I have two shell tasks. The first one runs a check and returns a list of ids to be removed. The second one will remove these ids.
The stdout of the first task looks like this: 1 2 3 4 which then gets fed into the second task to remove 1, 2, 3, 4 But if the first one cannot find ids to be removed, it will instead return an empty string rather than an error. How do I check in Ansible for an empty string, and how do I pass I set the variable through register - name: task1 shell: script1 register: result - name: task2 shell: script2 `script1` when: result.length() > 0 <<< ?? I tried with stdout_lines.length(), length, size(), size, len(). No luck. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
