Install Ansible via pip

Install with pip install ansible-core==2.16.5

Description

Creates a list with the iterated elements of the supplied lists

To clarify with an example, [ 'a', 'b' ] and [ 1, 2 ] turn into [ ('a',1), ('b', 2) ]

This is basically the same as the 'zip_longest' filter and Python function

Any 'unbalanced' elements will be substituted with 'None'

Usage examples

  • Success
    Steampunk Spotter scan finished with no errors, warnings or hints.
- name: item.0 returns from the 'a' list, item.1 returns from the '1' list
  ansible.builtin.debug:
    msg: "{{ item.0 }} and {{ item.1 }}"
  with_together:
    - ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
    - [1, 2, 3, 4]
