I'm writing an ansible demo, showing how to provision Riak clusters, and I 
want to make it super self contained.

With that in mind, I’ve been playing with the ec2.py inventory script, and 
the ansible ec2 module.

Starting the nodes works great (if anyone is interested, I'm happy to share 
the code, or perhaps just make the repo public)

But, I’m having a problem with stopping the nodes. 

I have those vars available:

TASK: [List tagged instances] 
*************************************************
ok: [127.0.0.1] => {
    "groups[\"tag_instance_type_ansible_demo\"]": [
        "54.171.160.194"
    ]
}

TASK: [everything for that one host] 
******************************************
ok: [127.0.0.1] => {
    "hostvars[\"54.171.160.194\"][\"ec2_id\"]": "i-f28793b0"
}

The problem is that in order to stop and ec2 instances, I need to get at 
the ec2_id,  in order to feed it to the ec2 module (which stops nodes based 
upon the instance id, not the ip address. 

 tasks:
    - name: shut down all the spot instances
      local_action:
       module: ec2
       region: eu-west-1
       wait: no
       instance_ids: '{{ instance_ids }}'
       state: absent

I can't figure out how to munge this into a usable list, has anyone else 
experienced this before?
