Howdy folks,
I’m looking for some advice to see if there’s a more elegant way to
do an “include_vars” on the output of a filter rather than a file.
I’m using the “passwordstore” module to get secrets out of ‘pass’.
This works great for pulling in a single var at a time, but I’d like
to be able to import an entire host/group vars file.
Currently what I’ve got working is something like:
- create a temporary local file with contents of the lookup(‘passwordstore’)
filter output using local_action - include_vars on the temp file
- delete temp file with another local_action
I was just wondering if anyone’s got an easier way to do this or a one-liner
that can merge the output of lookup(‘passwordstore’) into ansible’s vars table.
Also, I know about Vault, but can’t use it in this case.
Thanks,
Kelley Spoon
