Hello,

I'm creating a Ansible role to place a set of scripts to managed hosts so 
that they can start by cron in a defined schedule. Since it is a set of 
scripts, I want to generalize the play execution sequence to use a loop. 
This will be before loop:

---

- name: Create directory
  file:
    path: /mydirectory
    state: directory
    owner: root
    group: root
    mode: 0755

- name: Install script1
  template:
    src: script1.sh.j2
    dest: /mydirectory/script1.sh

- name: Create cronjob for script1
  cron:
    name: script1 run every minute
    cron_file: script1_cron
    user: root
    job: /mydirectory/script1.sh

- name: Install script2
  template:
    src: script2.sh.j2
    dest: /mydirectory/script2.sh

- name: Create cronjob for script2
  cron:
    name: script2 run every 10 minutes
    minute: */10
    cron_file: script2_cron
    user: root
    job: /mydirectory/script2.sh

Since it is a set of scripts, I figured it would be possible to generalize 
using loop but I don't know how. In place of script1/script2, it will be a 
variable name. How do I generalize every minute, every 10 minutes, every 
hour, or specific date & time as a variable within a loop?

Thank you,
