Formatting in debug

[Veera]

Hello,

While i try to  grep/cut the url from my below debug output , I am unable to get the exact output.  I tried with split, dict2items ,item2dicts  to break it and grep the exact line . 

TASK [debug] *************************************************************************************************************************************

Monday 15 May 2023  09:10:06 +0300 (0:00:00.027)       0:00:02.906 ************

ok: [localhost] => {

    "msg": "export OS_AUTH_URL=https://mydomain.net:9001/v3\nexport OS_PROJECT_ID=abcdefghijklmnopqwertyuu\nexport OS_PROJECT_NAME=\"my_project\"\nexport OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME=\"Default\"\nif [ -z \"$OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME\" ]; then unset OS_USER_DOMAIN_NAME; fi\nexport OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID=\"default\"\nif [ -z \"$OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID\" ]; then unset OS_PROJECT_DOMAIN_ID; fi\nunset OS_TENANT_ID\nunset OS_TENANT_NAME\nexport OS_USERNAME=\"my_project\"\nexport OS_INTERFACE=public\nexport OS_IDENTITY_API_VERSION=3"

}

 I need only the  string "https://mydomain.net:9001/v3"

from the above debug output as a variable for my next play .

If you get more verbose, you the the output with STDOUT and STDOUT_LINES. STDOUT_LINESis the closest you get for what you're after. May be callback_plugin may help... not sure, never tried that.

Cheers,

Kosala

Hi,

No  STDOUT  or stdout_lines present.  After "msg" the output has only one line inside a {} .

Don't parse the console output, use set_fact to fetch it.

The important question is: what does your debug command look like?

It all sounds like you should be doing something simpler earlier on....

[Veera]

yes...  I was using set_fact and the output shown above is  the debug output of the set_fact.

Still to fetch the URL alone from the output(debug) of the set_fact ,  and to set it as a new variable( using set_fact) ... which is what i am looking for ..

OK, so my question is: what does your set_fact task look like? I.e.
where do you get that string from?

[Veera]

The setfact task has  the contents of a  keystone rc file .  

However I  got the result by writing it into a file , replace the string, read the required lines and then deleted the file ..

[Dick Visser]

So how is the keystone rc file being populated?
Are you perhaps trying to manage a host with ansible, that is already
managed in some other way...?
