Ansible - read inventory hosts and variables to group_vars/all file

Question

I have a dummy doubt that keeps me stuck for a long time. I have a very banal inventory file with hosts and variables:

[lb]
10.112.84.122

[tomcat]
10.112.84         


        

Answer 1

Considering your previous example:

inventory file:

[db]
10.112.83.37

group_vars/all

data_base_url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@{{ db }}:1521/ssdenwdb

template file:

oracle_url = {{ data_base_url }}

You might want to replace your group_vars/all with

data_base_url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@{{ groups['db'][0] }}:1521/ssdenwdb"
