So I just recently discovered how to list several possible vars_files, with precedence, and where some may not exist:
http://serverfault.com/questions/589734/ansible-can-i-use-vars-files-when-some-files-do-not-exist Very handy. Where is the documentation for this? Next question... I'd like to centralise a list of possible vars_files in a single variable but can't get it to work. E.g: vars_files: - [ "{{ settings_files }}" ] and then in say group_vars/all I have my files defined: settings_files: '"../settings.yml", "../example.settings.yml"' But that doesn't work - I get the following error: vlad: not importing file: /Volumes/Data/Projects/vlad/vlad/vlad/playbooks/"../settings.yml", "../example.settings.yml" ERROR: vlad: FATAL, no files matched for vars_files import sequence: [u'/Volumes/Data/Projects/vlad/vlad/vlad/playbooks/"../settings.yml", "../example.settings.yml"'] It looks like something is happening on expansion that I wasn't expecting. I'm hoping this is just a question of syntax and I've messed around with a few variations but am still having no luck. Can anyone help with this? Is it even possible? I'm running Ansible v1.7.1. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
