[英]Compare two files with Ansible
I am struggling to find out how to compare two files.我正在努力找出如何比较两个文件。 Tried several methods including this one which errors out with:尝试了几种方法,包括这个错误的方法:
FAILED!失败的! => {"msg": "The module diff was not found in configured module paths. Additionally, core modules are missing. If this is a checkout, run 'git pull --rebase' to correct this problem."} => {"msg": "在配置的模块路径中找不到模块差异。此外,缺少核心模块。如果这是结帐,请运行 'git pull --rebase' 以更正此问题。"}
Is this the best practice to compare two files and ensure the contents are the same or is there a better way?这是比较两个文件并确保内容相同的最佳做法还是有更好的方法?
Thanks in advance.提前致谢。
My playbook:我的剧本:
- name: Find out if cluster management protocol is in use
ios_command:
commands:
- show running-config | include ^line vty|transport input
register: showcmpstatus
- local_action: copy content="{{ showcmpstatus.stdout_lines[0] }}" dest=/poc/files/{{ inventory_hostname }}.result
- local_action: diff /poc/files/{{ inventory_hostname }}.result /poc/files/transport.results
failed_when: "diff.rc > 1"
register: diff
- name: debug output
debug: msg="{{ diff.stdout }}"
Why not using stat
to compare the two files?为什么不使用stat
来比较两个文件? Just a simple example:只是一个简单的例子:
- name: Get cksum of my First file
stat:
path : "/poc/files/{{ inventory_hostname }}.result"
register: myfirstfile
- name: Current SHA1
set_fact:
mf1sha1: "{{ myfirstfile.stat.checksum }}"
- name: Get cksum of my Second File (If needed you can jump this)
stat:
path : "/poc/files/transport.results"
register: mysecondfile
- name: Current SHA1
set_fact:
mf2sha1: "{{ mysecondfile.stat.checksum }}"
- name: Compilation Changed
debug:
msg: "File Compare"
failed_when: mf2sha1 != mf1sha1
your "diff" task is missing the shell
keyword, Ansible thinks you want to use the diff
module instead.您的“diff”任务缺少shell
关键字,Ansible 认为您想改用diff
模块。
also i think diff
(as name of the variable to register the tasks result) leads ansible to confusion, change to diff_result
or something.我还认为diff
(作为注册任务结果的变量名称)会导致混淆,更改为diff_result
或其他什么。
code (example):代码(示例):
tasks:
- local_action: shell diff /etc/hosts /etc/fstab
failed_when: "diff_output.rc > 1"
register: diff_output
- debug:
var: diff_output
hope it helps希望能帮助到你
A slightly shortened version of 'imjoseangel' answer which avoids setting facts: 'imjoseangel' 答案的略微缩短版本,可避免设定事实:
vars:
file_1: cats.txt
file_2: dogs.txt
tasks:
- name: register the first file
stat:
path: "{{ file_1 }}"
checksum: sha1
get_checksum: yes
register: file_1_checksum
- name: register the second file
stat:
path: "{{ file_2 }}"
checksum: sha1
get_checksum: yes
register: file_2_checksum
- name: Check if the files are the same
debug: msg="The {{ file_1 }} and {{ file_2 }} are identical"
failed_when: file_1_checksum.stat.checksum != file_2_checksum.stat.checksum
ignore_errors: true
