[ansible-project] Issue while parsing Complex Regular expression in YAML file

[Pawan Kumar]

Issue is coming while parsing the following regular expression 

"^[a-zA-Z0-9-+.#$%&~*\/=?^_ '\"\\!]{9,430}$"


*Tried other options like *



"^[a-zA-Z0-9-+.#$%&~*\/=?^_ '\\\"\\!]{9,430}$"


'^[a-zA-Z0-9-+.#$%&~*\/=?^_ '\"\\!]{9,430}$'

Re: [ansible-project] Add new line “\n” character to Ansible set_fact variable

[Shifa Shaikh]

Stephan Hi, 

The article does not discuss newline inside parenthesis `{{` inside a 
variable definition. That is where I have no clue.

Re: [ansible-project] Add new line “\n” character to Ansible set_fact variable

[Shifa Shaikh]

@Dick VIsser Hi, 

Upon your suggestion, I tried something like this but it too does not work.

   - set_fact:

   mailbody: "{{ mailbody | default('') + 'PROFILE_NAME:' + 
 PROFILE_NAME ~ \"\n\n\"'SERVER_NAME:' + SERVER_NAME ~ \"\n\n\"'NODE_NAME:' 
+  NODE_NAME ~ \"\n\n\n\n\" }}"

Can someone please suggest?

Re: [ansible-project] Convert Ansible playbook to bash script

[Dick Visser]

Hi

It would help if you come up with actual playbooks and a (better)
description of what this is actually about.
I see a few random technology names like vagrant, virtual box, EC2 but
those mean nothing without context.
You will get the best results with specific questions about Ansible related
issues.
On the other hand, reverse engineering documentation from abandoned
playbooks might not yield too many responses.

[ansible-project] Convert Ansible playbook to bash script

[Sushant Sawant]

Hi guys,

Little bit of background, I have a project which has ansible playbook 
vagrant installation. This runs on my local machine Ubuntu 18.04

There is no developer working on this, I have no experience on ansible.

To take this to server, ansible is unable to access  port on virtual 
box on EC2 instance. After googling stuffs I find, running another virtual 
machine on EC2 is not allowed, as EC2 itself is an virtual machine.

So as an solution, I thought of running this ansible playbook on localhost 
of EC2 instance. The playbook ran successfully with no error but it missed 
lots of settings or rather skipped.

If I can get bash scripts from ansible helps me to understand parameter, 
variables required.

Any new idea helps..

Thanks,
Sushant

Re: [ansible-project] Add new line “\n” character to Ansible set_fact variable

[Dick Visser]

I won't comment on whatever it is you're trying to do, but in any case you
need to use double quotes around the newlines

[ansible-project] Add new line “\n” character to Ansible set_fact variable

[Shifa Shaikh]

How can I add new line characters to Ansible variable mailbody. This 
mailbody variable is used for mail module's body attribute.


I tried the below from suggestions but none of them works. 


1. 

  - set_fact:
   mailbody: "{{ mailbody | default('') + 'PROFILE_NAME:' +  PROFILE_NAME ~ 
'\n\nSERVER_NAME:' + SERVER_NAME ~ '\n\nNODE_NAME:' +  NODE_NAME ~ '\n\n\n\n' 
}}"

2.

  mailbody: "{{ mailbody | default('') + 'PROFILE_NAME:' +  PROFILE_NAME 
~}} {{ 'SERVER_NAME:' + SERVER_NAME ~ }}\n\n{{'NODE_NAME:' +  NODE_NAME ~ 
}}\n\n\n\n"

3.

 mailbody: | 
 "{{ mailbody | default('') + 'PROFILE_NAME:' +  PROFILE_NAME ~}}"
 "{{ 'SERVER_NAME:' + SERVER_NAME ~ }}"
 "{{'NODE_NAME:' +  NODE_NAME ~ }}"

In the mail body i see '\n' instead of the new line charecter. 

Can you please suggest ?

Re: [ansible-project] aws community edition and collection

[Matt Martz]

Largely the split was done between what was previously "core" supported and
what was community supported.

amazon.aws is supported by Red Hat/Ansible employees, and community.aws is
technically supported by the community.

New modules/plugins should almost definitely be submitted to community.aws,
and if it is deemed it should be supported, it can be moved at a later date.

[ansible-project] aws community edition and collection

[Sydo Luciani]

aws modules have been redirected/moved to two different repositories, some
to community.aws and some to amazon.aws

https://github.com/ansible-collections/amazon.aws
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.aws


My first question is, what was the criteria for moving each modules to
different repositories ? so we know the correct place to submit future aws
modules !!! is there a change log for this move ?

My second question is for those with more experience with Ansible and
github:
isn't better to make the amazon.aws plugin directory be the sub
repository/sub module/fork or mirror of community.aws plugin directory ?
this way modules and plugins version and code stay the same in both, while
one will be used as collection and one as module 

Thanks

Re: [ansible-project] Getting the version of an Ansible Galaxy role

[Brian Coca]

if they are your roles a _rolname_version in vars/main.yml would be a
good workaround.

Re: [ansible-project] With_items /pass var - string.

[Dick Visser]

All the looping constructs (with_items etc) assume you have some data
structure that is iterable, ie. a list, a dict, etc.
>From your vars file it seems (guessing here) that you want to iterate
over multiple independent variables.
If that is the case, I would suggest restructuring those multiple vars
to one iterable var.
This will give you a lot more flexibility elsewhere in your deployment as well.

For example:

allsizes:
  - config: "DC2019"
name: small2019
InstallMedia:
  Source: "someshare\\"
  SourceVHDX: "Virtual Hard Disks\\DC2019.vhdx"
  Destination: "C:\\ISOs\\MDT\\DC2019\\"
  - config: "DC2019"
name: large2019
InstallMedia:
  Source: "someshare\\"
  SourceVHDX: "Virtual Hard Disks\\DC2019.vhdx"
  Destination: "C:\\ISOs\\MDT\\DC2019\\"

(Note that apart from the name (which used to be your variable name),
the dicts are exactly the same - I guess this is just example data and
in reality these actually differ)


If this is now what you want, then explain better what you do want. I
would help if you provide real world examples.

Re: [ansible-project] Passing variables between hosts

[Dick Visser]

You seem to be trying to terminate an instance from that very instance?
That doesn't sound like it would work.
You should use another host.
