GET IP AND HOST NAME AND SAVE IT TO FILE IN LOCALHOST

[gr00t]

HI,

I am trying to create a task that will get the host target IP address and host-name that are in the inventory then save it to a file in the local directory.

Would love to save the data like this:

hostname:ip-address

Kindly assist, don't know where to start?

/gr00t

Something like this will do the trick:

- name: Content
  hosts: elkmaster
  gather_facts: no
  vars:
    report_file: "/home/jrua/report.txt"
  tasks:
    - name: create file
      file:
        dest: "{{ report_file }}"
        state: touch
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: copy content
      lineinfile:
        line: "{{ hostvars[inventory_hostname]['inventory_hostname_short'] + ':' + hostvars[inventory_hostname]['ip'] }}"
        dest: "{{ report_file }}"
        insertafter: EOF
      delegate_to: localhost
      loop: "{{ groups['elkmaster'] }}"

Using as inventory :

[elkmaster]
es_master ip='1.1.1.1'
es_data01 ip='2.3.3.4'

[elkdata]
es_data01 ip='2.3.3.4'
es_data02 ip='21.21.21.1'

Results in:

es_master:1.1.1.1
es_data01:2.3.3.4

HTH,

Regards
