Need to filter with_items values based on specific string

[Pandu jh]

I need to reject "none" value item in ping test task. It has to take only "non- none" values from the with_items in the task.

 Please help me to fix this.

      - set_fact:

          linux_ip: "{{ item.stdout_lines[0] }}"

          unix_ip: "{{ item.stdout_lines[1] | default('none') }}"

        loop: "{{ ip_address_api.results }}"

      - debug:  var=unix_ip

      - debug:  var=linux_ip

      - name: Ping Test

        win_shell:  |

            if (Test-Connection {{  item  }} -Quiet -Count 2) {

            write-host "Ping - Successful"

            }

            else {

            Write-Host "Ping - Failed"

            }

        register: ping_check

        ignore_errors:  yes

        with_items:

          - "{{ unix_ip  }}"

          - "{{ linux_ip }}"

      - debug: var=ping_check

I tired with reject filter but it did not work.

      - name: Ping Test

        win_shell:  |

            if (Test-Connection {{  item  }} -Quiet -Count 2) {

            write-host "Ping - Successful"

            }

            else {

            Write-Host "Ping - Failed"

            }

        register: ping_check

        ignore_errors:  yes

        with_items:

          - "{{  unix_ip | reject('match','none) | list  }}"

          - "{{ linux_ip   }}"

      - debug: var=ping_check

I can imagine various solutions to the problem, but

when: "item != 'none'"

should do the trick.
