Can you please suggest what is the correct way to print all the searched

registered variable to perform other actions later in the playbook.
Just use grep
- command: grep -P "^\s*SSLFILE" /tmp/httpd.conf
register: results
- debug: msg="{{ results.stdout }}"
- debug: msg="{{ item }}"
with_items: "{{ results.stdout_lines }}"

Re: [ansible-project] Unable to print regex registered variable in Ansible
Not undestanding exactly what you want to achieve...
For the syntax error you forgot a quote
So instead of this
target: "{{ input | regex_replace('\\sSSLFile.*, '\\1') }}"
You need this
target: "{{ input | regex_replace('\\sSSLFile.*' , '\\1') }}"

It's not entirely clear what you mean by this.

Re: [ansible-project] Unable to print regex registered variable in Ansible
Reading the contents of the file is not the challenge. I used both sllurp
as well as cat and I can see the file contents in the debug. The error
occurs when I regex for the desired string.
- name: Slurp certificate entries
slurp:
src: "{{ httpd_home }}/conf/httpd.conf"
register: filecontent
- name: Find certificate entries
set_fact:
input: "{{ filecontent['content'] | b64decode }}"
- debug:
msg: "{{ input }}"
- name: Regex String
set_fact:
target: "{{ input | regex_replace('\\sSSLFile.*, '\\1') }}"
The regex task fails where we are assigning the set_fact "target" with the
below error:
TASK [Regex String] ***

Hi,
Perhaps you should better use slurp module to register the content of
the file and do some regexp to print what you want on it...
