- hosts: localhost
gather_facts: false
vars:
foo: ['vs1','vs2','vs3','vs4']
tasks:
- name: counting the array elements
yes: "{{foo|length}}"
seeing the below error: not sure what am i missing here:
ERROR! Syntax Error while loading YAML.
mapping values are not allowed in this context
The error appears to be in '/root/ansible/playbooks/syst/lab.yml': line 7,
column 12, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
- name: counting the array elements
yes: "{{foo}}"|length
^ here
We could be wrong, but this one looks like it might be an issue with
missing quotes. Always quote template expression brackets when they
start a value. For instance:
with_items:
- {{ foo }}
Should be written as:
with_items:
- "{{ foo }}"
