Complex dictionary access

[Mark Tovey]

    I have a dictionary structure that looks like the following:

  

myservers:

DC1:

CORE: 10.10.10.20

DMZ: 10.10.20.20

DC2:

CORE: 10.10.10.30.20

DMZ: 10.10.10.40.20

DC3:

CORE: 10.10.50.20

DMZ: 10.10.60.20

DC4:

CORE: 10.10.70.20

DMZ: 10.10.80.20

    And another dictionary that looks like the following:

location:

address: 10.10.10.10

dc: DC1

net: 10.10.10.0

bits: 24

zone: CORE 

    I want to do something like the following:

- debug:

msg: "myserver = myservers['{{location.dc}}']['{{location.zone}}']"

    and get back the message:

myserver = 10.10.10.20

    But instead, I get:

myserver = myservers['DC1']['CORE']

 

    I want to see the value stored at myservers['DC1']['CORE'], not the string "myservers['DC1']['CORE']".

    I have tried " {{ myservers['{{location.dc}}']['{{location.zone}}] }}", but YAML does not allow nested braces, so that fails.  And I have tried many other variations, but they all fail too.  I am stymied.  How do I extract the information I want?

Hello.

Try use "{{myserver[location.dc][location.zone]}}"

    I knew it was going to be simple, although I thought I tried that one too.  But that got it.

    Thanks!
