Gets information about an AWS CloudFormation stack
This module was called C(cloudformation_facts) before Ansible 2.9, returning C(ansible_facts). Note that the M(cloudformation_info) module no longer returns C(ansible_facts)!
# Note: These examples do not set authentication details, see the AWS Guide for details.
# Get summary information about a stack
- cloudformation_info:
stack_name: my-cloudformation-stack
register: output
- debug:
msg: "{{ output['cloudformation']['my-cloudformation-stack'] }}"
# When the module is called as cloudformation_facts, return values are published
# in ansible_facts['cloudformation'][<stack_name>] and can be used as follows.
# Note that this is deprecated and will stop working in Ansible 2.13.
- cloudformation_facts:
stack_name: my-cloudformation-stack
- debug:
msg: "{{ ansible_facts['cloudformation']['my-cloudformation-stack'] }}"
# Get stack outputs, when you have the stack name available as a fact
- set_fact:
stack_name: my-awesome-stack
- cloudformation_info:
stack_name: "{{ stack_name }}"
register: my_stack
- debug:
msg: "{{ my_stack.cloudformation[stack_name].stack_outputs }}"
