creating a list of dicts from a list

[Tim]

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone might know how I would use the standard
ansible filters to create a new variable from an existing variable.

I would like to take a list of items

list1:
- foo
- bar
- baz


and convert it into a list of dictionaries with a "name" key

list2:
- name: foo
- name: bar
- name: baz


Any ideas?

Thanks,
-tim

Use set_fact?

Obviously, care to elaborate? Like with Jinja filters, loops, etc
