If you wish to loop over the inventory, or just a subset of it, there is multiple ways.
|
||||
One can use a regular ``with_items`` with the ``play_hosts`` or ``groups`` variables, like this::
|
||||
|
||||
# show all the hosts in the inventory
|
||||
- debug: msg={{ item }}
|
||||
with_items: "{{groups['all']}}"
|
||||
|
||||
# show all the hosts in the current play
|
||||
- debug: msg={{ item }}
|
||||
with_items: play_hosts
|
||||
|
||||
There is also a specific lookup plugin ``inventory_hostname`` that can be used like this::
|
||||
|
||||
# show all the hosts in the inventory
|
||||
- debug: msg={{ item }}
|
||||
with_inventory_hostname: all
|
||||
|
||||
# show all the hosts matching the pattern, ie all but the group www
|
||||
- debug: msg={{ item }}
|
||||
with_inventory_hostname: all:!www
|
||||
|
||||
