Hello everyone,
It seems quite difficult to perform a very simple task: save the content of
a variable to a file.
This variable content is not just a string, but several lines as shown by
the debug module:
"out.stdout_lines": [
[
"Using 2011 out of 262144 bytes, uncompressed size = 3870
bytes",
"!",
"! Last configuration change at 18:34:42 UTC Thu Jun 30 2016 by
admin",
"!",
"version 15.2",
...
"hostname IOSv_L2_1",
...
"end",
""
]
]
Trying to use the "copy" module leads to the previously mentioned issue:
- name: Copying config into local file
copy:
content: "{{ out.stdout_lines }}"
dest: host_vars/{{ inventory_hostname }}/{{ inventory_hostname
}}_{{ config }}.txt
=>

In /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg with ansible 2.1.1.0, the default library path
is defined:
library = /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ansible
Also, there are 2 default "copy.py" in the downstream tree:
- ./modules/core/files/copy.py
- ./plugins/action/copy.py
Isn't this confusing for Ansible?
