Using a conditional (when) in conjunction with a loop

[Alex King]

Currently I add system users with the following play:

#
# Create system users
#
- name: sys admin users
tags: sys_admin_users
user: name={{ userdef[item].name }} uid={{ userdef[item].uid }} "groups={{ system_admins_groups|join(',') }}" "comment={{ userdef[item].comment }}" password={{ userdef[item].password }} update_password=on_create shell=/bin/bash
with_items: system_admins

userdef is a dictionary containing all users' details. system_admins is
a list of system admin users.

I'd prefer to have userdefs as a list and be able to write this as
something like:

- name: sys admin users
tags: sys_admin_users
user: name=item.name uid=item.uid "groups={{ system_admins_groups|join(',') }}" "comment={{ item.comment }}" password=item.passwordupdate_password=on_create shell=/bin/bash
with_items: userdef
when: item.name in system_admins

Mixing with_items and when doesn't currently seem possible. (Ansible 1.5.3)

Cheers,
Alex

I'm unclear why you can't do this? Is it failing with an error or some other problem?

Same question as James, but just wanted to point out the 1.6 series is now available.
