How can one add a taint to a worker node in kubespray?

Question

I use kubespray to provision kubernetes cluster. I need to mark one of the worker nodes as tainted.

Curious is there a way in kubespray to taint a specific worker node?

Actually have yet to test this but from the documentation it looks as if you can run kubespray with an inventory file like this:

[kube-master]
master01
master02
master03

[kube-node]
node01
node02
node03
node04

[tainted]
node01 node_taints='[\"my_taint=true:NoSchedule\"]'
