when item not in key of hash

[Rishi]

Trying to figure out if the following is possible.

I have a hash map e.g.

tools:

  a:

    foobar: 1

  b:

    barfoo: 3

- file: path=/some/dir/{{ item }} state=absent

  with_items: contents.stdout_lines

  when: item not in [[ list of tools keys ]]

I want  [[ list of tools keys ]] to turn into [a,b] basically so the when clause could work. Any way to do this?

tools.keys() would give you all of the keys.  However in Python/jinja2 this can be shortcut by just specifying tools such as:

when: item not in tools
