What is the recommended way to use "saved" conditionals? Something like this:
ansible_hosts has this: machine1 amazon=yes vars: is_amazon: (amazon == "yes") tasks: shell: echo we are on amazon when: is_amazon Can ansible treat expressions in brackets in vars: section as "saved" conditional? E.g. evaluate it and store in the value boolean True or False? This way the conditional loader does not need to do any lookups, just evaluate the expression as is. Another question I have - whether the values of variables should be quoted? Double or single quote? From my experience, the quotes in ansible are treated as part of the value. -- Arie On Sunday, March 23, 2014 4:05:00 PM UTC+2, Michael DeHaan wrote: > > You can't load a "saved" conditional that way (at least currently) as the > conditional loader doesn't do recursive lookups. > > -- Michael > > On Mar 23, 2014, at 7:42 AM, Arie Skliarouk <[email protected]<javascript:>> > wrote: > > The following playbook does not work properly - the action is always > executed, why is that? > > --- > - hosts: * > vars: > x: 5 > y: 7 > > is_false1: x>y > is_false2: x>y > tasks: > > - name: either is true > shell: echo either is true > when: is_false1 or is_false2 > >> >> -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ansible Project" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected] <javascript:>. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]<javascript:> > . > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/ansible-project/2ee6e2c4-a02d-4ea7-8c2b-f55f843de572%40googlegroups.com<https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/ansible-project/2ee6e2c4-a02d-4ea7-8c2b-f55f843de572%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
