In term of using variable in hosts attribute (line 58)
ORIG:

hosts: $groups -- apply to all hosts specified in the variable $groups

REVISE:
hosts : group # No $

$ ansible-playbook playbook1.yml -e "group=myservers"
or
$ ansible-playbook playbook1.yml --extra-vars="target=myservers"

which editor u use for yaml?

claudiols1979 commented Mar 14, 2017

@antoniopinarella you can use any text editor. I use vim for .yml and it works fine.
(Probably you found it out. However for new people searches. )

flamein commented Mar 9, 2018

Can we please bury this Gist? it keeps showing up as clickbait in search engines while the syntax is horribly outdated.

dataf3l commented Sep 25, 2019

I love this, please include "become"
