selecting file based on hostname

[Krushna Chandra Sahu]

Hi Team,

  I need a playbook to update the sudoer file based on os distribution. I have written below code but it is failing.

- name: Copy sudoers files

      copy:

        src: files/{{ file_name }}

        dest: /etc/sudoers

        validate: /usr/sbin/visudo -csf %s

      {% if ansible_distribution == "amazon" %}

      file_name: 'sudoers.aspera'

      {% elif ansible_distribution == "Debian" %}

      file_name: 'sudoers.debian'

      {% else %}

      file_name: 'sudoers.general'

      {% end %}

The offending line appears to be:

        validate: /usr/sbin/visudo -csf %s

      {% if ansible_distribution == "amazon" %}

       ^ here

Regards

Do as the following, which will make playbook readable

file_name: sudoers.general

tasks:

- name: Set file name when Amazon

set_fact:

file_name: "sudoers.aspera"

when: ansible_distribution == 'amazon'

- name: Set file name when Debian

set_fact:

file_name: "sudoers.debian"

when: ansible_distribution == 'Debian'

- debug:

msg: "{{ file_name }}"

This is also possible

vars:

file_name_mapping:

amazon: "sudoers.general"

debian: "sudoers.debian"

tasks:

- debug:

msg: "{{ file_name_mapping[ansible_distribution] | default('sudoers.general')}}"
