Enabling display.debug when using molecule?

Get Help
1

How do I get the display.debug() output when I am running molecule tests?

I thought

$ molecule converge – -vvvv

Or

ANSIBLE_DEBUG=True molecule converge – -vvvv

Neither seem to work.

I set the MOLECULE_VERBOSITY env var to a number to match the number of -v’s one would use with ansible-playbook for verbose output.

The display.debug() inside the ansible-core python code. For example in ansible/plugin/action/__init__.py:__low_level_execute_command() there is


display.debug("_low_level_execute_command(): starting")

I have tried

display = Display(verbosity=2)

and

export ANSIBLE_DEBUG=1

And running with -vvv and -vvvv and put C.LOG_VERBOSITY = 2 into the module, editing ansible/utils/display.py:Display() hard coding in the verbosity

    def __init__(self, verbosity: int = 3) -> None:

None of it has worked.

Have you tried setting the MOLECULE_VERBOSITY environmental variable to a number that matches the number of v’s you would use with ansible-playbook, for example:

export MOLECULE_VERBOSITY=3

It doesn’t appear to be very well documented, but this is the way to do it AFAIK:

But perhaps I have failed to understand your question?
