kubernetes – Manage Kubernetes resources

New in version 2.1.


DEPRECATED

Removed in Ansible:
version: 2.9
Why: This module used the oc command line tool, where as k8s_raw goes over the REST API.
Alternative: Use k8s_raw instead.

Synopsis

  • This module can manage Kubernetes resources on an existing cluster using the Kubernetes server API. Users can specify in-line API data, or specify an existing Kubernetes YAML file.
  • Currently, this module (1) Only supports HTTP Basic Auth (2) Only supports ‘strategic merge’ for update, http://goo.gl/fCPYxT SSL certs are not working, use validate_certs=off to disable.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

api_endpoint

- / required

The IPv4 API endpoint of the Kubernetes cluster.


aliases: endpoint

certificate_authority_data

-

Certificate Authority data for Kubernetes server. Should be in either standard PEM format or base64 encoded PEM data. Note that certificate verification is broken until ansible supports a version of 'match_hostname' that can match the IP address against the CA data.

file_reference

-

Specify full path to a Kubernets YAML file to send to API endpoint. This option is mutually exclusive with 'inline_data'.

inline_data

- / required

The Kubernetes YAML data to send to the API endpoint. This option is mutually exclusive with 'file_reference'.

insecure

-

Reverts the connection to using HTTP instead of HTTPS. This option should only be used when execuing the 'kubernetes' module local to the Kubernetes cluster using the insecure local port (locahost:8080 by default).

patch_operation

-

added in 2.4

  • JSON Patch
  • Merge Patch
  • Strategic Merge Patch

Specify patch operation for Kubernetes resource update.


aliases: patch_strategy

state

- / required

  • absent
  • present

  • replace
  • update

The desired action to take on the Kubernetes data.

url_password

-

The HTTP Basic Auth password for the API endpoint. This should be set unless using the 'insecure' option.


aliases: password

url_username

-

Default:

"admin"

The HTTP Basic Auth username for the API endpoint. This should be set unless using the 'insecure' option.


aliases: username

validate_certs

boolean

  • no

  • yes

Enable/disable certificate validation. Note that this is set to false until Ansible can support IP address based certificate hostname matching (exists in >= python3.5.0).

    state: present

# Create a new namespace from a YAML file.
- name: Create a kubernetes namespace
  kubernetes:
    api_endpoint: 123.45.67.89

    file_reference: /path/to/create_namespace.yaml
    state: present

# Do the same thing, but using the insecure localhost port

  kubernetes:
    api_endpoint: 123.45.67.89
    insecure: true
