I'm trying to execute the below playbook I wrote but it fails on some syntax errors.
I tried few things from the online doc but without sucess so far. The aim of these variable is to generate a random password to be used by the user module in a role.
- hosts: all
remote_user: root
become : no
vars:
salt: "{{ lookup('password', '/dev/null length=10' chars=ascii_letters) }}"
pasw: "{{ lookup('password', '/dev/null length=15') }}"
hash: "{{ pasw }} | password_hash('sha512', {{ salt }}) "
roles:
- ansiuser
the error from ansible-playbook execution (it fails at role execution so I guess my variables aren't doing what I'm looking for: generating strings)
TASK [ansiuser : Set the password fact for this host] ******************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [192.168.11.100]: FAILED! => {"msg": "An unhandled exception occurred while templating '{{ pasw }} | password_hash('sha512', {{ salt }}) '.
