Someone kindly help me on this. Im using ansible version 2.5.5 and Ive
followed Ansible best practices for directory structure and went through
many docs and I feel Im correct here, but still things are not working.
--- ansible.cfg
--- inventory/
--- qa/
--- group_vars/
--- all.yml
--- hosts.ini
--- playbook.yml
--- roles
--- myrole
--- tasks
--- main.yml
--- vars
--- ctr1.yml
--- ctr2.yml
--- ctr3.yml
--- templates
--- ctr1.yml.j2
--- ctr2.yml.j2
--- ctr3.yml.j2
Inventory/qa/hosts has below.
[Myapps]
Ctr1
Ctr2
Ctr3
[Ctr1:vars]
app=ctrl1
Appname="{{ app }}-{{ ansible-host }}-{{ type }}"
[Ctr2:vars]
appp=ctrl2
Appname="{{ app}}-{{ ansible-e to }}-{{ type }}"
[Ctr2]
app=ctrl3
Server1/dynt ansible-host=server1 type=dynt
Server1/splunk ansible-host=server2 type=splunk
Roles/tasks/main.yml ( I have customcli)
Command: customcli --host {{ ansible-host }} --appname {{ Appname }}
ansible-playbook -i inventory/qa/hosts myrole.yml throws an error stating
Appname, ansible-host, type is undefined. It doesnt pick any variables in
hostsfile nor in group_vars.
