I've got a situation where I'm applying roles to a system locally, much in the style of ansible-pull. The role has a number of defaults, but I wish to override those defaults with custom details specific to this particular environment. My wish is to provide those overrides via an external file to the role, something we can iterate on without having to change the role code itself (as it is distributed through a different method).
I'm looking for ideas on how to make this work. I had originally thought to make use of ansible local facts, in /etc/ansible/facts.d/*.fact files However that results in variables named ansible.local.<filename>.<blockname>.<key> which obviously cannot override a role default as-is. Any thoughts you all might have would be appreciated! -jlk -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
