jinja2 - Ansible: filter a list by its attributes

I have variable named "network" registered in Ansible:

{
    "addresses": {
        "private_ext": [
            {
                "type": "fixed",
                "addr": "172.16.2.100"
            }
        ],
        "private_man": [
            {
                "type": "fixed",
                "addr": "172.16.1.100"
            },
            {
                "type": "floating",
                "addr": "10.90.80.10"
            }
        ]
    }
}

Is it possible to get the IP address ("addr") with type="floating" doing something like this?

- debug: var={{ network.addresses.private_man | filter type="fixed" | get "addr" }}

I know the syntax is wrong but you get the idea.

To filter a list of dicts you can use the selectattr filter together with the equalto test:

network.addresses.private_man | selectattr("type", "equalto", "fixed")

The above requires Jinja2 v2.8 or later (regardless of Ansible version).


Ansible also has the tests match and search, which take regular expressions:

match will require a complete match in the string, while search will require a match inside of the string.

network.addresses.private_man | selectattr("type", "match", "^fixed$")

To reduce the list of dicts to a list of strings, so you only get a list of the addr fields, you can use the map filter:

... | map(attribute='addr') | list

Or if you want a comma separated string:

... | map(attribute='addr') | join(',')

Combined, it would look like this.

- debug: msg={{ network.addresses.private_man | selectattr("type", "equalto", "fixed") | map(attribute='addr') | join(',') }}
