Experts Hi,
I have a variable file that has a set of flowers, colors, and countries.
# cat vars/DASHBOARD_vars.yaml
---
myarch:
- COLOR:
name: blue,white,black,green
- FLOWER:
name: rose,jasmine
- COUNTRY:
name: Japan,Germany,France
I wish to create one HTML file each, thus 1 HTML for all colors, 1 HTML
file for all flowers and 1 HTML for all countries. Below is what i expect
how my colors HTML file should look like.
<table bgcolor="sky blue">
<tr>
<th></th>
<th>blue</th>
<th>white</th>
<th>black</th>
<th >green</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>DR</td>
<td><img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"></td>
<td><img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"></td>
<td><img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"></td>
<td><img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td><a href="http://localhost/sample";> <img src="/tmp/Arrow_red.png"></td>
<td><a href="http://localhost/sample";> <img src="/tmp/Arrow_red.png"></td>
<td><img src="/tmp/Arrow_blue.png"></td>
<td><a href="http://localhost/sample";> <img src="/tmp/Arrow_red.png"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>PROD</td>
<td> <img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"> </td>
<td> <img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"> </td>
<td> <img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"> </td>
<td> <img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"> </td>
</tr>
</table>
Likewaise flowers HTML would look like below:
<table bgcolor="yellow">
<tr>
<th></th>
<th>rose</th>
<th>jasmine</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>DR</td>
<td><img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"></td>
<td><img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td></td>
<td><a href="http://localhost/sample";> <img src="/tmp/Arrow.png"></td>
<td><a href="http://localhost/sample";> <img src="/tmp/Arrow.png"></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>PROD</td>
<td> <img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"> </td>
<td> <img src="/tmp/Desktop.png"> </td>
</tr>
</table>
and similarly one HTML for countries.
I guess I need to use ansible's template feature to construct these HTML
files.
Below is my playbook where I FLOWER able to read the variable files in
order.
# cat dashboard.yml
- name: Play 1
hosts: localhost
tasks:
- name: Load a variable file"
include_vars:
file: "vars/DASHBOARD_vars.yaml"
- name: Declare array for IPs
include_tasks: "{{ playbook_dir }}/dashboard_inner.yml"
loop: "{{ myarch }}"
loop_control:
loop_var: myresult
# cat dashboard_inner.yml
---
- name: Declare here
include_tasks: "{{ playbook_dir }}/dashboard_inner_inner.yml"
loop: "{{ myresult.name.split(',') }}"
# cat dashboard_inner_inner.yml
---
- block:
- template:
src: "templates/dashboard_body.html.j2"
dest: "dashboard/dashboard_body_{{ item }}.html"
- debug:
msg: "HERE IS:{{ item }}"
When I run it creates HTML files for each component however, I'm not sure
how my "templates/dashboard_body.html.j2" should be constructed to get me
the desired output?
A couple of pointers to consider while construction the HTML is
1. bgcolor:
<table bgcolor="sky blue">
bgcolor changes for each table i.e for flowers, colors and countries each
will have three different colors.
2.
if "white" folder has bad.txt files say /tmp/white/bad.txt returns true
then below <td> should be populated
<td><a href="http://localhost/sample";> <img src="/tmp/Arrow_red.png"></td>
else the below one should be
<td><img src="/tmp/Arrow_blue.png"></td>
Output of my run:
# ansible-playbook -i "all" dashboard.yml
