redis_kv - fetch data from Redis¶

DEPRECATED ¶

Removed in Ansible:
	version:
Why:	This lookup uses options intermingled with terms which blurs the interface between settings and data
Alternative:	new ‘redis’ lookup

this lookup returns a list of items given to it, if any of the top level items is also a list it will flatten it, but it will not recurse

The below requirements are needed on the local master node that executes this lookup.

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Configuration	Comments
_terms			Two element comma separated strings composed of url of the Redis server and key to query

- name: query redis for somekey
  debug: msg="{{ lookup('redis_kv', 'redis://localhost:6379,somekey') }} is value in Redis for somekey"

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this lookup:

Key	Returned	Description

This lookup is flagged as deprecated and will be removed in version . For more information see DEPRECATED.
