I have output of an ansible playbook for which i need to apply fileters in such a way to proceed with next tasks. Please find the below output.
ok: [localhost] => {
"results": [
{
"actions": {
"namespaces": {},
"state": "present",
"xpath": "/Storage/SSL/KeyStorePath"
},
"ansible_loop_var": "item",
"changed": false,
"pod": 1,
"failed": false,
"invocation": {
"module_args": {
"mount": true,
"input_type": "yaml",
}
},
"item": "100.108.22.102",
"msg": "found 1 nodes"
},
{
"actions": {
"namespaces": {},
"state": "present",
"xpath": "/Storage/SSL/KeyStorePath"
},
"ansible_loop_var": "item",
"changed": false,
"pod": 0,
"failed": false,
"invocation": {
"module_args": {
"mount": true,
"input_type": "yaml",
}
},
"item": "100.108.22.103",
"msg": "found 0 nodes"
}
]
}
Here, i want the next task to be executed when the node respective pod value is 1 if the pod value of the node is 0 then the next task should not run on the respective node ip.
Please assist ..

Answer 1

Q: "Execute next task when the node's respective pod value is 1"
A: There are many ways how to proceed with the next task. For example, given the variable results
Use delegate_to and loop selected items
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- debug:
msg: 'Task is running on {{ item.item }}'
loop: "{{ results|selectattr('pod', 'eq', 1)|list }}"
loop_control:
label: "{{ item.item }}"
delegate_to: "{{ item.item }}"
gives (abridged)
TASK [debug] ****
ok: [localhost -> 100.108.22.102] => (item=100.108.22.102) =>
msg: Task is running on 100.108.22.102
Create a list of selected hosts and test the host is in the list
- hosts: 100.108.22.102,100.108.22.103
tasks:
- debug:
msg: "Task is running on {{ inventory_hostname }}"
when: inventory_hostname in pods
vars:
pods: "{{ results|
selectattr('pod', 'eq', 1)|
map(attribute='item')|
list }}"
gives (abridged)
TASK [debug] ****
ok: [100.108.22.102] =>
msg: Task is running on 100.108.22.102
skipping: [100.108.22.103]
Use add_host to create an inventory group in the first play and use it in the second one
- hosts: localhost
tasks:
- add_host:
name: '{{ item }}'
groups: pods_enabled
loop: "{{ results|
selectattr('pod', 'eq', 1)|
map(attribute='item')|
list }}"
- hosts: pods_enabled
tasks:
- debug:
msg: "Task is running on {{ inventory_hostname }}"
gives (abridged)
PLAY [localhost] ****
TASK [add_host] ****
changed: [localhost] => (item=100.108.22.102)
PLAY [pods_enabled] ****
TASK [debug] ****
ok: [100.108.22.102] =>
msg: Task is running on 100.108.22.102
PLAY RECAP ****
100.108.22.102: ok=1 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0 skipped=0 rescued=0 ignored=0
localhost: ok=1 changed=1 unreachable=0 failed=0 skipped=0 rescued=0 ignored=0

You could use with_items and when in your next task as below
- name: validate pod value
debug:
msg: "The pod value is 1"
with_items: "{{ your_var.results }}"
when: item.pod == "1"
