Hi,
I've been made a orchistration tool by Ansible1.9, and trying to update
Ansible to the 2.0version.
I found there are some syntax rules that were changed (maybe bugs?) in
Ansbile2.0.
I have to use modules in playbook, which are written as bash scripts,
and there are some parameters that contain space in their arguments.
When I execute playbook in Ansbile1.9, result showed the argument like
var="argument A".
While in Ansbile 2.0, it is now shown as var="'argument A'".
The argument will be added a pair of quotation marks inside the double
quotation marks.
I'm wondering why the difference happened? Which of the two results should
be right?
If this is a bug in Ansible2.0, can I expect that it will be fixed?
Here is the sample module. And results in both version of Ansible.
=========================================================================================
*<< sample module >>*
[root@ansible ansible]# cat library/hello.sh
#!/bin/bash
source ${1}
echo ${msg1} ${msg2} >&2
echo -n "{\"rc\": 0 ,\"changed\": true ,\"msg\": {\"msg1\": \"${msg1}\"
,\"msg2\": \"${msg2}\"}}"
exit 0
[root@ansible ansible]# cat hello.yml
#
# ansible loop test
