<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45968747/conditional-run-of-win-feature-with-ansible#>
I am installing (about 30) and removing (about 40) required windows
features on a 2012 R2 box. My playbook looks like this:
--- - name: Installing features win_feature: name: '{{ item }}' state:
Present with_items: '{{ features_to_install }}'
- name: Removing features win_feature: name: '{{ item }}' state: Absent
with_items: '{{ features_to_remove }}'
I then have my vars in a separate file which look like this:
--- features_to_install: [FileAndStorage-Services,File-Services,.....]
features_to_remove: [AD-Certificate,ADCS-Cert-Authority.....]
All in all, everything works well. But it is too slow as I have to run it
over and over again as I make changes. I want to introduce conditionals
where it "skips" if a feature is already installed or is not present.
I am trying to register the output from a powershell script converted to
Json and then compare with features_to_install but cannot seem to get it
right. The script that Im using:
Get-WindowsFeature | ? {$_.Installed -match "True"} | Select -exp Name |
ConvertTo-Json
Here's what Im working with so far. Any direction/help would be greatly
appreciated: - name: Copy powershell script to list windows features
win_copy: src: '{{ Directory }}/tools/ListWindowsFeatures.ps1' dest: '{{
Powershell }}'
- name: run powershell win_shell: '{{ Powershell
}}/ListWindowsFeatures.ps1' register: presentfeatures
- name: Installing features win_feature: name: File-Services state: Present
with_items: '{{ features_to_install }}' when: presentfeatures !=
features_to_install
