Ansible Extra Vars List Array | Ansible Extra Vars File JSON - DecodingDevops
Using ansible extra vars we can pass the variable list, we can pass variable array and also we can pass extra vars with json file. In this post we are going to see how to pass ansible extra vars list, ansible extra vars in json file and ansible pass variable array.
Syntax:
JSON string format: ansible-playbook release.yml --extra-vars '{"version":"1.23.45","other_variable":"foo"}' ansible-playbook arcade.yml --extra-vars '{"pacman":"mrs","ghosts":["inky","pinky","clyde","sue"]}'
using above format we can pass ansible variable as a list or array.
Example:
root@ip-172-31-37-35:~# cat list.yml --- - hosts: localhost gather_facts: no tasks: - name: ansible extra vars list command line debug: msg: "Hi This Is {{ abc }}" - name: ansible extra vars list debug: msg: "Hi This Is {{ xyz[1] }}"
Output:
root@ip-172-31-37-35:~# ansible-playbook list.yml -e '{"abc":"decodingdevops","xyz":["inky","pinky","clyde","sue"]}' [WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available. Note that the implicit localhost does not match 'all' PLAY [localhost] *********************************************************************************************************************************************************** TASK [ansible extra vars list command line] ******************************************************************************************************************************** ok: [localhost] => { "msg": "Hi This Is decodingdevops" } TASK [ansible extra vars list] ********************************************************************************************************************************************* ok: [localhost] => { "msg": "Hi This Is pinky" } PLAY RECAP ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************** localhost : ok=2 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0 skipped=0 rescued=0 ignored=0
