To replace text in a string with regex, use the "regex_replace" filter::
|
||||
|
||||
# convert "ansible" to "able"
|
||||
{{ 'ansible' | regex_replace('^a.*i(.*)$', 'a\\1') }}
|
||||
|
||||
# convert "foobar" to "bar"
|
||||
{{ 'foobar' | regex_replace('^f.*o(.*)$', '\\1') }}
|
||||
|
||||
A few useful filters are typically added with each new Ansible release. The development documentation shows
|
||||
how to extend Ansible filters by writing your own as plugins, though in general, we encourage new ones
|
||||
to be added to core so everyone can make use of them.
