Hi,

I’m use inventory files with Ansible as:  
inventory/fileinventory.yml

As example:  
myansible:  
hosts:  
host1:  
ansible\_host: x.y.z.t  
ansible\_port: …  
myinventoryvar: xyz  
etc…

But I ask if exist a form to pass one inventory text without grab the file and then pass  
-i INVENTORY, --inventory INVENTORY, --inventory-file INVENTORY  
specify inventory host path or comma separated host list. --inventory-file is deprecated

I can pass hosts as separated host list, but howto pass all data for a one host as like the example?

Regards,
