Hi all; Our company has 150+ files in an ansible repository, written by many authors over years.
I'd like to reformat them into a canonical format, so that we can write utilities to update them without having to handle all the variations. I tried to use the python version of `yq <https://kislyuk.github.io/yq/>` to do it: ----- cat input.yml \ | sed 's/^\( *mode: \)\([^" ]*\)/\1"\2"/; s/^ *\(#.*\)/- "\1"/; s/^---/- "#---"/' \ | yq -Y . \ | sed 's/^\( *- name:\)/\n\1/; s/^- "#---"/---/; s/^- "\(#.*\)"/\1/' \ > output.yml diff input.yml output.yml ----- but that feels like a hack (had to work around comments being stripped, file permissions changing from octal to decimal, etc). Ideally, ansible-playbook would have a `--dump-playbook-file=output.yml` to do this, since Ansible is the ultimate judge of what a playbook means, but my RFE <https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/75696> was redirected to the mailing list. :-) Any ideas?
