Hello,
I am looking for a way to leverage Ansible Prompts directives to include choice lists, or even just to include a dynamic prompt based on the results of a url lookup.
This didn’t work:
- hosts: all
vars:
directions: “North, South, East West”
vars_prompt:
- name: “choice”
prompt: “Pick a direction: {{ directions }}”
tasks:
- debug: msg=" directions = {{ directions }} choice = {{ choice }}"
The prompt doesn’t replace the directions variable.
And this doesn’t seem to work either:
- hosts: all
vars:
dir: “{{ lookup(‘pipe’, ‘./getDirFromUser.sh’) }}”
tasks:
- debug: msg=" dir = {{ dir}} "
where the getDirFromuser.sh script would prompt for the direction.
Any thoughts on how I might be able to accomplish this?
