Need assistance

[Y.G Kumar]

Hi All,

I want to refer user defined ansible variables inside a shell script.  Can anyone help me how to  accomplish this ? For example, for the below code:

--

    - name: Execute the script
      ansible.builtin.command: bash /tmp/test.sh
--

I want to access ansible variables inside the shell script test.sh.

Please help me.

Thanks

Y.G

You can try 

Yaml

- name: Execute the script with variables

  ansible.builtin.command: bash /tmp/test.sh

  vars:

    script_var1: "{{ ansible_var1 }}"

    script_var2: "{{ ansible_var2 }}"

Shell script 

#!/bin/bash

echo "Script variable 1: $script_var1"

echo "Script variable 2: $script_var2"

I am trying this:

---

---
- hosts: localhost
  vars:
    script_var1: "hi"
    script_var2: "there"
  tasks:
    - name: List
      shell: bash test.sh

cat test.sh

--

#!/bin/bash

echo "$script_var1"
echo "$script_var2"

--

But it is not working. The ansible is not picking up the variable values. stdout is empty:

--

    "stdout": "",
    "stdout_lines": []

1) This is the second message you have sent to this list asking for help with using Ansible when that's not what this list is for, after I (and perhaps others) emailed you privately and politely pointed out you were on the wrong list and pointed you at the correct forums for Ansible usage questions. Please respect the members of this list and do not continue to seek Ansible usage help here.

2) The previous answer you were given is not correct. Please see https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_environment.html.
