Launching multiple ec2 instances in different AZs playbook issue.

[linuxbsdfreak]

Hi,

I have the following Playbook for launching ec2 instances in different AZs

--- 
- hosts: localhost 
  connection: local 
  gather_facts: False
  vars_files:
     - ebs-aws/external_vars.yml
  tasks: 
    - name: EC2 basic provisioning 
      ec2:
        region: "us-east-1"
        key_name: mykey
        aws_access_key: "{{ ec2_access_key }}"
        aws_secret_key: "{{ ec2_secret_key }}"
        instance_type: m3.2xlarge
        image: ami-c21439aa
        wait: yes   
        group: mygrp
        instance_tags:
           Name: low_zoom_1_1_0
        count: "{{ item.count }}"
        count_tag:
           Name: low_zoom_1_1_0
        user_data: |
           #!/bin/bash
           /bin/sed '56d' -i /etc/sudoers
        zone: "{{ item.zone }}"
      with_items:
           - "{{ ec2_hosts }}"
      register: ec2

    - debug: var=ec2

    - name: Add instances to host group
      add_host: name={{ item.public_ip }} groupname=low_zoom
      with_items: ec2.result.instances

    - name: Wait for SSH to come up
      wait_for: host={{item.public_dns_name }} port=22 delay=60 timeout=320 state=started
      with_items: ec2.result.instances

    - name: Print out instance id
      debug: msg="{{ item.id }}"
      with_items: ec2.result.instances

ebs-aws/external_vars.yml
ec2_hosts:
  - zone: us-east-1a
    count: 1
  - zone: us-east-1c
    count: 1

Instances are launched correctly but i get the following when adding instances to the host group

TASK [Add instances to host group] *********************************************
[DEPRECATION WARNING]: Skipping task due to undefined attribute, in the future this will be a fatal error.. This feature will be removed in a future release. Deprecation warnings can be disabled by setting
deprecation_warnings=False in ansible.cfg.
skipping: [127.0.0.1] => {"changed": false, "results": [], "skipped": true, "skipped_reason": "No items in the list"}

Following is the data structure on the debug: var=ec2

What am i doing wrong.

Shouldn't that be ec2.results.instances instead of ec2.result.instances ?
