Invoke roles with different variables

[John Gateley]

Hello,

I have a role "runit_service" that creates a runit service based on variables (service_name, script etc.)

I have two roles that depend on runit_service: role_a and role_b. The intent is to create two runit_services. The tail meta file for role_a looks like:

dependencies:
  - role: runit_service
    vars:
      service_name: role_a
      script: /usr/bin/python3 /usr/local/bin/role_a

and the tail of the meta file for role_b is similar, except it has role_b in place of role_a

Finally my playbook is:

- hosts: "{{ host }}"
  roles:
    - role_a
    - role_b
The issue is that role_b creates a service using the variables from role_a.
What is the proper way to do this?

Thank you very much

John
