Some time ago, I wrote a small lookup plugin
https://github.com/mantiz/ansible-lookup-plugin-os-specific
This plugin allows/allowed to define a list of items where each item could
be specialized for a specific os or distribution.
For this to work, I need the facts to access ansible_distribution and so on.
Yesterday, I updated to the latest git version of ansible and the facts
seem no longer be passed to the module.
Is there another way to access the facts from inside the module?
The only workaround I found was to pass the facts manually, like:
- some_task: ...
with_os_specific:
facts: "{{ vars }}"
items:
- ...
But this is annoying and easy to forget.
If there is no way to access the facts, is there any other way to solve the
issue, the plugin solves?
