Ansible动态库存无法获取无所事事的主机

Question

Trying to invoke Ansible using dynamic inventory. Created a .py script to get vagrant box information and the output is .json. Below is the picture showing that

1. dynamic_inventory.py is executable
2. python dynamic_inventory.py --list returns the .json
3. invoking this thru ansible returns error

Ansible version 1.9.2

Answer 1

I guess there is no shebang line at the beginning of the script. Add one line this:

#!/usr/bin/env python

Ansible dynamic inventory script can be off any kind of executable script, not just Python. So Ansible doesn't run this with python dynamic_scripts.py , rather it uses shebang line to determine the script type. That's why you are getting the error even though the script is executable.
