Prevent caching when calling ansible 2.0 from Python API

[max.wi...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

our general setup is based on the idea to have an ansible environment with roles and vars and everything, that can be used

both by command line and also programatically from python. It was quite easy with ansible 1.9, but i struggle to get it with

newer ansible 2.0.

Here is the point, i can't get fixed:

In python:

from ansible.cli.playbook import *

from ansible.executor.playbook_executor import *

from ansible.utils.vars import combine_vars

my_cli=PlaybookCLI(['', '/amplay/reboot.yml','-i','/amplay/hosts','-l','nuc5'])

my_cli.parse()

results=my_cli.run()

Output:

PLAY [Start Protected] *********************************************************

TASK [twist-protected : include] ***********************************************

included: /amplay/roles/twist-protected/tasks/start-protected.yml for nuc5

TASK [twist-protected : Workaround delegate_to user name problem] **************

ok: [nuc5]

TASK [twist-protected : Check Twistprotected] **********************************

ok: [nuc5 -> localhost]

.....

Now i run the same code a second time:

my_cli=PlaybookCLI(['', '/amplay/reboot.yml','-i','/amplay/hosts','-l','nuc5'])

my_cli.parse()

results=my_cli.run()

Output:

PLAY [Start Protected] *********************************************************

TASK [twist-protected : include] ***********************************************

included: /amplay/roles/twist-protected/tasks/start-protected.yml for nuc5

TASK [twist-protected : include] ***********************************************

included: /amplay/roles/twist-protected/tasks/setup-proxy.yml for nuc5

.....

It does not execute the tasks, but just skips without any message!

Apparently there is some caching or similar, that tells ansible not to repeat the execution of the playbook.

This might make sense for some scenarios, but how can i switch it off? I tried with `flush-cache` cmd line

option, but that didn't change anything.

Any hints?
