Trying to get a playbook working with yml file containing 2 lists and
passing that into the main file to loop over.
Can someone help with letting me know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks
copylist.yml
---
copylist:
src:
- /home/ansible/tom/tom.txt
- /home/ansible/fred/fred.txt
dest:
- /home/ansible/tom1
- /home/ansible/fred1
Playbook - copy.yml
---
- hosts: localhost
become: yes
vars:
users:
- tom
- fred
vars_files:
- copylist.yml
tasks:
- name: Create users from vars
user:
name: "{{item}}"
state: present
with_items: "{{users}}"
- name: Copy files into target directories
copy:
src: "{{item.src}}"
dest: "{{item.dest}}"
with_items: "{{copylist}}"
Playbook output -
TASK [Copy files into target directories]
**************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "the field 'args'
has an invalid value, which appears to include a variable that is
undefined. The error was: 'ansible.vars.unsafe_proxy.AnsibleUnsafeText
object' has no attribute 'dest'\n\nThe error appears to have been in
'/etc/ansible/playbooks/copy.yml': line 18, column 7, but may\nbe elsewhere
in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line
appears to be:\n\n\n - name: Copy files into target directories\n ^
here\n"}
