I'm not able to replicate this:
---
- hosts: localhost
vars:
transforms_conf:
- section: setnull
options:
- REGEX: "\\b/exclude1/\\b|\\b/exclude2/\\b"
- DEST_KEY: queue
- FORMAT: nullQueue
tasks:
- template:
dest: /var/tmp/output
src: /var/tmp/input.j2
$ grep REGEX /var/tmp/output *[devel] (09:03:38)
REGEX = \b/exclude1/\b|\b/exclude2/\b
Tried with ansible 1.9.2 and with the current devel branch.
Are you using a different version of ansible? Or setting the variable
in a different manner?
