jinja errors

[natxo....@gmail.com]

hi,

I want to conditionally import a yaml file if the minion has rhel7, and another one if the minion is rhel8.

This is what works without but no distinction between major os versions (so not what I want):

{%- from salt['pillar.get']('repository_file', tpldir ~ '/repositories_rhel7.jinja') import repositories %}

So the minion looks at the file and imports it and it works.

I want something like this:

{%- if grains['osmajorrelease'] == '7' %}
{%- from salt['pillar.get']('repository_file', tpldir ~ '/repositories_rhel7.jinja') import repositories %}
{%- elif grains['osmajorrelease'] == '8' %}
{%- from salt['pillar.get']('repository_file', tpldir ~ '/repositories_rhel8.jinja') import repositories %}
{%- endif %}

but then:

[ERROR   ] Rendering exception occurred
Traceback (most recent call last):

    output = template.render(**decoded_context)

  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/jinja2/sandbox.py", line 407, in getattr
    value = getattr(obj, attribute)
jinja2.exceptions.UndefinedError: 'repositories' is undefined

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/salt/utils/templates.py", line 261, in render_tmpl
    output = render_str(tmplstr, context, tmplpath)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/salt/utils/templates.py", line 509, in render_jinja_tmpl
    raise SaltRenderError("Jinja variable {}{}".format(exc, out), buf=tmplstr)
salt.exceptions.SaltRenderError: Jinja variable 'repositories' is undefined
[CRITICAL] Rendering SLS 'username:redhat.localyumrepo' failed: Jinja variable 'repositories' is undefined
local:
    Data failed to compile:
----------
    Rendering SLS 'dev_username:redhat.localyumrepo' failed: Jinja variable 'repositories' is undefined

What am I doing wrong? I understand the error, the variable is not defined, but why?

Thanks

because you are assuming strings when the returned value is int.
