Synopsis

Gather facts about ELB target groups in AWS

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

boto
boto3
python >= 2.6

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
aws_access_key	Default: None	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	Default: None	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
ec2_url	Default: None	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.
load_balancer_arn		The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the load balancer.
names		The names of the target groups.
profile (added in 1.6)	Default: None	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
security_token (added in 1.6)	Default: None	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
target_group_arns		The Amazon Resource Names (ARN) of the target groups.
validate_certs (added in 1.5)	Choices: no yes ←	When set to "no", SSL certificates will not be validated for boto versions >= 2.6.0.

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 http://boto.readthedocs.org/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

# Gather facts about all target groups
- elb_target_group_facts:

# Gather facts about the target group attached to a particular ELB
- elb_target_group_facts:
    load_balancer_arn: "arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:ap-southeast-2:001122334455:loadbalancer/app/my-elb/aabbccddeeff"

# Gather facts about a target groups named 'tg1' and 'tg2'
- elb_target_group_facts:
    names:
      - tg1
      - tg2

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key		Returned	Description
target_groups complex		always	a list of target groups
	protocol string	always	The protocol to use for routing traffic to the targets. Sample: HTTP
	tags dict	always	The tags attached to the target group. Sample: { 'Tag': 'Example' }
	matcher dict	always	The HTTP codes to use when checking for a successful response from a target. Sample: {'http_code': '200'}
	health_check_port string	always	The port to use to connect with the target. Sample: traffic-port
	target_group_name string	always	The name of the target group. Sample: mytargetgroup
	target_group_arn string	always	The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the target group. Sample: arn:aws:elasticloadbalancing:ap-southeast-2:01234567890:targetgroup/mytargetgroup/aabbccddee0044332211
	deregistration_delay_timeout_seconds int	always	The amount time for Elastic Load Balancing to wait before changing the state of a deregistering target from draining to unused. Sample: 300
	healthy_threshold_count int	always	The number of consecutive health checks successes required before considering an unhealthy target healthy. Sample: 5
	port int	always	The port on which the targets are listening. Sample: 80
	load_balancer_arns list	always	The Amazon Resource Names (ARN) of the load balancers that route traffic to this target group.
	health_check_protocol string	always	The protocol to use to connect with the target. Sample: HTTP
	unhealthy_threshold_count int	always	The number of consecutive health check failures required before considering the target unhealthy. Sample: 2
	stickiness_type string	always	The type of sticky sessions. Sample: lb_cookie
	health_check_timeout_seconds int	always	The amount of time, in seconds, during which no response means a failed health check. Sample: 5
	stickiness_lb_cookie_duration_seconds int	always	Indicates whether sticky sessions are enabled. Sample: 86400
	stickiness_enabled bool	always	Indicates whether sticky sessions are enabled. Sample: True
	health_check_path string	always	The destination for the health check request. Sample: /index.html
	vpc_id string	always	The ID of the VPC for the targets. Sample: vpc-0123456
	health_check_interval_seconds int	always	The approximate amount of time, in seconds, between health checks of an individual target. Sample: 30
