New in version 2.5.
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
---|---|---|
backend_config (added in 2.7) | A group of key-values to provide at init stage to the -backend-config parameter. | |
binary_path | The path of a terraform binary to use, relative to the 'service_path' unless you supply an absolute path. | |
force_init bool |
| To avoid duplicating infra, if a state file can't be found this will force a `terraform init`. Generally, this should be turned off unless you intend to provision an entirely new Terraform deployment. |
lock | Enable statefile locking, if you use a service that accepts locks (such as S3+DynamoDB) to store your statefile. | |
lock_timeout | How long to maintain the lock on the statefile, if you use a service that accepts locks (such as S3+DynamoDB). | |
plan_file | The path to an existing Terraform plan file to apply. If this is not specified, Ansible will build a new TF plan and execute it. Note that this option is required if 'state' has the 'planned' value. | |
project_path required | The path to the root of the Terraform directory with the vars.tf/main.tf/etc to use. | |
purge_workspace bool (added in 2.7) |
| Only works with state = absent If true, the workspace will be deleted after the "terraform destroy" action. The 'default' workspace will not be deleted. |
state |
| Goal state of given stage/project |
state_file | The path to an existing Terraform state file to use when building plan. If this is not specified, the default `terraform.tfstate` will be used. This option is ignored when plan is specified. | |
targets | A list of specific resources to target in this plan/application. The resources selected here will also auto-include any dependencies. | |
variables | A group of key-values to override template variables or those in variables files. | |
variables_file | The path to a variables file for Terraform to fill into the TF configurations. | |
workspace (added in 2.7) | Default: default | The terraform workspace to work with. |
Note
terraform plan
, use check mode.# Basic deploy of a service - terraform: project_path: '{{ project_dir }}' state: present # Define the backend configuration at init - terraform: project_path: 'project/' state: "{{ state }}" force_init: true backend_config: region: "eu-west-1" bucket: "some-bucket" key: "random.tfstate"
Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
Key | Returned | Description | |
---|---|---|---|
command string | always | Full `terraform` command built by this module, in case you want to re-run the command outside the module or debug a problem. Sample: terraform apply ... | |
outputs complex | on success | A dictionary of all the TF outputs by their assigned name. Use `.outputs.MyOutputName.value` to access the value. Sample: {"bukkit_arn": {"sensitive": false, "type": "string", "value": "arn:aws:s3:::tf-test-bukkit"} | |
sensitive bool | always | Whether Terraform has marked this value as sensitive | |
type string | always | The type of the value (string, int, etc) | |
value | always | The value of the output as interpolated by Terraform | |
stdout string | always | Full `terraform` command stdout, in case you want to display it or examine the event log |
