Stat.exists false with list of variables in ansible

Question

UPD: (As advised @vladimir-botka)

I have a problem with checking NOT existing folder using dictonary in Ansible.

---
- name: "check folder"
  hosts: "myserver"
  gather_facts: yes
  remote_user: root

  vars:
    git_repos:
     repo1:
        git_repo_folder: /var/www/folder1
     repo2:
        git_repo_folder: /var/www/folder2

  tasks:

  - name: "1. Check that the folder exists"
    stat:
      path: "{{ item.value.git_repo_folder }}"
    loop: "{{ lookup('dict', git_repos) }}"
    register: check_folder

  - name: "2. debug"
    debug:
      msg: '{{item.item.item.value.git_repo_folder}} exists'
    with_items: "{{ check_folder.results }}"
    when: not item.stat.exists

Then, if I trying to run playbook, I got the error:

FAILED! => {"msg": "The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was: 'dict object' has no attribute 'item'\n\nThe error appears to have been in '/home/reset/ansible-prod/SSL-GENERATOR/TEST.yml': line 22, column 5, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n\n  - name: \"2. debug\"\n    ^ here\n"}

UPD2:

I've tried to debug it:

- debug: var=check_folder and got:

    "check_folder": {

                    }
                }, 
                "item": {
                    "key": "repo2", 
                    "value": {
                        "git_repo_folder": "/var/www/folder2"
                    }
                }, 
                "stat": {
                    "exists": false
                }
            }
        ]
    }
}

Where I am wrong? Is it possible to use "not stat.exists" with list of variables?

Thanks for answer! Thanks for answer! Thanks for answer! Thanks for answer! Thanks for answer!

Answer 1

Let's test non-existence, because the folders do not exist. The task below

- name: "2. debug"
  debug:
    msg: "{{ item.item.value.git_repo_folder }} does not exist"
  with_items: "{{ check_folder.results }}"
  when: not item.stat.exists

gives:

"msg": "/var/www/folder1 does not exist"
"msg": "/var/www/folder2 does not exist"
