I have a script that I run at the start of my first play like this.
*- hosts: localhost*
* local_action: command python runScript.py *
It gnerates me a file in *roles/abc/vars/main.yml* which looks like this.
*newHosts:*
* - hostIP: 192.168.1.23*
* filename: file1*
* - hostIP: 192.168.1.24*
* filename: file2*
Then I call the role by
* roles:*
* - { role: abc }*
in that role, I'm trying to add those hosts to inventory_host as well as in
the group by doing this:
*add_host: hostname= {{ item.hostIP }} groups=newHosts filename= {{
item.filename }}*
*with_items: newHosts*
The problem is that the first time when I run this play; the script runs
and generates the file and when the role is called it gives me the error
*fatal: [127.0.0.1] => One or more undefined variables: 'unicode object'
has no attribute 'hostIP'*
*FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting*
which is logical because the file *roles/abc/var/main.yml* didn't exist in
the beginning. The second time when I run the playbook. it runs without any
problem.
So, can you guide me how can I add the hosts from a file which is generated
at the run-time and use it in the same play?
Thanking you in anticipation.
Warm Regards,
Fazal-e-Rehman Khan
