Thanks Michael Nice addition, fresh out of the press. Is there a way ti access it from outside the run of the playbook, like we do --list-tasks.
My use case is testing the play books with spec and serverspec. I'd like my test suit to be automated: "for a given host, here is the list of roles that have been applied, test each of them". Or, as you said, a list of groups per host, roles per play, and I can do the mapping myself. (that being said, the role_names will come handy too). raphael.
