Grains matching / search - sub elements and arrays

[Mariusz Stankiewicz]

Hi,

I have been wondering how to show grains in from a more complex array, or sub grains.  For example I have:

# salt winweb03 grains.item locale_info

winweb03:

    ----------

    locale_info:

        ----------

        defaultencoding:

            cp1252

        defaultlanguage:

            en_US

And I want to show defaultencoding, I have tried doing

# salt winweb03 grains.item locale_info.defaultencoding

or

# salt winweb03 grains.item locale_info:defaultencoding

But I cannot seem to figure out what it should be.

---

Also I was wondering how I could print the first result of a grains array, for example:

# salt winweb03 grains.item 'ipv4'

winweb03:

    ----------

    ipv4:

        - 10.90.1.246

        - 10.90.1.247

How would I print just the first IP in the above grains.item list?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Try 'grains.get foo:bar' for fetching nested grains.

That worked, lifesaver!
