Hi
I am currently using the ec2_customer_gateway module, and the variable names it returns are inconsistent, if a gateway exists its plural if not then singular. The problem is I call out this variable later in my code.
CGW doesn’t exist.
“gateway”: {
“customer_gateway”: {
“bgp_asn”: “65248”,
“customer_gateway_id”: “cgw-8c03da92”,
CGW already exists.
“gateway”: {
“customer_gateways”: [
{
“bgp_asn”: “12345”,
“customer_gateway_id”: “cgw-8c03da92”,
Later in my code I reference the customer_gateway[s] list which could either be customer_gateways or customer_gateway, this appears to be a bug in the boto code or aws api but the only way I can think of getting around this is by creating a dummy CGW prior to the real creation and then taking the dummy CGW down after creation. Anyone have a creative way to get around this problem?
- name: create vpn connection
ec2_vpc_vpn_connection:
aws_access_key: “{{ assumed_role.sts_creds.access_key }}”
aws_secret_key: “{{ assumed_role.sts_creds.secret_key }}”
security_token: “{{ assumed_role.sts_creds.session_token }}”
name: “VPN {{ vpcname }} {{ item.gateway.customer_gateways[0].customer_gateway_id }}”
type: ipsec.1
region: “{{ region }}”
# customer_gateway_id: “{{ item.gateway.customer_gateways[0].customer_gateway_id }}”
vpn_gateway_id: “{{ vgw.vgw.id }}”
static_routes_only: False
wait: False
wait_timeout: 300
register: vpn
with_items:
“{{ cgw.results }}”
Thanks
