JSON log callback_plugin questions

[Peter M Souter]

Hello All!

I've made a basic callback_plugin for creating logs as json, check it out: https://github.com/petems/ansible-json

So far so good, it all works.

My plan is to a have a toggableable ability to write the logs to files on the system that ansible's running on (Current progress here: https://github.com/petems/ansible-json/tree/create_json_files).

Two questions:

1) How do I read playbook variables in the plugin? My plan is to have something like this in the playbook:

---

- hosts: all

  vars:

    json_log: true

But I cant figure out how to get this information when the plugin runs.

2) Is there an example of a callback_plugin that reads a config value from the ansible.cfg? I want to be able to set where the ansible json logs are set to by a config setting, rather than hardcode it to /var/log/ansible/hosts/json.

Thanks!

Regards

Hi, 

For callback plugin development questions, can you please post to ansible-devel?

Thank you!
