DevOps Asked by Roy on August 22, 2021
I have a variable named packages as showed below, it is not a plain list, I have some nested dict in it like browsers.
---
packages:
- apt-file
- axel
- ibus-rime
- rofi
- i3
- ffmpeg
- xclip
- cargo
- httpie
- ttf-ubuntu-font-family
- tldr-py
- glances
- browsers:
- brave-browser
- chromium
- editors:
- emacs
I’d like to use instructions like below
- name: Install a list of packages
become: yes
apt:
name: "{{ packages }}"
to install all the pacakges defined in the variable, but I do not know what filter I should use the convert the variable to plain list, I need the items in the nested dictionary.
any help will be appreciated.
I probably should use comment instead group the value in a dict who's value is a list
like
packages:
- apt-file
- axel
- ibus-rime
- rofi
- i3
- ffmpeg
- xclip
- cargo
- httpie
- ttf-ubuntu-font-family
- tldr-py
- glances
# browsers:
- brave-browser
- chromium
# editors
- emacs
