Hi all,
I created my own action plugin, I based it of set_fact.
It works when the fact is not set already, otherwise it does not.
To be sure I did not do any mistake (cause I could not find one in my code)
I copied the whole set_fact code and called the file set_fact2.py
In the library of my ansible project the module info: library/set_fact2.py, and the action plugin into the
action_plugins/set_fact2.py
So my question: Why does the copy set_fact2 not overwrite value test? But original set_fact does? (again it is the same code, without any changes from my side)
Is there some setting for this somewhere else?
My ansible-playbook looks like
`
-
set_fact:
test: 1 -
set_fact2:
test: 2 -
debug:
var: test -
set_fact:
test: 3 -
debug:
var: test
`
This is what happens:
TASK [set_fact] ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
“ansible_facts”: {
“test”: 1
},
“changed”: false
}TASK [set_fact2] *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
“ansible_facts”: {
“test”: 2
},
“changed”: false
}TASK [debug] ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
“test”: 1
}TASK [set_fact] ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
“ansible_facts”: {
“test”: 3
},
“changed”: false
}TASK [debug] ***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
“test”: 3
}
Thanks for any help.
Kind Regards
Christian
