And I need an output similar to
- docker-compose_grafana_1
- docker-compose_node-red_1
- docker-compose_organizr_1
- docker-compose_prometheus_1
I can do that with jq easy-peasy:
jq --raw-output '.docker_compose_init_result.services\[\] | keys | .\[\]' jsondata.json
But I am not able to do it with Ansible and especially json_query (and thus JMESPath).
I was able to get one key with
jp -f jsondata.json "keys(docker_compose_init_result.services.grafana)"
[
"docker-compose_grafana_1"
]
But have no idea how to get all four. Also sometimes expressions that worked with jp did not work in Ansible with json_query, which additionally made me mad.
If anyone can give me a solution for this (wether its with json_query or not) in the best case explains how it works, I would be very glad.
In a pure JMESPath way, you query should be:
docker_compose_init_result.services.*.keys(@)[]
Where:
.* is the notation for an object project, that will make you get the values under docker_compose_init_result.services, whatever the key might be..keys(@) is the keys() function, in order to get the keys, mapped to the current node — @, which effectively means that keys() is going to be applied to every object which are children of docker_compose_init_result.services.*, (e.g.: on docker_compose_init_result.services.grafana."docker-compose_grafana_1", docker_compose_init_result.services."node-red"."docker-compose_node-red_1", and so on)[] is the flatten operator, in order to reduce your array of arrays to a single level array
