Thanks Kai. Your comment "Expect is just looking a a stream of bytes" gave
me the idea to just look for a "string of bytes" that's present in each
prompt. The following now works.
- name: Test expect
expect:
timeout: 5
echo: yes
command: keytool -genkey -alias tomcat -keyalg RSA -sigalg
SHA1withRSA -keysize 2048 -keystore keystore.jks
responses:
"Enter keystore password": "{{ keystore_pw }}"
"Re-enter new password": "{{ keystore_pw }}"
"last name": "{{ cname }}"
"organizational unit": "EngIT"
"organization": "{{ company }}"
"Locality": "RTP"
"Province" : "NC"
"country": "US"
\[no\]: "yes"
"Enter key password" : "{{ keystore_pw }}"
Interestingly enough, the following gives a syntax error
"\[no\]"
but corrected with this
\[no\]
