nodejs package requires key/value arguments?

I’m trying to install nodejs using:

  • name: install node
    apt: pkg={{item}} state=pre sent
    with_items:
  • nodejs
  • nodejs-legacy
  • npm

I’m getting this error:

failed: [host1] => (item=nodejs,nodejs-legacy,npm) => {“failed”: true, “item”: “nodejs,nodejs-legacy,npm”}

msg: this module requires key=value arguments ([‘pkg=nodejs,nodejs-legacy,npm’, ‘state=pre’, ‘sent’])

FATAL: all hosts have already failed – aborting

This used to work for me maybe 3-4 months ago, first time I am using ansible since and I am getting this error.

Ideas?

Did you notice there is a space in the word ‘pre sent’?
