Hi @MohamedKHALILRouissi! Thank you for opening this issue!

You're currently utilizing the AnsiblePlaybookExecute, which is a ready-to-go executor and doesn't offer much room for customization.

To disable stdout, I suggest using the DefaultExecute and utilizing the WithWrite method to set the writer as io.Discard.

playbookCmd := playbook.NewAnsiblePlaybookCmd(
  playbook.WithPlaybooks("site.yml"),
  playbook.WithPlaybookOptions(ansiblePlaybookOptions),
)

exec := execute.NewDefaultExecute(
  execute.WithCmd(playbookCmd),
  execute.WithErrorEnrich(playbook.NewAnsiblePlaybookErrorEnrich()),
  execute.WithWrite(io.Discard),
)

exec.Execute(context.TODO())

I hope it can help you!

is possible to catch each step output , let say that have i have single yaml playbook with 4 step , failed at step 3 create log for the failed creation ? ( without the stdout )

hi @MohamedKHALILRouissi! That won't be possible by configuring the writer, at least not straightforwardly, because the DefaultExecute's writer captures the entire command execution.

Did you explore the JSON stdout callback? It might help you customize how you control the output. However, one drawback of the JSON stdout callback is that you won't get the output until the execution is completed.

Here you have an example of how to enable the JSON stdout callback with go-ansible.
