How to access the playbook execution log file at run time?

[Luiz Gustavo]

Hey guys,

How to access the playbook execution log file at run time? I would need to email it after running the playbook.

For example, a simple playbook:

---
- hosts: localhost
  tasks:
  - name: "display message"
    debug:
      msg: "Hello"

I would need to email the execution output:

PLAY [localhost] *********************************************************************************************************************************************

TASK [Gathering Facts] ***************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost]

TASK [display message] ***************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
    "msg": "Hello"
}

PLAY RECAP ***************************************************************************************************************************************************
localhost                  : ok=2    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=0    skipped=0    rescued=0    ignored=0   

PS.:

I cannot set the ANSIBLE_LOG_PATH environment variable before executing the playbook because the execution will be done through AWX and not through the command line.

If you're running Job Templates in AWX you might want to look into Notification Templates (https://ansible.readthedocs.io/projects/awx/en/latest/userguide/notifications.html), and specifically Email (https://ansible.readthedocs.io/projects/awx/en/latest/userguide/notifications.html#email)

You could also look into callback plugins (https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/plugins/callback.html#example-callback-plugins)
