Hi,
I am running ansible on centos 7.4.1708 . Not sure what I am doing
wrong
but the dictionary variables are not completely written by the copy
module.
Here is my complete YAML file :
---
- hosts: localhost
gather_facts: False
vars:
var_dict1:
127.0.0.1: localhost
10.10.10.10: hostnameinternal1
10.20.10.10: hostnameinternal2
tasks:
- name: Copy the contents of var_dict1 to output1
copy:
content: |
{% for key in var_dict1 %}
{{ item.key}} {{item.value}}
{% endfor %}
dest: "/usershome/output1"
run_once: yes
with_dict: "{{ var_dict1 }}"
and here is the file /usershome/output1
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 localhost
Because of the with_dict the task will run 3 times, one for each item in
var_dict1.
Only the last will stick since the file will be overwritten.
Do this instead
- name: Copy the contents of var_dict1 to output1
copy:
content: |
{% for key, value in var_dict1.iteritems() %}
{{ key }} {{ value }}
{% endfor %}
dest: "/usershome/output1"
run_once: yes
