I have found that if you want to wrap the running of a playbook inside of a python script (so you can make the interface a bit more user friendly and translate cmdline args to --extra-vars, etc), the 2.0 API is much simpler.
from ansible.cli.playbook import PlaybookCLI cliargs = { 'playbook':pb, 'args': { '-i':host_list, '-e':json.dumps(xvars), } } def _run_playbook_v20(cliargs): ansargs=['ansible-playbook',cliargs['playbook']] [ansargs.extend([k,v]) for k,v in cliargs['args'].items()] print "executing: {}".format(' '.join(ansargs)) cli = PlaybookCLI(ansargs) cli.parse() return cli.run() -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
