ANSIBLE.SET_FACT(3)

NAME
set_fact - Set host facts from a task

DESCRIPTION

This module allows setting new variables. Variables are set on a host-by-host basis just like facts discovered by the setup module.

These variables will survive between plays.

OPTIONS

key_value
    The set_fact module takes key=value pairs as variables to set in the playbook scope. Or alternatively, accepts complex arguments using the args: statement.(required).

EXAMPLES
# Example setting host facts using key=value pairs
- set_fact: one_fact="something" other_fact="{{ local_var * 2 }}"
# Example setting host facts using complex arguments
- set_fact:
     one_fact: something
     other_fact: "{{ local_var * 2 }}"
