ANSIBLE_CALLBACK_FORMAT_PRETTY

Configure the result format to be more readable.

When result_format is set to yaml this option defaults to true, and defaults to false when configured to json.

Setting this option to true will force json and yaml results to always be pretty printed regardless of verbosity.

When set to true and used with the yaml result format, this option will modify module responses in an attempt to produce a more human friendly output at the expense of correctness, and should not be relied upon to aid in writing variable manipulations or conditionals. For correctness, set this option to false or set result_format to json.

Used by: ansible.builtin.sh shell plugin, ansible.posix.csh shell plugin, ansible.posix.fish shell plugin

ANSIBLE_VARS_PLUGIN_STAGE

Control when this vars plugin may be executed.

Setting this option to all will run the vars plugin after importing inventory and whenever it is demanded by a task.

Setting this option to task will only run the vars plugin whenever it is demanded by a task.

Setting this option to inventory will only run the vars plugin after parsing inventory.

If this option is omitted, the global RUN_VARS_PLUGINS configuration is used to determine when to execute the vars plugin.

Used by: ansible.builtin.host_group_vars vars plugin

ANSIBLE_VARS_SOPS_PLUGIN_CACHE

Whether to cache decrypted files or not.

If the cache is disabled, the files will be decrypted for almost every task. This is very slow!

Only disable caching if you modify the variable files during a playbook run and want the updated result to be available from the next task on.

Note that setting stage=inventory has the same effect as setting cache=true: the variables will be loaded only once (during inventory loading) and the vars plugin will not be called for every task.

ANSIBLE_VARS_SOPS_PLUGIN_HANDLE_UNENCRYPTED_FILES

How to handle files that match the extensions in valid_extensions that are not SOPS encrypted.

The default value error will produce an error.

The value skip will simply skip these files. This requires SOPS 3.9.0 or later.

The value warn will skip these files and emit a warning. This requires SOPS 3.9.0 or later.

Note that this will not help if the store SOPS uses cannot parse the file, for example because it is no valid JSON/YAML/… file despite its file extension. For extensions other than the default ones SOPS uses the binary store, which tries to parse the file as JSON.

ANSIBLE_VARS_SOPS_PLUGIN_STAGE

Control when this vars plugin may be executed.

Setting this option to all will run the vars plugin after importing inventory and whenever it is demanded by a task.

Setting this option to task will only run the vars plugin whenever it is demanded by a task.

Setting this option to inventory will only run the vars plugin after parsing inventory.

If this option is omitted, the global RUN_VARS_PLUGINS configuration is used to determine when to execute the vars plugin.

ANSIBLE_VARS_SOPS_PLUGIN_VALID_EXTENSIONS

Check all of these extensions when looking for ‘variable’ files.

These files must be SOPS encrypted YAML or JSON files.

By default the plugin will produce errors when encountering files matching these extensions that are not SOPS encrypted. This behavior can be controlled with the handle_unencrypted_files option.

certificate is TLS client certificate authentication. It can only be used with LDAPS or StartTLS. See certificate for more information on how to specify the client certificate used for authentication.

negotiate will attempt to negotiate Kerberos authentication with a fallback to NTLM. If Kerberos is available the Kerberos credential cache can be used if no username or password is specified.

ignore_hostname will validate the CA trust chain but will ignore any hostname checks performed by TLS.

See Certificate validation for more information.

This option can be set using a Jinja2 template value.

MICROSOFT_AD_LDAP_CERTIFICATE

The certificate or certificate with key bundle that is used for certificate authentication.

The value can either be a path to a file containing the certificate or string of the PEM encoded certificate.

If using a path to a certificate file, the file can be a PEM encoded certificate, a PEM encoded certificate and key bundle, a DER encoded certificate, or a PFX/PKCS12 encoded certificate and key bundle.

Use certificate_key if the certificate specified does not contain the key.

Use certificate_password if the key is encrypted with a password.

This option can be set using a Jinja2 template value.

MICROSOFT_AD_LDAP_CERTIFICATE_KEY

The certificate key that is used for certificate authentication.

The value can either be a path to a file containing the key in the PEM or DER encoded form, or it can be the string of a PEM encoded key.

MICROSOFT_AD_LDAP_ENCRYPT

Whether encryption is required for the connection.

Encryption can either be performed using the authentication protocol or through TLS.

The auth_protocol negotiate, kerberos, and ntlm all support encryption over LDAP whereas simple does not.

If using auth_protocol=simple over LDAP without TLS then this must be set to False. As no encryption is used, all traffic will be in plaintext and should be avoided.

This option can be set using a Jinja2 template value.

MICROSOFT_AD_LDAP_PASSWORD

The password to authenticate with.

If auth_protocol is simple and no password is specified, the bind will be performed as an unauthenticated bind.

If auth_protocol is negotiate, kerberos, or ntlm and no password is specified, it will attempt to use the local cached credential specified by username if available.

This option can be set using a Jinja2 template value.

MICROSOFT_AD_LDAP_PORT

If not specified the server will be derived from the current krb5.conf default_realm setting and with an SRV DNS lookup.

See Server lookup for more information.

This option can be set using a Jinja2 template value.

MICROSOFT_AD_LDAP_TLS_MODE

The TLS operation to use.

If an explicit port is set to 636 then this defaults to ldaps.

ldaps will connect over LDAPS (port 636).

start_tls will connect over LDAP (port 389) and perform the StartTLS operation before the authentication bind.

It is recommended to use ldaps over start_tls if TLS is going to be used.

This option can be set using a Jinja2 template value.

MICROSOFT_AD_LDAP_USERNAME

The username to authenticate with.

If auth_protocol is simple and no username is specified, anonymous authentication is used.

If auth_protocol is negotiate, kerberos, or ntlm and no username is specified, it will attempt to use the local cached credential if available, for example one retrieved by kinit.

This option can be set using a Jinja2 template value.
