Do I need to write a custom plugin of some kind?
I'm experimenting with writing a vars plugin, referring to these:
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_plugins.html
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/plugins/vars/host_group_vars.py
I've put it in the vars_plugins directory in my role.
So far, I can create variables, and access them from my role, which is good.
What I can't do, as far as I can see, is access existing facts/vars. Do
they exist at this point? Or is my plugin running at a lower level?
I was hoping they would be returned by the call to:
super(VarsModule, self).get_vars(loader, path, entities)
... but that returns None.
Is there a different kind of plugin that could do the job?
Thanks,
Richard
