|  ec2_url   string    |    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.

|  hash_key_name   -    |    Name of the hash key.  Required when   state=present. |  |
|  hash_key_type   -    |   
  |    Type of the hash key.   |  
|  indexes   -   added in 2.1   |   Default: []   |    list of dictionaries describing indexes to add to the table. global indexes can be updated. local indexes don't support updates or have throughput.  required options: ['name', 'type', 'hash_key_name']  valid types: ['all', 'global_all', 'global_include', 'global_keys_only', 'include', 'keys_only']  other options: ['hash_key_type', 'range_key_name', 'range_key_type', 'includes', 'read_capacity', 'write_capacity']   |  
|  name   - / required    |    Name of the table.   |  |
|  profile   string    |    Uses a boto profile. Only works with boto >= 2.24.0.   |  |
|  range_key_name   -    |    Name of the range key.   |  |
|  range_key_type   -    |   
  |    Type of the range key.   |  
|  read_capacity   -    |   Default: 1   |    Read throughput capacity (units) to provision.   |  
|  region   string    |    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   string    |    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  |  |

|  write_capacity   -    |   Default: 1   |    Write throughput capacity (units) to provision.   |  
Notes
Note
- If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence 
AWS_URLorEC2_URL,AWS_ACCESS_KEY_IDorAWS_ACCESS_KEYorEC2_ACCESS_KEY,AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEYorAWS_SECRET_KEYorEC2_SECRET_KEY,AWS_SECURITY_TOKENorEC2_SECURITY_TOKEN,AWS_REGIONorEC2_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_REGIONorEC2_REGIONcan be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file
