I'm trying to create an external file that every single task (Python modules for which I've implemented) in the playbook should read from and write into some information.
I wanted to use the process ID for the playbook itself but I'm not sure how to fetch this information from within the module itself i.e. the python script itself. $PPID keeps changing as evidenced by the following playbook. [image: Untitled.png] the value for the PPID was "stdout": "2850132" "stdout": "2850343" the 1st and 2nd times respectively. Is there any value like a process ID or something similar that is 1. Unique to this instance of the playbook run ? 2. Accessible to the module's underlying python script ? 3. Without involving use of psutil or any package that doesn't come as part of Python 3.X For a better reading experience, check out https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68677124/getting-a-id-value-unique-to-an-instance-of-an-ansible-playbook -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
