinct keys required to retrieve the data key with Shamir's Secret Sharing.

If not set here and in the sops config file, will default to 0.

This corresponds to the sops --shamir-secret-sharing-threshold option.

sops_binary

path

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

Path to the sops binary.

By default uses sops.

unencrypted_regex

string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

Set the unencrypted key suffix.

When specified, only keys matching the regular expression will be left unencrypted.

This corresponds to the sops --unencrypted-regex option.

unencrypted_suffix

string

added in 1.0.0 of community.sops

Override the unencrypted key suffix.

This corresponds to the sops --unencrypted-suffix option.

unsafe_writes

boolean

added in 2.2 of ansible.builtin

  • no

  • yes

Influence when to use atomic operation to prevent data corruption or inconsistent reads from the target file.

By default this module uses atomic operations to prevent data corruption or inconsistent reads from the target files, but sometimes systems are configured or just broken in ways that prevent this. One example is docker mounted files, which cannot be updated atomically from inside the container and can only be written in an unsafe manner.

This option allows Ansible to fall back to unsafe methods of updating files when atomic operations fail (however, it doesn't force Ansible to perform unsafe writes).

IMPORTANT! Unsafe writes are subject to race conditions and can lead to data corruption.



Notes

Note

  • Supports check_mode.
