I am writing a playbook that creates a network with a name I assign. Later
on in the playbook I need to access the IP that is assigned by this network
task, so I get it from the hostvars. So for example it if I was calling the
network 'my_website' the value I would be targeting in hostvars would be
server:
"{{hostvars.localhost.rax_nfs.results[0].success[0].rax_addresses.my_website[0].addr}}"
This is fine, but I want to name the network based on the contents of a
variable passed in by a var file to make it reusable across multiple
setups, and then still be able to get that IP back, so
network_label: "{{ my_website }}"
server:
"{{hostvars.localhost.rax_nfs.results[0].success[0].rax_addresses.network_label[0].addr}}"
Obviously this doesn't work as it just assigns a string. How do I use
network_label as the key inside another variable? Like in php something like
$array[$variable], or $object->$variable
Is this possible?
