Ansible® Python Interpreter

When implementing playbooks for your operators and using the delegate_to key, you may encounter the following error (or something similar) stating that the path to your python executable is invalid:

FAILED! => {
    "changed": false,
    "module_stderr": "/bin/sh: PATH_TO_PYTHON: No such file or directory\n",
    "module_stdout": "",
    "msg": "The module failed to execute correctly, you probably need to set the interpreter...",
    "rc": 127
}

If you are experiencing this issue, supply the ansible_python_interpreter variable in the vars section of your playbook, or at the task level if necessary:

vars:
  ansible_python_interpreter: PATH_TO_PYTHON

where PATH_TO_PYTHON is the path to your python executable, i.e. /usr/bin/python3.

SSL Certificates

If you experience issues with urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED], or similar issues, you may need to install and use SSL Certificates before running this extension.

To install SSL Certificates in Python, you can install the certifi package via pip:

pip install certifi

Alternatively, you can navigate to your python folder and run the Certificates command from your terminal:

cd <PATH_TO_PYTHON>
./Install\ Certificates.command
