I have a silly playbook which just runs a command to get the list of vhost in every host on webserver group. As all vhost are located in /var/www is easy to get the list of webs.

The problem is the way of Ansible returns the info. For example:

ok: [host1] => {
    "var": {
        "out.stdout_lines": [
            "",
            "host1.com"
        ]
    }
}
ok: [host2] => {
    "var": {
        "out.stdout_lines": [
            "",
            "host2.com"
        ]
    }
}

Do you know an easy way to just get the name of the vhosts? Using grep awk or something like that?

Maybe Ansible ad-hoc is something too use
ansible webservers -a "ls /var/www" | egrep -v ">>|^$"
