Hello,
I'm actually making a role for managing bind configuration but i'm stuck
with what *seems to be a regression* in my role.
*briefly :*
Using ansible 2.1.1.0.
The role user should be able to give a yml file containing a dict of
ressource records named "records" for each zone
Each zone is declared in a list named "zones"
for keeping the code DRY and reusable, I divided the tasks in multiple
files using include in main.yml and blocks
The problem appears during the zone data generation.
this step is an include task.yml with_items :
extract of main.yml :
# generate/copy zones data
- include: create_zone_db.yml
with_items: "{{ zones }}"
tags: setup_zones
extract of create_zone_db.yml
---
- block:
- set_fact: "zone_filename=db.{{ item.name }}"
- name: Loading zone content for {{ item.name }} from {{ item.ymlfile }}
include_vars: "{{ item.ymlfile }}"
- name: Setup zones files for {{ item.name }} and verify
template:
src: db.zones.template.j2
dest: "{{ bind_zones_dir }}/{{ zone_filename }}"
owner: "{{ bind_user }}"
group: "{{ bind_group }}"
mode: 0644
validate: "/usr/sbin/named-checkzone {{ item.name }} %s"
notify: reload bind
when: item.ymlfile is defined
It works fine on the first loop with the first element in the "zones" list
but, if another element contains another *ymlfile* field,
on the next loop, the include_vars pass over the correct file but
the *records* dict is* not overrided* with the dict provided in the second
and therefore the next zone has incorrect zone data.
*example : *
*in the user playbook :*
---
host: localhost
roles:
- role: manage-bind
zones:
- name: example.com
type: master
ymlfile: example.com.yml
- name: test.org
type: master
ymlfile: test.org.yml
*in example.com.yml*
---
records:
ttl: 3d
SOA:
serial: 2016080401
ns: srvdns01.example.com.
email: admin.example.com.
refresh: 12h
retry: 30m
expire: 3w
negative: 2h30m
NS:
- srvdns01.example.com.
A:
127.0.0.1:
- '@'
- srvdns01.example.com.
*in test.org.yml*
---
records:
ttl: 3d
SOA:
serial: 2016080401
ns: host.test.org.
email: root.test.org.
NS:
- host.test.org.
A:
127.0.0.1:
- '@'
- host.test.org.
*expected result for the second loop : *
records:
ttl: 3d
SOA:
serial: 2016080401
ns: host.test.org.
email: root.test.org.
NS:
- host.test.org.
A:
127.0.0.1:
- '@'
- host.test.org.
*actual result : *
records:
ttl: 3d
SOA:
serial: 2016080401
ns: host.test.org.
email: root.test.org.
refresh: 12h
retry: 30m
expire: 3w
negative: 2h30m
NS:
- host.test.org.
A:
127.0.0.1:
- '@'
- host.test.org.
It worked a month ago with records being a list instead of dict but when
roll-backed to list type, I had the same issue.
I have tested with and without blocks and without include with same results
I looked over Variable Precedence in ansible doc without fiding anything
explicit.
At this point I am clueless.
I don't know if i messed up with something, or if a found an issue with
ansible or if my design is bad...
Any help Ansible experts ?
Thanks.
