[ansible-project] Gathering facts for all hosts and using them in a task for a specific group/single machine

Hi guys, Struggling with something that I'd really appreciate some help with. I'm putting together a little role to handle rsnapshot configuration. At the end of a template, I've got a for loop that's supposed to iterate over every host in our inventory (encompassed by the group 'servers'), look

[ansible-project] Dynamically deploying multiple exclusive SSH authorized_keys

Hi all, Further misunderstandings on my part for iterating over varied YAML structures, but here's the deal: I'm writing a super tiny role with the intent of dynamically deploying any authorized_keys defined in a host/group's vars. That is to say, I need a task that will deploy keys to varied us

[ansible-project] Re: help: install/upgrade a list of RPMs

Ah okay, cool :) Hmm, well, does my solution above still not stand? I mean, with your above pseudo code, the second task will install the package if it's not present, in doing so, it will install the latest package. The third task will just ensure any packages in the list installed are at their

[ansible-project] Re: help: install/upgrade a list of RPMs

Hey, I'd recommend you read fully through the 'Getting Started ' guide, and carry on reading through the other docs - reading these and implementing/playing with what they teach is the quickest, most efficient way to learn. That said

[ansible-project] Management of multiple exclusive authorized_keys entries, for multiple users

Hi everyone. I've been mulling something over in my head, I've got something I want to tackle, but I'm not sure how to go about doing so. Here's the scenario: I want to put together a tiny role that manages user's authorized keys. Keys defined in the inventory (host_vars/group_vars/playbook va

Hi guys, I've got something I'd really like some help on, not just the solution, but the understanding and perhaps any related documentation/articles. I'm writing a role for deployment of Hubot. To define bots to be deployed, I'm using a dictionary, like so: hubot_bots: testbot: owner: 'Bo

[ansible-project] Dictionary lookups being clobbered when assigning values to children elsewhere

Hey People, Having some trouble using YAML dictionaries. I'm refactoring my variable structure in a role a wrote a while ago. The variables used to all look like: sensu_api_host, but I wanted to move to using dictionaries, so when referencing them it wouldn't be: {{ sensu_api_host }} it'd be:

I'm working on a role to deploy my Ansible setup (sort of a 'master node' configuration - where I execute Ansible from). Issue Description I've encountered a rather strange issue: I'm able to SSH as the user I'm running Ansible as to systems within my infrastructure using key pair authentica

I've been trying to come up with an elegant solution to this, but alas; no such luck - perhaps some of you smart people can help. Enough blabbering: I have a directory containing subdirectories named after some groups in my inventory. I'm using the 'group_names' variable in the 'src' parameter's
