Module Defaults Configuration
*****************************
Ansible 2.7 adds a preview-status feature to group together modules that share common sets of parameters. This makes
it easier to author playbooks making heavy use of API-based modules such as cloud modules. By default Ansible ships
with groups for AWS and GCP modules that share parameters.
In a playbook, you can set module defaults for whole groups of modules, such as setting a common AWS region.
.. code-block:: YAML
# example_play.yml
- hosts: localhost
module_defaults:
group/aws:
region: us-west-2
tasks:
- aws_s3_bucket_facts:
# now the region is shared between both facts modules
- ec2_ami_facts:
