Getting error when trying to run python script using ansible

Question

- name: Create directory for python files
  file: path=/home/vuser/test/
    state=directory
    owner={{ user }}
    group={{ user }}
    mode=755

- name: Copy python file over
  copy:
    src=sample.py
    dest=/home/vuser/test/sample.py
    owner={{ user }}
    group={{ user }}
    mode=777

- name: Execute script
  command: python sample.py
  args:
  chdir: /home/vuser/test/
  ignore_errors: yes

error fatal: [n]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "cmd": ["python", "sample.py"], "delta": "0:00:00.003200", "end": "2019-07-18 13:57:40.213252", "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 1, "start": "2019-07-18 13:57:40.221132", "stderr": "", "stderr_lines": [], "stdout": "1", "stdout_lines": ["1"]}

not able to figure out, help would be appreciated

Answer 1

Change the indent like below and remove ignore_errors.

- name: Execute script
  command: python sample.py
  args:
     chdir: /home/vuser/test/
  register: cat_contents

- name: Print contents
  debug:
     msg: "{{ cat_contents.stdout }}"
