ansible.builtin.select filter – Filters a sequence of objects by applying a test to each object, and only selecting the objects with the test succeeding.
Note
This filter plugin is part of ansible-core and included in all Ansible
installations. In most cases, you can use the short
plugin name
select.
However, we recommend you use the Fully Qualified Collection Name (FQCN) ansible.builtin.select for easy linking to the
plugin documentation and to avoid conflicting with other collections that may have
the same filter plugin name.
Synopsis
Filters a sequence of objects by applying a test to each object, and only selecting the objects with the test succeeding.
This is the Jinja builtin filter plugin ‘select’.
See: https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/stable/templates/#jinja-filters.select
Hint
Configuration entries for each entry type have a low to high priority order. For example, a variable that is lower in the list will override a variable that is higher up.
