Inclusion works fine with vars_files.
But not with tasks when a variable is used within a filename ?
var:
product: abc
vars_files:
- vars/${product}.yml
tasks:
- include: tasks/${product}.yml
When the playbook is run you get - though the file is there:
ERROR: file not found: tasks/${product}.yml

It’s called “vars”.
This is the problem. I will make me a ticket to make it yell when invalid keywords are found in the play or task.
Sorry, its a typo in this post...
in real it is vars: of course.
So in changing it to “vars” is the problem is still there?
Yes, problem still there.
In vars_files the $product is resolved,
in tasks - include: tasks/${product}.yml it is not..
(devel checkout from today)
Oh, task includes, that narrows it down nicely, I was thinking of vars_files.
I suspect you are the first to try this, it's just a missing template
call around the path. Pretty simple.
Please make sure there is a ticket in github.
