ansibleansible-ad-hoc

Can we run multiple modules in ansible using single ad-hoc command?

I know it's possible to run multiple adhoc commands one after the other for each module and using playbook.

Playbook:

- hosts: webservers
  tasks:
   - name: create .ssh dir
     file: path ~/.ssh state=directory
   - name: copy pub key
     copy: src:~/.ssh/id.rsa_pub dest=~/.ssh/authorized_keys

I want the above to execute using adhoc in one line. Is it possible to do so?

Solution

  • No, it is not possible.

    ansible command accepts only one set of arguments for a single module and its parameters.

    -m MODULE_NAME, --module-name=MODULE_NAME
    module name to execute (default=command)
