Thanks in advance
Read the csv file with the module read_csv and use the filter groupby. For example the playbook and the template below
shell> cat playbook.yml
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- read_csv:
path: ansi.csv
register: data
- template:
src: template.j2
dest: playbook.yml
shell> cat template.j2
---
{% for host in data.list|groupby('aaa') %}
- name: 'make directory'
hosts: {{ host.0 }}
become: yes
tasks:
{% for task in host.1 %}
- name: {{ task.bbb }}
file:
path: {{ task.bbb }}
state: {{ task.ccc }}
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
give
shell> cat playbook.yml
---
- name: 'make directory'
hosts: aa01
become: yes
tasks:
- name: ansi
file:
path: ansi
state: directory
- name: play
file:
path: play
state: direvtory
- name: 'make directory'
hosts: aa02
become: yes
tasks:
- name: jinj
file:
path: jinj
state: directory
- name: tem
file:
path: ten
state: directory
