Combine Ansible async with retries - loops

Question

Ok, now I have a really tricky case with Ansible.
I need to run my task asynchronously with retries (i.e. with until loop) and then fail task if timeout exceeds. So both two parameters must control my play: retries count (play fails if retry count exceeded) and timeout (play fails if timeout exceeded).
I can implement each strategy separately:
- name: My shell task with retries
shell: set -o pipefail && ./myscript.sh 2>&1 | tee -a "{{mylogfile}}"
args:
chdir: "{{myscript_dir}}/"
executable: /bin/bash
register: my_job
until: my_job is succeeded
retries: "{{test_retries}}"
delay: 0
or with async:
- name: My async shell task
shell: set -o pipefail && ./myscript.sh 2>&1 | tee -a "{{mylogfile}}"
args:
chdir: "{{myscript_dir}}/"
executable: /bin/bash
register: my_job
async: "{{test_timeout}}"
poll: 0
- name: Tracking for async shell task
wait_for:
path: "{{mylogfile}}"
search_regex: '^.*Done in \S+'
timeout: "{{test_timeout}}"
ignore_errors: yes
register: result
The second task parses previous task log until the job is finished - i.e. searches "Done in x seconds" string. Maybe it's not the best practice and I should use async_status but can't find how to set timeout with it (it's only have retries for checking job status which is pretty silly for me).
Sooo... Can I combine both strategies to control my task both with retries count and timeout?
UPD: I tried to run both until and async for shell module and surprisingly my play doesn't fail but retries doesn't work. The task was just started as fire-and-forget task and executed only one time without retries. So this is not an option.
- name: My shell task with retries and async
shell: set -o pipefail && ./myscript.sh 2>&1 | tee -a "{{mylogfile}}"
args:
chdir: "{{myscript_dir}}/"
executable: /bin/bash
register: my_job
until: my_job is succeeded
retries: "{{test_retries}}"
delay: 0
async: "{{test_timeout}}"
poll: 0
- name: My async shell task
wait_for:
path: "{{mylogfile}}"
search_regex: '^.*Done in \S+'
timeout: "{{test_timeout}}"
ignore_errors: yes
register: result

Answer 1

Have you tried using retries and delay together?
- name: Checking the build status 1
async_status:
jid: "{{ job1.ansible_job_id }}"
register: job_result
until: job_result.finished
retries: 10
delay: 1
when: job1.ansible_job_id is defined
This will check the async status 10 times with a 1 second interval and it will fail if during the 10 seconds the "until" conditions is not satisfied
