Re: [ansible-project] [ Ansible ] - Weird nested loop help
Not so obvious to understand...
Perhaps you should try progressive steps and not wanting to do
everything in one unique step
To look for specific file, perhaps you should use the find module with a
register
And after loop on these files using the variable registered before...

Hey community, need your help again...
On my goal of automation I'm blocked on loops... dont know if I'm
doing wrong, need to change approach or if just stupid...
Well, lets try...
I would like to replace lines in FILES_A with lines that are on MAPPING_A.
|
- name: Add values from MAPPING_A to FILES_A
lineinfile:
path: "/PATH_TO/*FILES_A*/{{ item.0 | basename }}"
line: "{{ item.1 }}"
insertafter: "^(.*){{ item.1.split('=') | first }}"
with_nested:
- "{{ lookup('fileglob', '/PATH_TO/*MAPPING_A*/*.TXT') }}"
- "{{ lookup('file', '/PATH_TO/*MAPPING_A*/{{ item.0 | basename
}}.TXT').splitlines() | select() | list }}"
|
Allow me to give more insight of what I want to achieve with that loop:
|
"{{ lookup('fileglob', '/PATH_TO/*MAPPING_A*/*.TXT') }}"
|
^^ want to list all files on that folder, because I will need to
collect /filename/**/- //_thats the reason why i have_ "//{{ item.0 |
basename }}" /_at _*path* - that would be what I use to identify which
files I want to change.
If files exists in that folder will contain content to replace on a
diferent destination and filename is what I'm using. If filename
exists on both sides will collect content and insert it.
so that will be the first loop
|
"{{ lookup('file', '/PATH_TO/*MAPPING_A*/{{ item.0 | basename
}}.TXT').splitlines() | select() | list }}"
|
^^ Ok, after the first loop is in place (list of which files to edit),
now on the second loop I need to /per file/ to read content in order
to replace on the destination.

What is happening?
Maybe its not supposed to... Ansible is not recognizing "{{ item.0 |
basename }}" at second loop
Well... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ again... I'm stuck, can anyone share
thoughts/suggestions with me?

Re: [ansible-project] [ Ansible ] - Weird nested loop help
Hey thanks for your comment regarding automation, it's very useful.
Might not make sense to you and that's the reason why I explained with
details - was to explain what I'm trying to achieve, what I'm trying but
without success and with expectations that someone could share more than
you had done.
Thanks again.

You don't show no evidence of what are you trying to automate :-(.
At any rate it doesn't make sense to use "item" inside the loop definition.
