Escape characters in Jinja2 Ansible
I am trying to create a Jinja2 Template to be used in an Ansible role and I really don't know how to escape double quotes in this template.
My code is like this:
{% for site in sites %}
testclass="HTTPSamplerProxy" testname="{{ site.path }}" enabled="true">
My variable is site.path and when I am adding double quotes ("") is not taken as a variable anymore.
How can I escape does character?

I am assuming sites is a list of dictionaries which includes a key called "path"
The following works for me where sites is a list of dictionaries:
{% for site in sites.values() %}
testclass="HTTPSamplerProxy" testname="{{ site.path }}" enabled="true">
{% endfor %}
The rendered template contains a "testclass" line for each dictionary in the list and site.path is interpolated

Site.path is indeed a variable from a list of dictionaries, but this works well and is correct. The problem is that I need the result of the value to have double quotes . In the example you posted, same as mine, site.path will not be seen as a variable anymore because of the quotes. I also tried with 2 double quotes, with /, but without success. I cannot escape them testname=""{{ site.path }}"" testname="{{ site.path }}"
