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.
