Hi All,
I figured out that the below works to append to a file,
- name: Write redis details to file
local_action: lineinfile dest={{ third_party_dest_path }} line=redis
state=present create=yes
However, i am unable to append the registered variable value to the file
- name: Write redis details to file
local_action: lineinfile dest={{ third_party_dest_path }} *line="{{ redis
}}"* state=present create=yes
