kubernetes.core.k8s_scale

Set a new size for a Deployment, ReplicaSet, Replication Controller, or Job.

Synopsis

  • Similar to the kubectl scale command. Use to set the number of replicas for a Deployment, ReplicaSet, or Replication Controller, or the parallelism attribute of a Job. Supports check mode.
  • wait parameter is not supported for Jobs.

Requirements

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

  • python >= 3.9
  • kubernetes >= 24.2.0
  • PyYAML >= 3.11

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
api_key
string
Token used to authenticate with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_API_KEY environment variable.
api_version
string
Default:
"v1"
Use to specify the API version.
Use to create, delete, or discover an object without providing a full resource definition.
Use in conjunction with kind, name, and namespace to identify a specific object.
If resource definition is provided, the apiVersion value from the resource_definition will override this option.

aliases: api, version
ca_cert
path
Path to a CA certificate used to authenticate with the API. The full certificate chain must be provided to avoid certificate validation errors. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_SSL_CA_CERT environment variable.

aliases: ssl_ca_cert

string
The name of a context found in the config file. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_CONTEXT environment variable.
continue_on_error
boolean
added in 2.0.0
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
Whether to continue on errors when multiple resources are defined.
current_replicas
integer
For Deployment, ReplicaSet, Replication Controller, only scale, if the number of existing replicas matches. In the case of a Job, update parallelism only if the current parallelism value matches.
host
string
Provide a URL for accessing the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_HOST environment variable.
impersonate_groups
list / elements=string
added in 2.3.0
Group(s) to impersonate for the operation.

string
added in 2.3.0
Username to impersonate for the operation.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_IMPERSONATE_USER environment.
kind
string
Use to specify an object model.
Use to create, delete, or discover an object without providing a full resource definition.
Use in conjunction with api_version, name, and namespace to identify a specific object.
If resource definition is provided, the kind value from the resource_definition will override this option.
kubeconfig
raw
Path to an existing Kubernetes config file. If not provided, and no other connection options are provided, the Kubernetes client will attempt to load the default configuration file from ~/.kube/config. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_KUBECONFIG environment variable.
Multiple Kubernetes config file can be provided using separator ';' for Windows platform or ':' for others platforms.
The kubernetes configuration can be provided as dictionary. This feature requires a python kubernetes client version >= 17.17.0. Added in version 2.2.0.
label_selectors
list / elements=string
added in 2.0.0
 Default:
[]
List of label selectors to use to filter results.
name
string
Use to specify an object name.
Use to create, delete, or discover an object without providing a full resource definition.
Use in conjunction with api_version, kind and namespace to identify a specific object.
If resource definition is provided, the metadata.name value from the resource_definition will override this option.
namespace
string
Use to specify an object namespace.
Useful when creating, deleting, or discovering an object without providing a full resource definition.
Use in conjunction with api_version, kind, and name to identify a specific object.
If resource definition is provided, the metadata.namespace value from the resource_definition will override this option.
no_proxy
string
added in 2.3.0
The comma separated list of hosts/domains/IP/CIDR that shouldn't go through proxy. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_NO_PROXY environment variable.
Please note that this module does not pick up typical proxy settings from the environment (e.g. NO_PROXY).
This feature requires kubernetes>=19.15.0. When kubernetes library is less than 19.15.0, it fails even no_proxy set in correct.
example value is "localhost,.local,.example.com,127.0.0.1,127.0.0.0/8,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16"
password
string
Provide a password for authenticating with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PASSWORD environment variable.
Please read the description of the username option for a discussion of when this option is applicable.
persist_config
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Whether or not to save the kube config refresh tokens. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PERSIST_CONFIG environment variable.
When the k8s context is using a user credentials with refresh tokens (like oidc or gke/gcloud auth), the token is refreshed by the k8s python client library but not saved by default. So the old refresh token can expire and the next auth might fail. Setting this flag to true will tell the k8s python client to save the new refresh token to the kube config file.
Default to false.
Please note that the current version of the k8s python client library does not support setting this flag to True yet.
The fix for this k8s python library is here: kubernetes-client/python-base#169
proxy
string
The URL of an HTTP proxy to use for the connection. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY environment variable.
Please note that this module does not pick up typical proxy settings from the environment (e.g. HTTP_PROXY).
proxy_headers
dictionary
added in 2.0.0
The Header used for the HTTP proxy.
basic_auth
string
Colon-separated username:password for basic authentication header.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY_HEADERS_BASIC_AUTH environment.
proxy_basic_auth
string
Colon-separated username:password for proxy basic authentication header.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY_HEADERS_PROXY_BASIC_AUTH environment.
user_agent
string
String representing the user-agent you want, such as foo/1.0.
Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY_HEADERS_USER_AGENT environment.
replicas
integer / required
The desired number of replicas.
resource_definition
-
Provide a valid YAML definition (either as a string, list, or dict) for an object when creating or updating.
NOTE: kind, api_version, name, and namespace will be overwritten by corresponding values found in the provided resource_definition.

aliases: definition, inline
resource_version
string
Only attempt to scale, if the current object version matches.
src
path
Provide a path to a file containing a valid YAML definition of an object or objects to be created or updated. Mutually exclusive with resource_definition. NOTE: kind, api_version, name, and namespace will be overwritten by corresponding values found in the configuration read in from the src file.
Reads from the local file system. To read from the Ansible controller's file system, including vaulted files, use the file lookup plugin or template lookup plugin, combined with the from_yaml filter, and pass the result to resource_definition. See Examples below.
The URL to manifest files that can be used to create the resource. Added in version 2.4.0.
Mutually exclusive with template in case of kubernetes.core.k8s module.
username
string
Provide a username for authenticating with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_USERNAME environment variable.
Please note that this only works with clusters configured to use HTTP Basic Auth. If your cluster has a different form of authentication (e.g. OAuth2 in OpenShift), this option will not work as expected and you should look into the community.okd.k8s_auth module, as that might do what you need.
validate_certs
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Whether or not to verify the API server's SSL certificates. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_VERIFY_SSL environment variable.

aliases: verify_ssl
wait
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
For Deployment, ReplicaSet, Replication Controller, wait for the status value of ready_replicas to change to the number of replicas. In the case of a Job, this option is ignored.
wait_sleep
integer
added in 2.0.0
 Default:
5
Number of seconds to sleep between checks.
wait_timeout
integer
Default:
20
When wait is True, the number of seconds to wait for the ready_replicas status to equal replicas. If the status is not reached within the allotted time, an error will result. In the case of a Job, this option is ignored.

Notes

Note

  • To avoid SSL certificate validation errors when validate_certs is True, the full certificate chain for the API server must be provided via ca_cert or in the kubeconfig file.
