[ansible-project] How to Random Roles

[Francis Santos]

I gotta random both the hosts and the roles.

I successfully randomed the hosts, but I not getting the roles to random.

Here is what I got

---
- hosts: "{{ (groups['foo'] | shuffle)[0:1] }}"
  become: yes
  vars:
   - ansible_sudo_pass: ******
  roles: 

   - reboot || shutdown 

Need a way to random a single role among all roles. In this example I have a reboot and shutdown

Any suggestions?

Are you trying to randomly select a role, randomly select a host, then run the selected role on the selected host?

No, the picture is that the role is not on the hosts.

First I random a host (that script does that).

Once a host is selected then the role is randomized.

[Francis Santos]

I figured out.

I came with this:

- hosts: "{{ (groups['foo'] | shuffle)[0:1] }}"  #THIS SCRIPT RANDOMS THE HOST
  become: true
  vars:
   - ansible_sudo_pass: *******
  roles:
   - role: "{{ ['reboot','shutdown'] | random }}"   #THIS SCRIPT RANDOMS THE ROLE

So I guess we can consider this issue solved.

Thanks anyways, guys
