using 2 loops with_first_found and with_items

[Hudec Peter]

Hi,

I’m trying to write role for configuration of the package management. In
this role I following setup.

— defaults/main.yml
debain_source_list:
- name: debian
state: enabled
- name: debian-backports
state: enabled
- name: debian-lts
state: enabled





— task/setup-Debian.yml
- name: "[repository] apt source list files"
action: template src=???? dest=/etc/apt/sources.d/????.list
with_items: " {{ debain_source_list }}"
when: "item.state != 'enabled'"
with_first_found:
- {{ item.name }}.list.{{ ansible_lsb.id }}.{{ ansible_lsb.codename }}
- default.list


The idea is to have separate source list files for each Debian release
/wheeze, squeeze, …/, if the file is not found put there some default
file. The problem is how to run more loops and address variables in one
action.

Consider this to be an example and will be used as template for another
actions. I do not want to sync the directories.

Best regards
Peter Hudec

Can't combine these two things.

Also, when using with_foo: var, don't use jinja2.

Not like:

with_items: "{{ foo }}"

Do it like so:

with_items: alist_variable

I'd just have a bunch of templates like so:

- template: src={{ item}} dest=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/{{ item.basename }}

  with_fileglob: '*.sources.j2'

You may need to reference a hash that keys off of something like "{{ item | basename }}" inside your template, such as

{# set basename = item|basename #}

{{ repo_url[basename] }}

etc

Sort of make sense?

Hi Micheal,

I will try your approach but I found it no so pretty as suggested :)

Thanks

Peter

My suggestion is 2 lines in the playbook versus your 7.
