creating ec2 key and save the result to a file

[Tzach Livyatan]

I'm trying to use ec2_key module, creating a new key and save it to a file for future use.

The first succeed, but I have problem saving to a .pem file:

Look like *ec2_key.private_key*  is not returned, but *ec2_key.fingerprint* is.

Any idea why?  

Thanks

Tzach,

change ec2_key.private_key into ec2_key.key.private_key, here is a working example of this one for your reference. By the way, I am using Ansible 2.0.1.0

   - name: Create an EC2 key
     ec2_key:
       name: "mykey"
       region: "eu-west-1"
     register: ec2_key


   - name: save private key
     copy:
       content: "{{ ec2_key.key.private_key }}"
       dest: "./aws-private.pem"
       mode: 0600
     when: ec2_key.changed

Hope this will help you.

I'm using Ansible 1.9.5

Maybe that the issue

 

   - name: Create an EC2 key
     ec2_key:
       name: "mykey"
       region: "eu-west-1"
     register: ec2_key


   - name: save private key
     copy:
       content: "{{ ec2_key.key.private_key }}"
       dest: "./aws-private.pem"
       mode: 0600
     when: ec2_key.changed

Hope this will help you.
