I assumed that the issue was on nxos_acls. 21:37:47 hey there, 21:38:58 I'm encountering an issue with the new cli parser module and the pyats parser on OS X Catalina. It seems that whenever it goes to execute it hits a thread issue and fails (python crashes). I've tried everything in a venv with python 3.8 and ansible 2.10 21:39:45 Has anyone seen this before or have they gotten the pyats parser to function? I'm curious if I need both the pyats and genie pre-requisites or just one of them. Thanks in advanced 21:57:32 GomathiselviS: is there a documentation that lists the extra functions each module supports? for example, it appears you can feed "loop" to all of them, but I cant see where that is documented, and not sure where I even came across that 21:57:44 curious if there are other options/methods I can use 22:14:17 Just found the requirements: Pyats requires pyats and genie and requires Python 3. AFAIK I'm meeting these requirements. I might open a github ticket just in case. Thanks 23:51:13 i was able to solve my problem earlier by refactoring my flat file with cidrs into a json dict and then calling with_dict from the module 01:33:39 anyone using nxos to configure a range of interfaces? doesnt appear any of the interface modules natively support ranges. this is what I am doing, curious if anyone has better way. that list 'nxos_93180_int_total' contains all interface IDs to configure (Ethernet1/1, Ethernet1/2, etc) 01:33:40 cisco.nxos.nxos_config: 01:33:40 lines: 01:33:40 - no lldp transmit 01:33:40 - no lldp receive 01:33:40 parents: interface {{ item }} 01:33:41 loop: "{{ nxos_93180_int_total }}" 01:34:22 it works, but since its iterating through a list of 52 interfaces, it adds quite a bit to runtime of the playbook 01:35:41 would be much quicker to make use of the native macro on the device. e.g, interface ethernet1/1 - 52 07:18:24 #endmeeting
