with_nested and when condition

[Adam Shantz]

I'm trying to write a play that allows for me to only build certain directories conditionally while using the with_nested.

Here's my variable dictionary:

routers:
  router1:
    hostname: adam
  router2:
    hostname: steve

Here's my play:

- name: create dirs for swiftmq
  file:
    state: directory
    path: "{{app_path}}/{{item[1]}}/{{item[0]}}"
    follow: yes
    owner: inpho
    group: inpho
    mode: 0755
  when:
    - item[0].hostname == ansible_hostname
  with_nested:
    - "{{routers}}"
    - [ 'config', 'deploy', 'jmsapp', 'log', 'store', 'trace' ]


So, my desired behavior is that it would only create the directories when absible_hostname=adam or ansible_hostname=steve.

I get the following error:

fatal: [xxx]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "The conditional check 'item[0].hostname == ansible_hostname' failed. The error was: error while evaluating conditional (item[0].hostname == ansible_hostname): 'unicode object' has no attribute 'hostname'\n\nThe error appears to have been in 'xxx': line 33, column 3, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n\n- name: create dirs for xxx\n  ^ here\n"}


Is it possible to use a when condition in conjunction with with_nested?  If so, how do I reference children of the items in the conditional?  I've tried it a bunch of ways & can't seem to figure it out.

Thanks in advance!
