As i work with (or I try to learn ) sometimes i want to test little snippets (Used in templates/when conditions / others within ). You can (or your fav repl ) and do it or you can use (and contribute) to this little tool i built yesterday. Ansible Ansible j2 Ansible ipython manually I’ve called (lack of a better name) , and it basically evals strings into j2.template and renders it , nothing major, but with a few neat features. jinrepl Featuring: https://github.com/bechampion/jinrepl To install: pip install termcolorpip install jinja2git clone cd jinreplpython jinrepl.py https://github.com/bechampion/jinrepl That’s pretty much everything you need so far (with the current set of features) Features In line jinja rendering Filter autocompletion Conditional and statements autocomplete But my favourite is , embedded Vim! (haha just os.system(“vim”)) It does a fair bit more , but you can find all about it on the github repo. https://github.com/bechampion/jinrepl
