loop variable on task file does not work

[COUSSI Matthieu]

Hi everyone,

I have a variable where i want to loop on this in a .yml task file :

My variable :

lst_apps:
 - {name: APP01,        version: 1234,    bdd_sid: BDDSID,     bdd_host: SERVEURBDD,      bdd_port: 1525}

Content of my main.xml :

- name: Test display variable
  debug:
    msg: "{{ lst_apps }}"
  tags: test


- name: Installation des differentes applications
  include: 2-install.yml
  with_items:
     - "{{ lst_apps }}"
  loop_control:
    loop_var: tmp_deploy_app
  tags: install,test

Content of my yml task file where the loop is executed :

- name: Test display variable in task file
  debug:
    msg: "{{ item.bdd_sid }}"
  with_items: "{{ tmp_deploy_app }}"

  

When i execute the task, the content of variable is correctly display but the loop in the task file does not work :

[root@ANSIBLESRV projet]# ansible-playbook -l TEST_SRV /projet/playbooks/DEPLOY_test.yml --extra-vars @extra-vars/structure.yml --tags "test"
 [WARNING]: While constructing a mapping from /projet/roles/TEST_ROLE/tasks/main.yml, line 12, column 3, found a duplicate dict key
(tags). Using last defined value only.

Thanks for your help,

tmp_deploy_app doesn't contain a list, it is a dict.
You can check that with putting this first in your 2-install.yml file

- debug: var=tmp_deploy_app


So if you are going to loop you need to use with_dict.
But for you example above you only need this

- name: Test display variable in task file
debug:

msg: "{{ tmp_deploy_app.bdd_sid }}"

Hi,

Thanks for your reply,

I have this in my main.yml :

- name: Installation des differentes applications
  include: 2-install.yml
  with_items:

     - "{{ mcs_lst_apps }}"

  loop_control:
    loop_var: tmp_deploy_app
  tags: install,test

  

And this in my 2-install.yml

- debug: var=tmp_deploy_app

But when i execute it, it's the same thing :

TASK [MCS_ROLE : Installation des differentes applications] ********************************************************************************************
included: /projet/roles/MCS_ROLE/tasks/2-install.yml for SERVER
