Hi,
I want to fill a custom dashboard with specifics events raise in a
playbook, not all tasks that can be confuse output for functionnal users.
To do that, I first developped a role, and include it everytime I want to
push an event. This solution works, but introduce so much task in a
playbook. I try to handle exceptions too, so I use block with rescue etc...
and Playbook become so complex with this approch.
So, after some research, I think that a Callback plugin can answer my
needs. The idea is to inject at the plays and tasks levels, a specific var
that the callback plugin can catch and react in function.
Playbook Example ( this is the Ansiboad var ):
*---- name: "Callback module test" hosts: "localhost" gather_facts: no
vars: Ansiboard: project: "{{ Proj }}" environment: "{{
Env }}" tasks: - debug: msg: "{{ Proj }} - {{ Env }}" vars:
Ansiboard: another_project: "{{ Proj }}"
another_environment: "{{ Env }}"*
This playbook is called with this two Extra :
$> ansible-playbook test.yml -e Proj=myproj -e Env=prod
My callback plugin works fine, I can check the presence of the var
Ansiboard and apply actions when needed.
The problem is that Jinja templating isn't apply, for example, when I write
this :
def v2_playbook_on_play_start(self, play):
self.playbook_on_play_start(play.name)
play_vars = play.get_vars()
if "Ansiboard" in play_vars:
ansiconf = play_vars["Ansiboard"]
project = ansiconf["project"]
The value in the project variable is litteraly : {{ Proj }}
Someone knows how I can retreive the final value after the Jinja Template
apply ? How can I launch the Jinja templating engine ? Did I need to get
the VariableManager of the Play / Task ? I very confused how to acheive my
need.
Best regards,
