Firstly - sorry for the noob question.
I've written a Powershell script that is run from a play that returns in
json the name of a zip file.
****Output from Powershell****
{
"Name": "latest-ansible v0.1.zip"
}
***playbook***
---
- hosts: all
vars:
filename: none
tasks:
- name: Install IIS Web-Server with sub features and management tools
win_feature:
name: Web-Server
state: present
include_sub_features: yes
include_management_tools: yes
register: win_feature
- name: reboot if installing Web-Server feature requires it
win_reboot:
when: win_feature.reboot_required
- name: Run Powershell script and return json including zip file name
script: files/script.ps1
register: result
- set_fact: filename={{result.stdout_lines}}
- debug: var=result
- debug: var=filename
- name: copy files
win_copy:
src: C:\Temp\"{{ filename }}"
dest: C:\Inetpub
Output snippet from running the play is as per below....

What I am trying to do is copy the zip file to a different directory on the
same server, create a new folder with name captured in the value in the
json output of filename (excluding the .zip - I.E latest-ansible v0.1) and
then extract the contents to this new folder.
What do I need to change in my playbook syntax to get this file copy to
work leveraging the value in the json output? After I've got this sorted I
can tackle the next hurdle :-)
Thanks in advance!
