Hi Sumit,
My requirement is like below:
I have multiple REST end points (Resource END points ) and each one of
these has multiple params .
Example:
~/base/endpoint1 - has n params
~/base/endpoint2 - has m params
~/base/endpoint3 - has p params
~/base/endpoint4 - has q params
..... and so on .
All of these
On each of these resource , one can perform CURD operations.
Notice implementation of this code is in JAVA.
So once i automate using Ansible , I use Ansible URI module and POST all
data using a .json file ( which has all cumulative data of all resources
i.e endpoint1+endpoint2+.......)as below:
name: application provisionning
uri:
url: http://{{ IP | default(ansible_fqdn) }}:8080/myapp/base
body_format: json
method: POST
body: "{{ lookup('file',app_provisioning_filepath) | from_json}}"
user: "{{ restapi_user }}"
password: "{{ restapi_password }}"
force_basic_auth: true
Now my requirment is :
End user wants that each of these parameters whatever u store in (.json
file) should be ansible format (e.g .yaml format).
So that whole ansible code looks in .yaml and no .json etc.
Now our REST API can produce/consume only JSON media type as per
implementation.
How i can make all these params( which is stored in .json file) into
ansible or yaml format.
