Works with Ansible Galaxy

You can install this role with the ansible-galaxy command, and can run it directly from the git repository.

You should install it like this:

ansible-galaxy install couchbaselabs.couchbase_server

Make sure you have write access to /etc/ansible/roles/ since that is the default Ansible role installation path, or define your own Ansible role path by creating a $HOME/.ansible.cfg file with these contents:

[defaults]
roles_path = <path_to_your_preferred_role_location>

Change <path_to_your_preferred_role_location> to a directory you have write access to.

See the ansible-galaxy documentation for more details.

couchbase_buckets[]

The couchbase_buckets variable is an empty list by default. When specified the following properties are available to each item in the list, the name property is required, all other properties are optional and will be assigned to the default value listed if not specified. Additional Documentation

Variable Default Description
*name null The name of the bucket to create. The only characters that can be used for the bucket-name are those in the ranges of A-Z, a-z, and 0-9; plus the underscore, period, dash, and percent characters. The name can be a maximum of 100 characters in length.
type couchbase The type of bucket to create. Accepted bucket types are "couchbase", "ephemeral", and "memcached". The Couchbase bucket is the standard bucket type. It supports data persistence, replication, caching, indexing, views, and N1QL queries. The Ephemeral bucket is an in-memory bucket similar to the Couchbase bucket; but it does not support data persistence or views. The Memcached bucket is a cache-only bucket that does not support persistence, replication, indexing, views, or N1QL querying: this bucket type provides the same behavior as Memcached Server. Memcached buckets are deprecated and Ephemeral buckets should be used instead.
storage_backend couchstore The type of storage to use with the bucket. This is only specified for "couchbase" buckets. Accepted values are "couchstore" or "magma".
ram_size 100 The amount of memory to allocate to the cache for this bucket, in Megabytes. The memory quota of this bucket must fit into the overall cluster memory quota. The minimum cache size is 100MB.
replicas 1 The number of servers to which data is replicated. Replicas provide protection against data loss by keeping copies of this bucket’s data on multiple servers. By default, the number of replicas is one, even if there is only a single server in the cluster. The minimum number of replicas is zero, and the maximum three. This option is valid for Couchbase and Ephemeral buckets only.
priority low Specifies the priority of this bucket’s background tasks. This option is valid for Couchbase and Ephemeral buckets only. For Couchbase buckets, background task-types include disk I/O, DCP stream-processing, and item-paging. For Ephemeral buckets, background task-types are the same as for Couchbase buckets, with the exception of disk I/O, which does not apply to Ephemeral buckets. The value of this option may be "high" or "low". The default is "low". Specifying "high" may result in faster processing; but only when more than one bucket is defined for the cluster, and when different priority settings have been established among the buckets. When Couchbase and Ephemeral buckets have different priority settings, this affects the prioritization only of task-types other than disk I/O.
eviction_policy valueOnly The memory-cache eviction policy for this bucket. This option is valid for Couchbase and Ephemeral buckets only.

Couchbase buckets support either "valueOnly" or "fullEviction". Specifying the "valueOnly" policy means that each key stored in this bucket must be kept in memory. This is the default policy: using this policy improves performance of key-value operations, but limits the maximum size of the bucket. Specifying the "fullEviction" policy means that performance is impacted for key-value operations, but the maximum size of the bucket is unbounded.

Ephemeral buckets support either "noEviction" or "nruEviction". Specifying "noEviction" means that the bucket will not evict items from the cache if the cache is full: this type of eviction policy should be used for in-memory database use-cases. Specifying "nruEviction" means that items not recently used will be evicted from memory, when all memory in the bucket is used: this type of eviction policy should be used for caching use-cases.
conflict_resolution sequence Specifies this bucket’s conflict resolution mechanism; which is to be used if a conflict occurs during Cross Data-Center Replication (XDCR). Sequence-based and timestamp-based mechanisms are supported.

Sequence-based conflict resolution selects the document that has been updated the greatest number of times since the last sync: for example, if one cluster has updated a document twice since the last sync, and the other cluster has updated the document three times, the document updated three times is selected; regardless of the specific times at which updates took place.

