Hello,
I know, I know... It's getting boring, but... I keep bumping into this a
LOT.
I would like to bring back include + with_items again.
Consider having:
- one nginx role
- a few other roles, let's say it's a wordpress role for now.
I'd like the nginx role to create a few sites that are given to it with its
parameters by default, but I would like the wordpress role to be able to
create other nginx sites for its own use.
What I am doing right now is that I have a tasks file in the nginx role
that will take in a template parameter and a site name, and it will create
that site, and enable it by symlinking into sites-enabled.
BUT!
In the nginx role I cannot use this tasks file, since I would have to do an
include + with_items, so I had to duplicate that functionality, and assign
with_items to each and every one of the tasks described within.
What I would like to do is:
having a var like
sites:
- name: site1
someparameter: 42
- name: site2
someparameter: 4242
To be able to call
- include: create_site
with_items: sites
That would be the same as
- include: create_site name=site1 someparameter=42
- include: create_site name=site2 someparameter=4242
I know there are some problems with this, and it was deprecated due to
confusion about how it worked.
Maybe it should be brought back under another name? Maybe there is another
solution for problems like this?
What is the ansible way of doing things such as this one?
Thanks,
Akos
