Pass sudo password while executing Ansible playbook

Question

I am trying to pass a sudo password while executing my playbook. How do I do that?

Answer 1

Hey @Bob, try something like this:

ansible-playbook playbook.yml -i inventory.ini --user=username \
                              --extra-vars "ansible_sudo_pass=yourPassword"

Here, you're passing your inventory file as well as an extra variable which holds your sudo password.
