Hi all,
I am using the fetch module in a role that redistributes ssh_known_hosts by:
1) creating a snippet on every host
2) fetching those snippets
3) redistributing the concatenation
I wanted to keep the snippets inside the files directory of the role, but
the fetch module fetches does not use
By the way, in the mean time I hacked around the problem by creating a
custom lookup plugin:
class LookupModule(object):
def __init__(self, basedir=None, **kwargs):
self.basedir = basedir
def run(self, terms=None, inject=None, **kwargs):
return [self.basedir]

Trying to figure out theory filters, but no luck yet. I'm pulling a list of
available tables from postgres and exclude the tables contained in the list

Am i using this functionality in the correct way? Or do i need to put it in
a variable first? If so, how do i do that?
I'm using
No such guide. Maybe it should. I need to think about what it might say.
Ultimately it's probably best to show the hack and ask how to do it better
when you see the specific hack.
I've also been thinking a bit about a tuning section, as I've been seeing

It would be helpful on the ticket if you can run ./hacking/test-module on
the remote system to share what the setup module actually outputs, and
The rule in YAML is if you have a colon in the line, you must quote the
whole line. In this case, the uri stuff probably needs quotes around the
whole beast.
You might find it easy to store the body in a vars: to make it a little
easier to read.

In that sort of configuration, I'd find pretty hackish and just go ahead
and write the inventory file.
You can keep the variables in the inventory file itself if you like, or use
hostvars/hostname files.

So this is true, but it's also ok, since it's just an example.
If you wanted to use it on a ec2 dynamic inventory, you could just do

You migh want to use set_fact on the hosts, when the dict is not defined,
to give it some default value instead. As you've noticed, the when clause
is applied to each item in the loop, so it's evaluated after the with_dict
is parsed.

That means when a role is being deployed because of a role dependency, its
template tasks could use blocks possibly provided by any role that depends
on it and is included in the active dependency chain.

I don't believe it's true that filters always return strings.

[Sorry for the barrage of mails, I am restructuring my Ansible layout and

I thought it was possible to combine inventory sources like this:

not 'changed'.
