The following playbook will failed but exchanged with commented out line then it would work.  
Is there a way to evaluate the url string in get\_url?

Try using Ansible facts instead

url: [https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.24.1/docker-compose-](https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.24.1/docker-compose-){{ ansible\_system }}-{{ ansible\_architecture }}
