I have a playbook where i first [Play 1] add dynamic host to group
"desthosts"
In Play 2 I append a string variable "storerecords" with filenames. Sample
playbook below:
In Play 3 I try to remove duplicate entries in "storerecords" variable
where i get the error.
---
- name: Play 1
hosts: localhost
- addhost:
name: "{{ item }}"
group: desthosts
with_items:
- "{{ SourceFiles.split(',') }}"
- name: Play 2
hosts: desthosts
- set_fact:
storerecords: "{{ storerecords | default('') + item + '\n' }}"
with_fileglob: - "{{ playbook_dir }}/tmpfiles/*"
- name: Play 3
hosts: localhost
- local_action: lineinfile line="{{ storerecords }}" path="{{
playbook_dir }}/files/tricky.txt" create=yes
- set_fact:
storerecords: "{{ storerecords.split('\n') | unique | select |
join('\n') }}"
Error running the playbook is:
TASK [lineinfile]
*******************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an option with an
undefined variable. The error was: 'storerecords' is undefined\n\nThe error
appears to be in '/app/scripts/deploy.yml': line 1277, column 6, but
may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe
offending line appears to be:\n\n\n - local_action: lineinfile line=\"{{
storerecords }}\" path=\"{{ playbook_dir }}/files/tricky.txt\" create=yes\n
^ here\nWe could be wrong, but this one looks like it might be an issue
with\nmissing quotes. Always quote template expression brackets when
they\nstart a value. For instance:\n\n with_items:\n - {{ foo
}}\n\nShould be written as:\n\n with_items:\n - \"{{ foo }}\"\n"}
Can you please suggest how I can get the value of storerecords in from
desthost to Play 3 localhost ?
