ansible.builtin.csvfile
The csvfile lookup reads the contents of a file in CSV (comma-separated value) format. The lookup looks for the row where the first column matches keyname (which can be multiple words) and returns the value in the col column (default 1, which indexed from 0 means the second column in the file).
Parameter
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| col | string | column to return (0 indexed). |
| default | string | what to return if the value is not found in the file. |
| delimiter | string | field separator in the file, for a tab you can specify TAB or \t. |
| file | string | name of the CSV/TSV file to open. |
Examples
- name: Match 'Li' on the first column, return the second column (0 based index)
ansible.builtin.debug: msg="The atomic number of Lithium is {{ lookup('ansible.builtin.csvfile', 'Li file=elements.csv delimiter=,') }}"
- name: msg="Match 'Li' on the first column, but return the 3rd column (columns start counting after the match)"
ansible.builtin.debug: msg="The atomic mass of Lithium is {{ lookup('ansible.builtin.csvfile', 'Li file=elements.csv delimiter=, col=2') }}"
- name: Define Values From CSV File, this reads file in one go, but you could also use col= to read each in it's own lookup.
