win_disk_facts - get size and size remaining

[Jeremie Levy]

Hi

I'm trying to use win_disk_facts new module.

I would like to get the size and remaining size of each disk/partition/volume.

Is there a way to "discover" how many of them there are in a kind of loop ?

- name: Get disk facts

    win_disk_facts:

  - name: Output first disk size

    debug:

      msg: '{{ disk1s }}' 

    vars: 

      disk1s: '{{ ansible_facts.disks[0].partitions[0].volumes[0].size }}'

This one gives me info on the first partition, what about the others ? if there is 1 or 20 ?

Thanks!

This is pretty much why I was in favor of a separate module for volumes. I'd encountered the same issues but I ended up making my own module for it.  You can take a look at this if it suits your fancy: https://github.com/chopraaa/win_volume_facts/

It's kinda shit tbh but hey, it does the job.

I found how to loop over the data, but i still didn't figure out how to select inside specific data

- name: test 1

debug:

msg: "{{ item.key }}"

with_dict: "{{ ansible_disks }}"

Got:

....
ok: [hostname] => (item=None) => {                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

    "msg": "partitions"                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

}
....        

If trying to dig into partitions 

{{ item.value.partitions }}

"msg": "The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was: 'ansible.utils.unsafe_proxy.AnsibleUnsafeText object' has no attribute 'partitions'

Any chance someone give an input, it seems just a json gap i have and not ansible actually.

Thanks!
