We want it to show error rather than silently using an empty value.

Is it possible?

Thanks

I cannot find any doc related to this “error_on_undefined_vars” in official site, is it released?

Also, where to put? I tried ~/.ansible.cfg but not working…

Thanks.

It’s in the default examples/ansible.cfg (see checkout) that is packaged as /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg in most package distributions of Ansible.

This feature is also available only in 1.3 (currently under development) and later, and will be default on very soon in 1.3.
