I messed up and deleted my first post. Sorry!
I think I need another pair of eyes here. I am attempting to run a dict of
users through an ipa user-add command, but it fails with the error
"with_dict expects a dict." I believe I have formatted my dict correctly
(it's about 40,000 lines long, generated from a python3 script):
---
students:
username1:
lastname: jibberish
firstname: jibberish
firstinitial: jibberish
studentid: jibberish
dob: jibberish
dateexpires: 2018-06-19
epochexpiry: 1529415778
uid: jibberish
passwordhash: "jibberish"
username2:
lastname: jibberish
firstname: jibberish
firstinitial: jibberish
studentid: jibberish
dob: jibberish
dateexpires: 2018-06-19
epochexpiry: 1529416593
uid: jibberish
passwordhash: "jibberish"
username3:
lastname: jibberish
firstname: jibberish
firstinitial: jibberish
studentid: jibberish
dob: jibberish
dateexpires: 2018-06-19
epochexpiry: 1529416755
uid: jibberish
passwordhash: "jibberish"
And here is the play where I am trying to use it:
- name: Add existing student users to ipaserver
command: "/bin/ipa user-add
{{ item.key }}
--first='{{ item.value.firstname }}'
--last='{{ item.value.lastname }}'
--cn='{{item.value.firstname}} {{item.value.lastname}}'
--email={{ item.value.name }}@d <http://stu.parkland.edu/>omain
--shell=/bin/bash
--homedir='/home/students/{{ item.value.firstinitial }}/{{
item.key }}'
--uid='{{ item.value.uid }}'
--gidnumber='{{ item.value.uid }}'
--skeleton=/etc/skel
--setattr userpassword='{crypt}{{ item.value.passwordhash}}'
--title=student"
with_dict: "{{students}}"
register: added_students
And the error:
TASK [Add existing student users to ipaserver]
*********************************
fatal: [216.125.253.133]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "with_dict
expects a dict"}
Running it verbose only gives me the task path in addition to the above
error.
Is there a maximum size a dict can be? Is there something else wrong with
my dict? I have tried it as a list (with a -<space> before each username
and with_items in the play), but got a unicode error. I'm stumped.
Thanks for taking a look!
