Where is the difference between calling from console and calling from a script? E.g., SCRIPTARGS="location=chennai region=south" bash -c 'ansible-playbook -i dynamicInventory.py my_playbook.yml' When you evaluate SCRIPTARGS inside dynamicInventory.py I don't see where the difference is compared to your "--script-args" -- apart from the syntax.

Environment variable kind of solution is good as long as I call my playbooks from console. But when it comes to automation by integrating with external systems; the inventory generator/builder should be good enough to pull inventory artifacts from database, REST APIs,... All I need is something like ansible-playbook -i dynamicInventory.py --script-args "location=chennai region=south" my_playbook.yml here '--script-args' helps dyamicInventory.py program to pull inventory artifacts for specified location and region from some datastore On Sunday, 20 March 2016 09:35:03 UTC+5:30, Brian Coca wrote: > > there is no way to do what you ask, options for dynamic inventory are set > either in configuration files or environment variables. > > > -- > Brian Coca > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.

there is no way to do what you ask, options for dynamic inventory are set either in configuration files or environment variables. -- Brian Coca -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.

[ansible-project] How to pass command line arg as input for dynamic-inventory executable program during ansible-playbook launch
dynamic inventory can be achieved by ansible-playbook -i dynamicInventory.py myplaybook.yml in case I need to pass some dynamic input to the dynamicInventory.py program itself, how can I do that. Command line argument is not working when it coupled with ansible-playbook command Any suggestions -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
