I found the answer in a previous
post: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/ansible-project/NGXcbyQvz-Y/discussion
So register stores the variable even if the task is skipped, and this is
the intended behaviour.
I was able to do what I want with one longer shell command, although I was
expecting something more elegant:
tasks:
- name: test
shell: if [ {{ ansible_hostname | match("^xy-") }} == True ]; then
echo /opt/cache/www; else if [ {{ ansible_hostname | match("^az-") }} ==
True ]; then echo /mnt/code/www; fi; fi
register: www_data
- debug: var=www_data.stdout
when: www_data.rc == 0
