Get exactly data from "stdout" or "stdout_lines" with exact words of output

I have a task

- name: DELEGATED ADMIN ACCOUNTS - check, get and send to the file domain.list
  shell: /opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -l gaaa -v zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount

and after this task I got output

changed: [Shrrah] => {
    "changed": true,
    "cmd": [
        "sh",
        "/home/information_domain.sh"
    ],
    "delta": "0:00:02.495922",
    "end": "2022-03-29 10:25:16.936051",

            "argv": null,

        }
    },

    "stdout": "# name admin@shrrah.esquimail.com\nzimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: FALSE\n\n# name prueba5@prueba5.com\n\n# name prueba7@prueba7.com\nzimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE\n\n# name prueba9@prueba9.com",
    "stdout_lines": [
        "# name admin@shrrah.esquimail.com",
        "zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: FALSE",
        "",
        "# name prueba5@prueba5.com",
        "",
        "# name prueba7@prueba7.com",
        "zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE",
        "",
        "# name prueba9@prueba9.com"
    ]
}

I need to get data with n# name prueba7@prueba7.com\nzimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE from "stdout" or from "stdout_lines" in format:

prueba7@prueba7.com zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE

prueba7@prueba7.com
zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE

and send it to the file.txt. Number of lines can be different (one o more users with domain).

I have no idea how I can do this, is this possible? If you know could you please help with advice? Thank you!

Solution

You may have a look into debug – Print statements during execution, Using Variables and Return Values.

---
- hosts: localhost
  become: true
  gather_facts: false

  vars:
    RESULT:
      STDOUT_LINES:
        - "# name admin@shrrah.esquimail.com"
        - "zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: FALSE"
        - ""
        - "# name prueba5@prueba5.com"
        - ""
        - "# name prueba7@prueba7.com"
        - "zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE"
        - ""
        - "# name prueba9@prueba9.com"

  tasks:

  - name: Show STDOUT_LINES
    debug:
      msg: "{{ RESULT.STDOUT_LINES }}"

resulting into an output only of

TASK [Show STDOUT_LINES] *****************
ok: [localhost] =>
  msg:
  - '# name admin@shrrah.esquimail.com'
  - 'zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: FALSE'
  - ''
  - '# name prueba5@prueba5.com'
  - ''
  - '# name prueba7@prueba7.com'
  - 'zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE'
  - ''
  - '# name prueba9@prueba9.com'

and if Ansible Callback plugin is configured to YAML instead of JSON.

To get lines containing certain strings only you may Loop over the list based on a Condition

  - name: Show lines with TRUE only
    debug:
      msg: "{{ item }}"
    when: "'TRUE' in item"
    loop: "{{ RESULT.STDOUT_LINES }}"

resulting into an output of

TASK [Show lines with TRUE only] *******************************
ok: [localhost] => (item=zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE) =>
  msg: 'zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE'

Further Documenation

Index of all Callback Plugins

If you like to have the line before included, you could use an approach like

  - name: Show lines with TRUE and line before
    debug:
      msg: "{{ RESULT.STDOUT_LINES[ansible_loop.index0 - 1] }}\n{{ item }}"
    when: "'TRUE' in item"
    loop: "{{ RESULT.STDOUT_LINES }}"
    loop_control:
      extended: true
      label: "{{ ansible_loop.index0 }}"

resulting into an output of

TASK [Show lines with TRUE and line before] *************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => (item=6) =>
  msg: |-
    # name prueba7@prueba7.com
    zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount: TRUE

Further Documentation

Extended loop variables

Since you are using the shell module, you could use also an approach like

- name: DELEGATED ADMIN ACCOUNTS - check, get and send to the file domain.list
  shell: 
    cmd: /opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -l gaaa -v zimbraIsDelegatedAdminAccount | grep -B 1 TRUE

and gather only result lines which are true an the line before.

Further Q&A

grep a file, but show several surrounding lines?
