[ansible-project] Re: loop and pass variables from vars_files to task command

[Matthew DeSantos]

Well I've tried rearranging my playbook to use a lookup plugin, which 
seems to work but I still can't figure out how to loop over my list until 
it completes.

I added this 'vars' section to the play with the same results as before (a 
single VLAN gets created and ansible moves onto the next task)

  vars:   
name: "{{lookup('vars', 'vlan_name')}}"
id: "{{lookup('vars', 'vlan_id')}}"
subnet: "{{lookup('vars', 'vlan_subnet')}}"

[ansible-project] loop and pass variables from vars_files to task command

[Matthew DeSantos]

Hi Folks,

I'm trying to loop over a list of production vlan's using a vars_file named 
exos_vlans.yml. 

The playbook runs fine on the first vlan but doesn't attempt to create the 
2nd vlan. It just starts the next task and finishes up w/out any errors. 

My file includes 3 variables (vlan_name, vlan_id, vlan_subnet). 

Here's my playbook, any suggestions would be appreciated. 

---
- hosts: 172.16.1.1
  connection: local
  tags: conf_vlan
  vars_files:
- group_vars/exos_reqs.yml
- vault/exos_admin.yml
- group_vars/exos_vlans.yml # My list of VLAN/IP/VID
  
  tasks:
- name: Create production VLAN's
  exos_config:
lines:
  - create vlan "{{ vlan_name }}" tag "{{ vlan_id }}"

- name: Configure VLAN IP
  exos_config:
lines:
  - configure vlan "{{ vlan_name }}" ipaddress "{{ vlan_subnet }}"
  - enable ipforwarding vlan "{{ vlan_name }}"
  
- name: Show VLAN
  exos_command:
commands: show vlan
  register: show_vlan

- debug: var=show_vlan.stdout_lines

- name: save running to startup when modified
  exos_config:
save_when: modified


 My vars_file 
--- - vlan_name: Test1 vlan_id: 10 vlan_subnet: 10.3.10.2/24 - vlan_name: 
Test2 vlan_id: 20 vlan_subnet: 10.3.20.2/24
