Hello, I am using the shell module to run a command inside a docker
container and it is giving me a yaml error. The command is stupid silly
complicated ;-) Is there a way to get Ansible to just send it as is and
ignore \ escape out the characters that may be freaking out Yaml?
Here is an example of a basic command that does work.
*shell*: docker exec -it 9d5e563a6e9e bash -c "cd /var/log ; ls; cat
bootstrap.log"
However this command gives me a yaml eror
*shell*: docker exec -it 9d5e563a6e9e bash -c "echo 'rs.initiate({_id:
\"mongors1conf\",configsvr: true, members: [{ _id : 0, host : \"mongocfg1\"
},{ _id : 1, host : \"mongocfg2\" }, { _id : 2, host : \"mongocfg3\" }]})'
| mongo"
Here is a snippet of the error
*ERROR! Syntax Error while loading YAML.*
* mapping values are not allowed in this context*
* shell: docker exec -it 9d5e563a6e9e bash -c "echo 'rs.initiate({_id:
\"mongors1conf\",configsvr: true, members: [{ _id : 0, host : \"mongocfg1\"
},{ _id : 1, host : \"mongocfg2\" }, { _id : 2, host : \"mongocfg3\" }]})'
| mongo"*
*
^ here*
This command works just fine at the bash shell of the docker host. I have
tried the ansible shell and the Ansible command module
I know this command looks complicated but please keep in mind I am only
asking how to format this to work in Ansible. I am not asking you to
understand docker exec Mongodb commands ;-)
Thanks for your help
