gcp_compute_backend_bucket – Creates a GCP BackendBucket
New in version 2.6.
Synopsis
- Backend buckets allow you to use Google Cloud Storage buckets with HTTP(S) load balancing.
 - An HTTP(S) load balancer can direct traffic to specified URLs to a backend bucket rather than a backend service. It can send requests for static content to a Cloud Storage bucket and requests for dynamic content a virtual machine instance.
 
Requirements
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
- python >= 2.6
 - requests >= 2.18.4
 - google-auth >= 1.3.0
 
Parameters
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
|   auth_kind    string / required    |   
  |    The type of credential used.   |  |
|   bucket_name    string / required    |    Cloud Storage bucket name.   |  ||
|   cdn_policy    dictionary   added in 2.8   |    Cloud CDN configuration for this Backend Bucket.   |  ||
|   signed_url_cache_max_age_sec    integer    |   Default: "3600"   |    Maximum number of seconds the response to a signed URL request will be considered fresh. Defaults to 1hr (3600s). After this time period, the response will be revalidated before being served.  When serving responses to signed URL requests, Cloud CDN will internally behave as though all responses from this backend had a "Cache-Control: public, max-age=[TTL]" header, regardless of any existing Cache-Control header. The actual headers served in responses will not be altered.   |  |
|   description    string    |    An optional textual description of the resource; provided by the client when the resource is created.   |  ||
|   enable_cdn    boolean    |   
  |    If true, enable Cloud CDN for this BackendBucket.   |  |
|   env_type    string    |    Specifies which Ansible environment you're running this module within.  This should not be set unless you know what you're doing.  This only alters the User Agent string for any API requests.   |  ||
|   name    string / required    |    Name of the resource. Provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?` which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.   |  ||
|   project    string    |    The Google Cloud Platform project to use.   |  ||
|   scopes    list    |    Array of scopes to be used.   |  ||
|   service_account_contents    jsonarg    |    The contents of a Service Account JSON file, either in a dictionary or as a JSON string that represents it.   |  ||
|   service_account_email    string    |    An optional service account email address if machineaccount is selected and the user does not wish to use the default email.   |  ||
|   service_account_file    path    |    The path of a Service Account JSON file if serviceaccount is selected as type.   |  ||
|   state    string    |   
  |    Whether the given object should exist in GCP   |  |
Notes
Note
- API Reference: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/reference/v1/backendBuckets
 - Using a Cloud Storage bucket as a load balancer backend: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/http/backend-bucket
 - for authentication, you can set service_account_file using the c(gcp_service_account_file) env variable.
 - for authentication, you can set service_account_contents using the c(GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_CONTENTS) env variable.
 - For authentication, you can set service_account_email using the 
GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_EMAILenv variable. - For authentication, you can set auth_kind using the 
GCP_AUTH_KINDenv variable. - For authentication, you can set scopes using the 
GCP_SCOPESenv variable. - Environment variables values will only be used if the playbook values are not set.
 - The service_account_email and service_account_file options are mutually exclusive.
