Hi Ansible Developers.

I want to know how to use “with_items:” loop in my own custom module ?

e.g.

`

tasks:

  • name: “Something custom action”
    my_first_mod:
    name: “{{ item }}”
    with_items:
  • ‘andres’
  • ‘lukas’

`

Any help in where I’ve gone wrong with this would be much appreciated.

Hi Shin,

Following tasks should work as expected, and shall loop over input list by one item each time. Just for reference:

Using with_items to loop over list:
tasks:

  • name: loop over items
    debug:
    msg: “{{ item }}”
    with_items:
  • item_1
  • item_2

Using Loop to loop over list:

tasks:

  • name: loop over items
    debug:
    msg: “{{ item }}”
    loop:
  • item_1
  • item_2

I want to know the issue/error you are facing when you are trying the same with your custom module.
