How can I reference this in an ini file module? I'm trying to write the
value of the ami id to a file, to be consumed by another process. This
didn't work:
- ini_file: dest=ami.ini section=qa option=ami value={{
var=instance.results[0].image_id }}
I got:
TASK: [ini_file dest=ami.ini section=qa option=ami value={{
var=instance.results[0].image_id }}] ***
failed: [54.166.40.120] => {"failed": true}
msg: this module requires key=value arguments (['dest=ami.ini',
'section=qa', 'option=ami', 'value={#', 'var=instance.results[0].image_id',
'#}'])
