`Ansible vault`_ allows to create encrypted variables to embed in yaml using the `ansible-vault encrypt_string`_ command.
+In the following example *myvariable* is the name of the variable and *acomplexpassword* the secret to encrypt (the content
+of the variable).
::
- $ ansible-vault encrypt_string -n mypassord acomplexpassword
+ $ ansible-vault encrypt_string -n myvariable acomplexpassword
New Vault password:
Confirm New Vault password:
- mypassord: !vault |
