Hi,

I would like to loop on items in an inventory group with the module Route53

I tried to methods but both failed, if you have any idea, it would be really appreciated 😃

Method 1:

> - route53:  
> command: create  
> overwrite: True  
> zone: “{{ slaves\_dns\_zone }}”  
> record: “{{ item | regex\_replace(‘/.’, ‘-’) }}.{{ slaves\_dns\_record }}”  
> type: PTR  
> ttl: 300  
> value: “{{ item }}”  
> with\_items: groups[‘slaves-private’]

> msg: unsupported parameter for module: with\_items

Method 2:

> - include: route53-unique-slave.yml item=item  
> with\_dict: groups[‘mesos-slaves’]

> ERROR: [DEPRECATED]: include + with\_items is a removed deprecated feature. Please update your playbooks.

Then, I’m a bit out if idea 🙂

Thank you in advance!

Never had to deal with Amazon stuff but here my 2 cents: your first method fails because of wrong indentation:

You need to outdent the with\_items clause, otherwise you state it is part of route53 arguments. Here a working example:

`

- name: important basic packages  
apt:  
name: “{{ item }}”  
state: present  
with\_items:
- strace
- screen
- less
- man-db
- wget

`

HTH,
