Fact gathering when ansible run inside docker container

[menon...@gmail.com]

I have a docker container from inside which I'm running ansible.

When I gather facts for the container (ansible -m setup localhost) , i see that the network related (ansible_default_ipv4) facts are not gathered.

Is there an explaination for this? Execution from outside the container is as expected

Those facts are gathered using standard tools for the OS detected, some of the containers are stripped/do not ship with these tools.
