I am trying to test the filter result using the ansible command in ad-hoc mode for ec2_vpc_subnet_facts module. I can’t seem to get the “filters” parameter to work in the ad-hoc mode somehow. It keeps giving me back key value error or “unable to evaluate dictionary for filters” kind of error no matter how I put those things together.
Here’s is how my command looks like:
ansible localhost -i ./local -m ec2_vpc_subnet_facts -a “profile=my-profile region=us-east-1 filters=”{ ‘vpc-id’: vpc-xxxxx }" -vvvv
And here’s the error message:
localhost | FAILED >> {
“failed”: true,
“msg”: “this module requires key=value arguments ([‘filters={’, ‘vpc-id:’, ‘vpc-xxxxx’, ‘}’])”
}
I have played with many different formatting but I just can’t get it to work.
