I have an Ansible playbook that I want to load custom variables for. I do
not have access to the inventory but I wish to classify the variables by
their host names which can be classified in groups. The jobs would be fired
from Ansible Tower. Where should I put these variables such that they by
default override the values in tower? I've tried putting them in the vars
file in the role that's supposed to run but the operation occurs as per the
values in tower. I've tried putting them in the main play as well but it
returns an error "<<vars file>> should be a list or None."
- name: manage services
hosts: all
tasks:
include_vars:
- "{{playbook_dir}}/../roles/service_management/vars/s1s2grouping.yml"
A little test in the role shows that the file is being loaded.
- name: include variables
include_vars:
file: s1s2grouping.yml
register: checking
- debug: "msg={{checking.ansible_included_var_files}}"
The above code results in a positive answer.
