Re: [ansible-project] How to split a json key containing a colon into 2 keys
I'm impressed. It works perfectly. Only the first key is split as expected..

Try this
- set_fact:
json_data1: "{{ json_data1|default({})|combine(my_key) }}"
vars:
my_keys: "{{ item.key.split(':') }}"
my_keys_length: "{{ my_keys|length == 1 }}"
my_key: "{{ my_keys_length|
ternary({my_keys[0]: item.value},
{my_keys[0]: {my_keys[1:]|join(':')|default('NA'):
item.value}}) }}"
loop: "{{ json_data|dict2items }}"

[ansible-project] How to split a json key containing a colon into 2 keys
I receive some json data which *sometimes* start with the first key within
"json_data" variable containing a ':', such as:
"json_data": {
"key1:key2": {
"key3": [
"value31",
"value32",
"..."
]
}
}
The goal is to split "key1:key2" into 2 keys so that we end up with:
"json_data": {
"key1": {
"key2": {
"key3": [
"value31",
"value32",
"..."
]
}
}
}
The key names are completely variable so I also have no idea about how to
implement the play condition so that this transformation is done only when
the first key within "json_data" contains a single colon.
I am aware that a colon should not be part of any key, but I have no
control over that.
Any suggestion?