Timestamp-based conflict resolution selects the document with the most recent timestamp: this is only supported when all clocks on all cluster-nodes have been fully synchronized.
flush false Specifies whether or not the flush operation is allowed for this bucket.
durability_min_level none The minimum durability level for the bucket. Accepted values for "ephemeral" buckets are "none" or "majority". Accepted values for "couchbase" buckets are "none", "majority", "majorityAndPersistActive", or "persistToMajority".

"none" specifies mutations to the bucket are asynchronous and offer no durability guarantees. "majority" specifies mutations must be replicated to (that is, held in the memory allocated to the bucket on) a majority of the Data Service nodes. "majorityAndPersistActive" specifies mutations must be replicated to a majority of the Data Service nodes. Additionally, it must be written to disk on the node hosting the active vBucket for the data. "persistToMajority" specifies mutations must be persisted to a majority of the Data Service nodes. Accordingly, it will be written to disk on those nodes.
compression_mode passive Specifies the compression-mode of the bucket. There are three options; off, passive and active. All three modes are backwards compatible with older SDKs, where Couchbase Server will automatically uncompress documents for clients that do not understand the compression being used. This option is only available for Couchbase and Ephemeral buckets in Couchbase Enterprise Edition.

Off: Couchbase Server will only compress document values when persisting to disk. This is suitable for use cases where compression could have a negative impact on performance. Please note it is expected that compression in most use cases will improve performance.

Passive: Documents which were compressed by a client, or read compressed from disk will be stored compress in-memory. Couchbase Server will make no additional attempt to compress documents that are not already compressed.

Active: Couchbase Server will actively and aggressively attempt to compress documents, even if they have not been received in a compressed format. This provides the benefits of compression even when the SDK clients are not complicit.
max_ttl 0 Specifies the maximum TTL (time-to-live) for all documents in bucket in seconds. If enabled and a document is mutated with no TTL or a TTL greater than than the maximum, its TTL will be set to the maximum TTL. Setting this option to 0 disables the use of max-TTL and the largest TTL that is allowed is 2147483647. This option is only available for Couchbase and Ephemeral buckets in Couchbase Enterprise Edition.
enable_index_replica false Enables view index replication for the current bucket. This option is valid for Couchbase buckets only.
Example
couchbase_buckets:
  - name: baseball
    type: couchbase
    ram_size: 400
    replicas: 1
    compression_mode: active
  - name: ecommerce
    type: couchbase
    ram_size: 700
    replicas: 1
    compression_mode: active

priority High Specify the priority for the replication. The options are "High", "Medium" or "Low"
reset_expiry false When set to true, all mutations sent to the target cluster will have the expiration set to zero. This means documents will not expire in target cluster. This can be overridden by setting max-ttl on the target bucket.
filter_deletion false When set to true, delete mutations will not be sent to the target cluster. This means documents will not be deleted in the target cluster via delete operations on the source cluster.
filter_expiration false When set to true, expiry mutations will not be sent to the target cluster. This means documents will not be deleted in the target cluster via expirations on the source cluster.

cacert cacert Path to CA certificate to be used for server’s certificate validation, required if certificate validation is not disabled
server_cert_validation false Enable or disable certificate validation when connecting to LDAP server.
bind_dn null The DN of a user to authenticate as to allow user search and groups synchronization. If bind details or client TLS certificate are not provided anonymous bind will be used instead.
bind_password null The bind user password
client_cert null The client TLS certificate to be used to bind against the LDAP Server to allow user and groups synchronization. If bind details or client TLS certificate are not provided anonymous bind will be used instead. '--client-cert' and '--client-key' need to be set together.
client_key null The client TLS key. This is used with '--client-cert' flag for certificate authentication. '--client-cert' and '--client-key' need to be set together.

user_dn_query null LDAP query to get user’s DN. Must contains at least one instance of %u Example: ou=Users,dc=example??one?(uid=%u)
authorization_enabled false Enables using LDAP to give users authorization
group_query null LDAP query, to get the users' groups by username in RFC4516 format. The %u and %D placeholders can be used, for username and user’s DN respectively. If attribute is present in the query, the list of attribute values in the search result is considered as list of user’s groups (single entry result is expected): for example: '%D?memberOf?base'. If the attribute is not present in the query, every returned entry is considered a group, for example: 'ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com??one?(member=%D)'
max_parallel_connections 100 Maximum number of parallel connections that can be established with LDAP servers.
max_cache_size 10000 Maximum number of requests that can be cached, defaults to 10000.
