@ -527,11 +527,18 @@ To escape special characters within a regex, use the "regex_escape" filter::
|
|||
|
||||
# convert '^f.*o(.*)$' to '\^f\.\*o\(\.\*\)\$'
|
||||
{{ '^f.*o(.*)$' | regex_escape() }}
|
||||
|
||||
To make use of one attribute from each item in a list of complex variables, use the "map" filter (see the `Jinja2 map() docs`_ for more)::
|
||||
|
||||
# get a comma-separated list of the mount points (e.g. "/,/mnt/stuff") on a host
|
||||
{{ ansible_mounts|map(attribute='mount')|join(',') }}
|
||||
|
||||
A few useful filters are typically added with each new Ansible release. The development documentation shows
|
||||
how to extend Ansible filters by writing your own as plugins, though in general, we encourage new ones
|
||||
to be added to core so everyone can make use of them.
