Random Seed Error was a <class 'ansible.errors.AnsibleError'>, original message: Unexpected templating type error occurred / The only supported seed types are: None, int, float, str, bytes, and bytearray

[tabacha]

Summary

When I use a radom filter with seed in a variable I get an error. Looks like it was there before in #3769

Issue Type

• Bug Report

OS / ENVIRONMENT

ansible-lint --version
ansible-lint 24.7.0 using ansible-core:2.16.10 ansible-compat:24.8.0 ruamel-yaml:0.18.6 ruamel-yaml-clib:0.2.8

• ansible installation method: pip
• ansible-lint installation method: pip

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Following Playbook:

- name: Test
  gather_facts: false
  hosts:
    - localhost
  tasks:
    - name: Test1 is okay
      ansible.builtin.debug:
        msg: "{{ 12 | random(seed=inventory_hostname) }}"

    - name: Test2 is wrong
      ansible.builtin.debug:
        msg: "{{ cron_hour_raw }}"
      vars:
        cron_hour_raw: "{{ 12 | random(seed=inventory_hostname) }}"

Desired Behavior

Ansible lint should not find an error at all.

Actual Behavior

Ansible lint should not find an error at the second task

Please give some details of what is happening. Include a [minimum complete
verifiable example] with:

• minimized playbook to reproduce the error
• the output of running ansible-lint including the command line used
• if you're getting a stack trace, also the output of
  ansible-playbook --syntax-check playbook

[cavcrosby]

I believe this can occur due to some unexpected exception mangling when invoking the template function from src/ansiblelint/rules/jinja.py. Working on a patch; I will make a PR soon for this.
