unable to parse uri content in a handler

[Anuj Agrawal]

I have a handler of the following form:

- name: reinit task_handler

  uri: url=some_url return_content=yes

  register: webpage

  delegate_to: localhost

 

Now I want to look for some string in webpage.content and mark this a pass or fail. However, I am not able to do this in any way. I tried adding a when in the handler, tried to add a notify in this handler and tried to examine webpage.content in there and a few more things.

Kindly help.

Hi Anuj, have you read the documentation page on "failed_when:"? 

http://docs.ansible.com/playbooks_error_handling.html#controlling-what-defines-failure

I believe you'd want to do something like this:

- name: reinit task_handler

  uri: url=some_url return_content=yes

  register: webpage

  failed_when: '"SOME ERROR STRING" in webpage.content'

  delegate_to: localhost
