I am using Ansible and created a Playbook for deployment. I defined log_path in ansible.cfg and now tasks output are going to this log file. I want to send only few task's log into this log file. How can I achieve this ?
One option is to use no_log: True attribute but this is not displaying the logs on console.
So my requirement is to display all task's logs in console but I want to send only few task's log to my log file.
It's in the wish list, I think. Quoting from the doc log_plays - write playbook output to log file
* This callback writes playbook output to a file per host in the /var/log/ansible/hosts directory
* TODO: make this configurable
IMHO required functionality is not available at the moment. Take a look at the available plugins. "You can only have one plugin".
ansible-doc -t callback -l
There is an option to customize a callback. context_demo looks promising.
