Gives a fixed answer to ansible prompt

  • 772

Ansible, when driven by a user with MFA, needs to give the verification code asked by sshd from the target host. I can type it in, but when a playbooks runs for many hosts, I would need to type as many times as my hosts.

I am looking for something like:

yes 101010 | ansible-playbooks playbook.yaml

where 101010 is the verification code (which is the same for all the hosts).

bash ansible

  1. The commands can handle variable arguments with the -e switch.

    By example : 

    ansible [...] -e verif=101010

    The variable verif will be accessible in ansible code
