playbook:-
Can anyone help on this?
Hmmm… it should fail… as the string is matched…
What happens when you do this instead?:
-
name: searching the rpm into pulp repo
command: pulp-admin rpm repo content rpm --repo-id=mobi-snapshots --match ‘filename={{ item }}’
loop: “{{ rpmname | default() }}”
register: pulpresult
when: rpmsearch is defined
ignore_errors: yes -
name: invoke failure
fail:
when: pulpresult.stdout == “\e[0m”

Hi Rao,
when i check with this condition
failed_when: pulp.results.0.stdout == “\e[0m”
it gives me following error

I see you used debug to get a verbose out from that specific command.
Does that list stdout as one of the return values?
-R.Rao
Yes ,
pulp.results.0.stdout give me output “\e[0m”
But when I try to access in failed_when condition
It is giving me below error.
fatal: [node]: FAILED! =>
msg: ‘The conditional check ‘‘pulp.results.0.stdout == “\e[0m”’’ failed. The error was: error while evaluating conditional (pulp.results.0.stdout == “\e[0m”): ‘‘dict object’’ has no attribute ‘‘results’’’
results only exists if you registered in a loop
Hi Brian,
I have registered results. i am able to access the content using pulp.results.[0].stdout. if nothing is found stdout prints this “\e[0m”. And i want to compare this string to failed the task using failed_when condition.
but somehow it gives me below error.
fatal: [pulp]: FAILED! =>
msg: ‘The conditional check ‘‘pulp.results.[0].stdout == “\e[0m”’’ failed. The error was: template error while templating string: expected name or number. String: {% if pulp.results.[0].stdout == “\e[0m” %} True {% else %} False {% endif %}’
Playbook:-
is there any example which i refer like this to get sorted out?
Sebastian Meyer gave you the answer to this in you other thread, maybe read that one more carefully?
can you tell me what should be written in role? i am trying to understand but can’t intepret in role.
-
name: Logging into pulp
shell: pulp-admin login -u admin -p admin -
name: searching the rpm into {{ reponame }} repo
shell: pulp-admin rpm repo content rpm --repo-id={{reponame}} --match ‘filename={{ item }}’
loop: “{{ rpmname | default() }}”
register: pulp
when: search is defined
failed_when: pulp.stdout == “\e[0m”
Also i tried to use this one.
But ansible task will pass without fail.
This is the correct syntax.
The reason it doesn't work can be many thing and the trial and error might be you best option.
Your backslash in failed_when is probably taken as an escape.
- So try double backslash to escape the the backslash.
- Try changing to single quotes instead of double(with and without double backslashes)
Alternative is to just check for partial match(leave out the backslash).
failed_when: "'e[0m' in pulp.stdout"
If that will not work you have a lot of filter that can do regexp that you can look into.
Hi kai,
thanks for information.
i tried below condition
failed_when: pulp.stdout == “\e[0m”
failed_when: pulp.stdout == ‘\e[0m’
failed_when: pulp.stdout == “\e[0m”
failed_when: pulp.stdout == “\e[0m”
failed_when: “‘e[0m’ in pulp.stdout”
i tried all stuff but no luck
any new suggestion ?
ansible task not failed still its passing.
''pulp.results.[0].std" is incorrect you have extra . “pullp.results[0].std” is the correct form
Hi Brian,
I was able to successfully do this task by following the instructions.
Thanks for matt to give some logic.
- name: searching the rpm into {{ reponame }} repo
shell: pulp-admin rpm repo content rpm --repo-id={{reponame}} --match ‘filename={{ item }}’
loop: “{{ rpmname | default() }}”
register: pulp
when: search is defined
failed_when: pulp.stdout == “\u001b[0m”
