[ansible-project] Re: Pass complex variables into roles

2016-07-18 Thread Eric Bruno
Hi folks,

Maybe there is no solution for that exactly. I want to make a role that is 
completly free from looping over a list of complex map like so:

# group_vars/python-app/apps.yml
-python_apps:
  - name: foo
uno: 1
dos: 2
[...]
  - name: bar
uno: 1000
dos: 2000
[...]

# roles/python-apps/tasks/main.yml
- include: install.yml
  with_items: "{{python_apps}}"
  tags:
- python-apps
- install

# roles/python-apps/tasks/install.yml
- debug: var={{item.name}}

The role itself is maintenable, but the group_vars file containing all 
complex data structures will become huge and hard to maintain. What do you 
do in this case?

Thanks !
Kindly

[ansible-project] Pass complex variables into roles

2016-07-11 Thread Eric Bruno
Hi folks,

I'm facing an issue with roles call in plays when passing complex var. I 
want to find a way to pass variable by reference like so:

#group_vars/python-app/fooapi.yml

fooapi:
  uno: 1
  dos: 2


#group_vars/python-app/barapi.yml

fooapi:
  uno: 1000
  dos: 2000

#play.yml

- hosts: python-app
  roles:
- { role: python, app: fooapi}
- { role: python, app: barapi}

#roles/python/tasks/main.yml

- debug: var=app

This is maybe a bad practice but if we found a solution, this is a very 
usefull and nice way to do what I want to do.

Thank you for your help :)
