ansible.builtin.advanced_host_list – Parses a ‘host list’ with ranges
Note
This inventory plugin is part of ansible-core
and included in all Ansible installations. In most cases, you can use the short plugin name advanced_host_list
even without specifying the collections:
keyword. However, we recommend you use the FQCN for easy linking to the plugin documentation and to avoid conflicting with other collections that may have the same inventory plugin name.
New in version 2.4: of ansible.builtin
Synopsis
- Parses a host list string as a comma separated values of hosts and supports host ranges.
- This plugin only applies to inventory sources that are not paths and contain at least one comma.
Examples
# simple range # ansible -i 'host[1:10],' -m ping # still supports w/o ranges also # ansible-playbook -i 'localhost,' play.yml
