Hmm -
I have fixed it with a when statement and then notify a handler that in
turns install and notifies yet another handler.
Thou this solution does not look nice and I would really like to not relay
on any other managementsystem other then Ansible.
My sollution to problem looks like this atm:
- name: something
<do something>
register: something
ignore_errors: True
- name: simplejson
raw: "yum -y install python-simplejson"
when: something|failed
notify:
- somethingAgain
handlers:
- name: somethingAgain
<some action again>
...
The above one works kinda but is not the best looking.
Preffered would be similar to:
- name: something
<do something>
register: something
notify_when: something|failed
- simplejson
handlers:
- name: simplejson
raw: "yum -y install python-simplejson"
Does anyone know if something like this might be implemented in the near
future or if anyone can point me to where I can suggest a "patch" :)
