Re: [ansible-project] Ansible Without Python?

I think we are talking cross purposes here. You can create a 'library' as in task. run in any language. I will have a check to see how it executes. But I am pretty sure it executes as bash With file you give it. Get Outlook for iOS From:

Well on the client side you can run any language. Ansible uses the shebang on the task module to execute the script. I have even written a custom module that runs powershell on a linux client. You could run bash. As long as you output json object ansible will just execute and return it back.

Re: [ansible-project] Ansible Without Python?

Hi, There's part of the code that run on the controller, but also on the client. Today you can run the same ansible code on unix and linux server because the python binary is the one used on the client side, if using a compiled language you need to have all the binary version of all your

Re: [ansible-project] Ansible Without Python?

Technically I think you could run ansible in any language. But there would have to be a deep rethink on how to reproduce what had already been created in the python scripts that make up ansible 'workflow'. there is a lot of moving parts in the backend that we don't see. Get Outlook for

[ansible-project] Ansible Without Python?

I had a radical thought the other day. Would it be possible to replace Python as the language used by Ansible with a compiled language, perhaps Go because of its fast compile and link speed? Note that I'm not talking about something like the existing Ansible shell module, which is only useful in

Re: [ansible-project] Need help with tags

I finally found a "trick" that made it for me : Every task in the main.yml from "myrole" are conditioned with a different value for a variable myowntags ex: when: myowntags == "fst-openshot" Then, in a taskfile or playbook, I can select the tasks I want with something like : - name: test

Re: [ansible-project] Need help with tags

Thanks Matt for your quick answer... Even if it doesn't arrange me... ;-) It's weird this is not possible. I'm surprised. I guess I'm not the first one to consider doing this. Is there a reason why ? Did you (or someone else) hear about a "trick" to get a similar behaviour using something else ?

Re: [ansible-project] Need help with tags

There is no capability to limit tags from within a playbook. Tags can only be limited from the CLI via -t/--tags On Wed, Feb 24, 2021 at 10:15 AM Mouton Noir wrote: > Hi, > > I'd like to use tags to select tasks I launch. > I found documentations about how to limit playbook, role... execution
