ansible string.split() with multiple delimiters












0















I'm having a hard time trying to split the string into list using multiple delimiters. I could just split it twice like follows:



myString.split(':')[1].split('.')


However this would look so unelegant.
In my head, I'd like to do something like:



myString.split(': | .')


Is that even a thing?

I can think of two ways to do it.



Replace all delimeters with a single delimeter and then split:



- set_fact: my_list="{{ (myString | regex_replace(':|.', ':')).split(':') }}"


Split using regular expression:



- set_fact: mystr="{{ myString | regex_findall('([^:.]+)') }} "

  • Yes, as I said, I know I can do it other way. My point is, can the split() be used in ansible to split using multiple delimiters? This answer does not answer my question.

  • Answer to your question is No. You cant do it with only split() function. You have to ask this as a feature request from ansible.
