Hi everyone,
We are using a Jinja2 template to populate a configuration file, based on
the information Ansible feeds it on runtime:
### Main Processes
{% for k, v in some_conf | dictsort() %}
<process>
cmdline -c /etc/some_tool/some_agent-{{ k }}.conf -o /var/log/some_tool/
some_agent.log
</process>
{% endfor %}
We get a predictable output thanks to using dictsort():
% cat /etc/some_tool/some_agent.conf
<process>
cmdline -c some_agent-AAA.conf -o /var/log/some_tool/some_agent.log
</process>
<process>
cmdline -c some_agent-BBB.conf -o /var/log/some_tool/some_agent.log
</process>
Thing is we need in the above configuration file that some_agent-BBB.conf is
placed *before* than some_agent-AAA.conf; for that matter I introduced the
*reverse=True* argument to dictsort():
### Main Processes
{% for k, v in some_conf | dictsort(*reverse=True*) %}
<process>
cmdline -c /etc/some_tool/some_agent-{{ k }}.conf -o /var/log/some_tool/
some_agent.log
</process>
{% endfor %}
When tested using Yasha (https://github.com/kblomqvist/yasha), the output
is the expected one:
% cat /etc/some_tool/some_agent.conf
<process>
cmdline -c some_agent-BBB.conf -o /var/log/some_tool/some_agent.log
</process>
<process>
cmdline -c some_agent-AAA.conf -o /var/log/some_tool/some_agent.log
</process>
However, when running the playbook, Ansible complains and stops execution,
showing the error message I put on the subject of this email: *do_dictsort()
got an unexpected keyword argument 'reverse'*
Why're running *ansible 2.1.1.0*.
Thanks!
