If your just trying to get the syntax of the json right, there are easier
ways to test. heres the above as an inventory script.
#!/usr/bin/env python
import json
inv = {
"company": {
"hosts": [
"server",
"sensor"
]
},
"_meta": {
Just to add, if I change the line to:
"ansible_ssh_port" : 22
I get:
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '22}'
I edited "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ansible/inventory/host.py"
and before line 32 added:
print '>>' + port + '<<'
Which outputs:
>> 22}<<
