You should be able to use that json by doing something like:
- debug: msg="{{ (result.stdout|from_json).ipaddress }}"
If you wanted to try to turn the whole thing into an accessible data type, you
could probably use set_fact:
- set_fact:
some_new_var: "{{ result.stdout|from_json }}"

Hi,
I am a newbie in this wonderful tool Ansible.
I made a playbook script to test it.
But I found that sometimes I need to parse the stdout of each task.
For instance
- name : run and get the result in JSON format on stdout
shell : "/usr/local/something"
register : result
Let's see result.stdout
{u'name':u'test1', u'ipaddress':'xxx.xxx.xxx.xx', u'pass':'asdfasfd'}
Can I extract these three elements(name, ipaddress, pass) from stdout and use
it on another task?
I think lot of users experienced this issue because the return values(stdout)
of tools are not simple sometimes
Even if I have a plan to make another Module I think it's tough because I
should pass the three elements.
(Unfortunately I am not good at Python yet)
Thanks in advance!
-Justin
