Cheers Dan for your answer.
It works but it's not exactly what I want to achieve. I tried one more
configruation using tags but still doesn't work as I expect.
I have main playbook (test1.yml) with only one include:
- include: test2.yml tags="{{ TEST_LEVEL }}"
Playbook test2.yml looks like below:
- hosts: controller
user: ansuser
tasks:
- name: Test task 1
shell: 'echo 1'
tags:
- test1
- hosts: controller
user: ansuser
tasks:
- name: Test task 2
shell: 'echo 2'
tags:
- test2
I'd like to run main playbook with extra-vars where I set TEST_LEVEL, like:
*ansible-playbook examples/test1.yml --extra-vars="TEST_LEVEL=test2"*
and value of TEST_LEVEL to be a tag for choosing tasks from test2.yml
playbook.
For now it executes all tasks (whatever value for TEST_LEVEL I choose). Is
there any typo/wrong quotas etc.in my playbook or I just try to use
something wrong way?

Wojtek
