I am exploring writing Action Plugins. What I am writing is a custom action plugin that runs a 'compliance' module on the destination Windowd host to determine whether a certain task has been completed or not. The reason why I have it in an action plugin and not a module is that the destination host may reboot and if it reboots then the module will break. I have a timeout feature.
Anyway I was wondering how to handle when the server reboots, and the action plugin is running the self.execute_module there will be a connection error. I am accounting for a AnsibleConnectionFailure error. The gist for it is here https://gist.github.com/weiyentan/b793bddd1c949940f044f337715f6b6d the full block of code is here . apfw_win_update_ansible_collection/apfw_wait.py at develop ยท weiyentan/apfw_win_update_ansible_collection (github.com) <https://github.com/weiyentan/apfw_win_update_ansible_collection/blob/develop/plugins/action/apfw_wait.py> Is this the right way to handle it? Many thanks for any guidance. Its my first time giving this a go and I am learning a lot along the way. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Development" group.
