Unlike Python module development which can be run on the host that runs Ansible, Windows modules need to be written and tested for Windows hosts. While evaluation editions of Windows can be downloaded from Microsoft, these images are usually not ready to be used by Ansible without further modifi...
Variable ANSIBLE_COMMAND_WARNINGS CONDITIONAL_BARE_VARS Description With this setting on (True), running conditional evaluation ‘var’ is treated differently than ‘var.subkey’ as the first is evaluated directly while the second goes through the Jinja2 parser. But ‘false’ strings in ‘var’ ge...
As you can see, we define the sat_publisher_username variable and reference another variable that is stored in an Ansible Vault protected file. This allows us to create a more portable project. You can reuse the code easily without having to search through all the code for vaulted variable...

Security fix for safe_eval, which further hardens the checking of the evaluation function. Changing order of variable precedence for system facts, to ensure that inventory variables take precedence over any facts that may be set on a host. 1.5.3 "Love Walks In" - March 13, 2014 Fix validat...
In order to do so use thevariable below: reposearch_shared_secret: dummy Note: Do not use a secret called dummy as shown above, but use a strongersecret. This secret should be placed either in the inventory file under the allgroup scope, or passed as an extra variable (itneeds...

Lazy Evaluation In general, Ansible evaluates any variables in playbook content at the last possible second, which means that if you define a data structure that data structure itself can define variable values within it, and everything “just works” as you would expect. This also means va...
(ParseCpeName) * cleanup - removed redundant variable usage in GatherUnprocessedAdvisories * cleanup - removed redundant second parse for already-parsed package list * updated feature creation for module namespaces, to create a feature for each namespace * removed no longer used function (Construct...
The variable value will be used as is, but the template evaluation will raise an error if it is undefined.Defaulting Undefined Variables Jinja2 provides a useful ‘default’ filter that is often a better approach to failing if a variable is not defined: {{ some_variable | default(5) }} ...
