Thank you Jordan. I did not know you could set ansible_remote_tmp at the
task level. I will try that. As a work around before I saw your answer, I
just build a filter to return the md5 as follows:
- name: Calculate md5sum from local file
set_fact: qcow_md5sum="{{ qcow_filepath|getmd5sum() }}"
run_once: true
import subprocess
def getmd5sum (filename):
try:
output = subprocess.check_output(['md5sum',filename])
except:
print "Problem determining md5sum on file ", filename
return 1
tmplist = output.split()
md5sum = tmplist[0]
return md5sum
class FilterModule(object):
def filters(self):
return {'getmd5sum': getmd5sum}
