I have a playbook with vault, and I can run it through:
ansible-playbook info.yml --ask-vault-pass
Now, I want to run my playbook api in Ansible. The answer in How to run playbook api in Ansible v2 with vault said that we can set
loader = DataLoader()
loader.set_vault_password('mypass')
in 2.2.0.0 API, and I also set these in my api,but it doesn't work. The error message is as follows:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test2.py", line 63, in <module>
playbook.run()
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/executor/playbook_executor.py", line 82, in run
pb = Playbook.load(playbook_path, variable_manager=self._variable_manager, loader=self._loader)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/playbook/__init__.py", line 54, in load
pb._load_playbook_data(file_name=file_name, variable_manager=variable_manager)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/playbook/__init__.py", line 78, in _load_playbook_data
ds = self._loader.load_from_file(os.path.basename(file_name))
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/parsing/dataloader.py", line 130, in load_from_file
(b_file_data, show_content) = self._get_file_contents(file_name)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/parsing/dataloader.py", line 206, in _get_file_contents
data = self._vault.decrypt(data, filename=b_file_name)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/parsing/vault/__init__.py", line 561, in decrypt
plaintext, vault_id = self.decrypt_and_get_vault_id(vaulttext, filename=filename)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/parsing/vault/__init__.py", line 617, in decrypt_and_get_vault_id
_matches = match_secrets(self.secrets, vault_id_matchers)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/parsing/vault/__init__.py", line 456, in match_secrets
matches = [(vault_id, secret) for vault_id, secret in secrets if vault_id in target_vault_ids]
ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack
Then I change the
loader.set_vault_password('mypass')
to
loader.set_vault_secrets([('default','mypass')])
But it doesn't work either. The error message is:
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/parsing/vault/__init__.py", line 1344, in de
b_password = secret.bytes
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'bytes'
I try to change the line
b_password = secret.bytes
in file /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/parsing/vault/__init__.py
to
b_password = secret
then the api works normally. But I think it's not a good way to basically solve my problem.
