Jinja2 Notation with Loops

[nuarhu]

Hi there,

this is a bit like #4 but it has been closed and the notation is using pipes so I'm creating a new issue for it. Rather then a fix I would be just fine to know if:

• the file extension should be .j2 or .y(a)ml
• which plugin should the file extension be assigned to (I have it assigned to YAML/Ansible but the other issue mentioned SnakeYAML, so I could it assign to that, as well - though the file contains Jinja2 notation)
• should I change something about the syntax to make it work better with the YAML/Ansible plugin? I would also be fine with that.

Current syntax which just makes everything after it go completely red and breaks all validation:

        url:
{% for host in groups['xxx'] %}
            - "http://{{ hostvars[host].do_private_ip_address }}:{{ port }}/"
{% endfor %}

Thanks for your work!

• Ansible/YAML has basic support for Jinja {{ vars }} and basic support for YAML (no fancy stuff).
• SnakeYAML has no Jinja and close-to-full support for YAML.
• Before I die I might create YAML+Jinja2 version. But I'm still healthy and use workaround with YAML comments like that:

        url:
# This makes it YAML comment but Jinja still executed {% for host in groups['xxx'] %}
            - "http://{{ hostvars[host].do_private_ip_address }}:{{ port }}/"
# {% endfor %}
