verbose for debugging

[ji-podhead]

Is there a way to debug the lookup of community.hashi_vaul? For instance, can we enable verbose output or similar features to better understand any issues during execution?

Hello @ji-podhead , while we appreciate constructive feedback, let me remind you there is an Ansible Code of Conduct for those participating in the community and we would also appreciate if you respect it. Please edit your issue to adhere to these policies.

@ji-podhead possibilities for debugging and getting output are sometimes limited by what ansible itself can do, since as a plugin we must adhere to the API given. To answer more specifically, I'll need to understand what your issue is: which plugin, your invocation, your error message(s), etc., possibly your ansible and/or Vault configuration as well. Please provide more information about what you're trying to do and where you're running into issues.

i just want to get the result of the vault api call

[briantist]

It sounds like you want the raw return value that's available on some of the plugins and modules: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/hashi_vault/vault_kv2_get_module.html#return-raw

Alternatively you can use the generics (vault_read, vault_write) which only return the raw API result.

ah cool, i guess i should use the right verbosity level when having trouble with plugins
