How to loop through blockinfile?

[Joanna Delaporte]

I have the following task, which appears to execute successfully, but I end up with only one block (the last), while I actually want to have a block for each item entered into my file. How do I do that?

task:

  - name: configure dns zone SRV records

    delegate_to: 127.0.0.1

    blockinfile:

      dest: /home/ansible/env/playbooks/vars/bind.yml

      state: present

      backup: yes

      insertafter: '^bind_zone_services:.*'

      marker: "# {mark} ANSIBLE MANAGED SRV BLOCK"

      block: |

             - name: "{{ item.name }}"

               weight: 100

               port: "{{ item.port }}"

               target: "{{ ansible_hostname }}"

    with_items:

      - { name: _ldap._tcp, port: 389 }

      - { name: _kerberos._tcp, port: 88 }

      - { name: _kerberos._udp, port: 88 }

      - { name: _kerberos-master._tcp, port: 88 }

      - { name: _kerberos-master._udp, port: 88 }

      - { name: _kpasswd._tcp, port: 464 }

      - { name: _kpasswd._udp, port: 464 }

      - { name: _ntp._udp, port: 123 }

 

Result

  - name: _ntp._udp

    weight: 100

    port: 123

    target: hostname
