  • boto
  • boto3
  • python >= 2.6

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

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

dead_letter_arn

-

added in 2.3

The parent object that contains the target Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon SQS queue or Amazon SNS topic.

description

-

A short, user-defined function description. Lambda does not use this value. Assign a meaningful description as you see fit.

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.

environment_variables

-

added in 2.3

A dictionary of environment variables the Lambda function is given.


aliases: environment

handler

-

The function within your code that Lambda calls to begin execution

memory_size

-

Default:

128

The amount of memory, in MB, your Lambda function is given

name

- / required

The name you want to assign to the function you are uploading. Cannot be changed.

profile

-

added in 1.6

Uses a boto profile. Only works with boto >= 2.24.0.

region

-

The AWS region to use. If not specified then the value of the AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION environment variable, if any, is used. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region


aliases: aws_region, ec2_region

role

-

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role that Lambda assumes when it executes your function to access any other Amazon Web Services (AWS) resources. You may use the bare ARN if the role belongs to the same AWS account.

Required when state=present

runtime

-

The runtime environment for the Lambda function you are uploading. Required when creating a function. Use parameters as described in boto3 docs. Current example runtime environments are nodejs, nodejs4.3, java8 or python2.7

Required when state=present

s3_bucket

-

Amazon S3 bucket name where the .zip file containing your deployment package is stored

If state=present then either zip_file or s3_bucket must be present.

s3_bucket and s3_key are required together

s3_key

-

The Amazon S3 object (the deployment package) key name you want to upload

s3_bucket and s3_key are required together

s3_object_version

-

The Amazon S3 object (the deployment package) version you want to upload.

security_token

-

added in 1.6

AWS STS security token. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN environment variable is used.


aliases: access_token

state

-

  • present

  • absent

Create or delete Lambda function

tags

-

added in 2.5

tag dict to apply to the function (requires botocore 1.5.40 or above)

timeout

-

Default:

3

The function maximum execution time in seconds after which Lambda should terminate the function.

validate_certs

boolean

added in 1.5

  • no
  • yes

When set to "no", SSL certificates will not be validated for boto versions >= 2.6.0.

vpc_security_group_ids

-

List of VPC security group IDs to associate with the Lambda function. Required when vpc_subnet_ids is used.

vpc_subnet_ids

-

List of subnet IDs to run Lambda function in. Use this option if you need to access resources in your VPC. Leave empty if you don't want to run the function in a VPC.

zip_file

-

A .zip file containing your deployment package

If state=present then either zip_file or s3_bucket must be present.


aliases: src



Notes

Note

  • If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence AWS_URL or EC2_URL, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID or AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or AWS_SECRET_KEY or EC2_SECRET_KEY, AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN, AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION
  • Ansible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html
  • AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION can be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file


Examples

# Create Lambda functions
- name: looped creation
  lambda:
    name: '{{ item.name }}'
    state: present
    zip_file: '{{ item.zip_file }}'
    runtime: 'python2.7'
    role: 'arn:aws:iam::987654321012:role/lambda_basic_execution'
    handler: 'hello_python.my_handler'
    vpc_subnet_ids:
    - subnet-123abcde
    - subnet-edcba321
    vpc_security_group_ids:
    - sg-123abcde
    - sg-edcba321
    environment_variables: '{{ item.env_vars }}'
    tags:
      key1: 'value1'
  with_items:
    - name: HelloWorld
      zip_file: hello-code.zip
      env_vars:
        key1: "first"
