@ -370,34 +370,45 @@ Now, let's take the following data structure::
To extract all clusters from this structure, you can use the following query::
- name: "Display all cluster names"
debug: var=item
debug:
var: item
loop: "{{ domain_definition | json_query('domain.cluster[*].name') }}"
Same thing for all server names::
- name: "Display all server names"
debug: var=item
debug:
var: item
loop: "{{ domain_definition | json_query('domain.server[*].name') }}"
This example shows ports from cluster1::
- name: "Display all server names from cluster1"
debug: var=item
- name: "Display all ports from cluster1"
debug:
var: item
loop: "{{ domain_definition | json_query(server_name_cluster1_query) }}"
vars:
server_name_cluster1_query: "domain.server[?cluster=='cluster1'].port"
.. note :: You can use a variable to make the query more readable.
Or, alternatively::
Or, alternatively print out the ports in a comma separated string ::
- name: "Display all server names from cluster1 "
- name: "Display all ports from cluster1 as a string "
debug:
var: item
loop: "{{domain_definition|json_query('domain.server[?cluster=`cluster1` ].port')}}"
msg: "{{ domain_definition | json_query('domain.server[?cluster==`cluster1` ].port') | join(', ') }}"
.. note :: Here, quoting literals using backticks avoids escaping quotes and maintains readability.
Or, using YAML `single quote escaping <http://yaml.org/spec/current.html#id2534365> `_ ::
- name: "Display all ports from cluster1"
debug:
var: item
loop: "{{ domain_definition | json_query('domain.server[?cluster==''cluster1''].port') }}"
.. note :: Escaping single quotes within single quotes in YAML is done by doubling the single quote.
In this example, we get a hash map with all ports and names of a cluster::
- name: "Display all server ports and names from cluster1"
