How can I pass variable to ansible playbook in the command line?

Question

I\'m new to ansible and wonder how to do so as the following didn\'t work

ansible-playbook -i \'10.0.0.1,\' yada-yada.yml --tags \'loaddata\' django_fixtures=\"t         


        

Answer 1

ansible-playbook release.yml --extra-vars "username=hello password=bye"

#you can now use the above command anywhere in the playbook as an example below:
tasks:
- name: Create a new user in Linux
shell: useradd -m -p {{username}} {{password}}"
