Install gcloud

Use to install the Google Cloud SDK and its components, including Kubernetes' kubectl CLI. If you're deploying things to Kubernetes, this role is for you, as it will automate the install of the CLI on your development and deployment hosts.

Determine which Archive to Install

The name of the archive to install must be determined prior to running this role. Unfortunately there is no automated way to determine the archive name. You cannot nstall the SDK via the typical package managers. Instead, go to the SDK web site and find the archive that fits your system. Once you have the archive name, plug it into this role.

Installing the Archive

This role can download the archive onto the target host(s) and install it OR you can have the archive already downloaded and available on the Ansible host, in which case the role will copy the archive to the target host(s) and install it. To download and install, provide gcloud_archive_name. To copy and install, provide gcloud_archive_path.

Where are components installed?

The Google installer does not attempt to link or copy executables to /usr/local/bin or a bin directory that is typically part of the environment PATH. Instead the component executables live in {{ gcloud_install_path }}/bin. If you want to add links or copy files to a bin directory, add additional tasks to your playbook post role execution.

The install process will update a login script to add {{ gcloud_install_path }}/bin to the environment PATH. If you want this behavior, leave gcloud_update_path to true. The installer will attempt to update the default login script for the user. To update a specific script, set the value of gcloud_profile_path.

What components are available?

Use the Component ID value in gcloud_additional_components and glcoud_override_components to control which components will be installed.

Requirements

The target host requires:

• tar

And of course, if you intend to download the archive, the target host will need access to the the outside world.

Role Variables

gcloud_archive_name

Defaults to ''. If set, the archive will be downloaded from Google onto the target host. Set to the name of an archive file. Example: google-cloud-sdk-114.0.0-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz. Visit the SDK site to find the archive name for your system.

gcloud_archive_path

Defaults to ''. Path to the gcloud archive file on the Ansible host. If defined, the archive will be copied to the target host.

gcloud_tmp_path

Defaults to /tmp. Set to the path where the archive can be temporarily placed.

gcloud_force_download

Default to yes. When downloading the archive, always perform the download, even if the archive already exists in {{ glcloud_tmp_path }}.

gcloud_install_path

Defaults to “{{ ansible_env.HOME }}“. Path on target host to place the unarchived files.

gcloud_usage_reporting

Defaults to no. Enable usage reporting?

gcloud_profile_path

Defaults to '~/.profile'. Path to the login script to be updated by the installer.

gcloud_command_completion

Defaults to yes. Enable bash style command completion in the login script?

gcloud_update_path

Defaults to yes. Update the PATH environment varialbe within the login script?

gcloud_override_components

Defaults to []. Override the components to be installed, and install these instead.

gcloud_additional_components

Defaults to [kubectl]. Additional components to install. Will either be added to the default install list, or to the override-components list (if provided).

Example Playbook

Here's an example playbook that executes our role:

- name: Create temp intall path 
  hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  gather_facts: no
  tasks:
    - name: Create a tmp path
      file:
        path: "/tmp/install_gcloud"
        state: directory
        mode: 0777

- name: Run the install
  hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  gather_facts: yes    # Run gather_facts to define ansible_env.HOME
  roles:
    - role: role-install-gcloud
      gcloud_tmp_path: /tmp/install_gcloud 
      gcloud_archive_name: google-cloud-sdk-114.0.0-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz

- name: Remove temp install path
  hosts: localhost
  connection: local
  gather_facts: no
  tasks:
    - name: Remove the tmp path
      file:
        path: "/tmp/install_gcloud"
        state: absent
