To parse multi-document yaml strings, the ``from_yaml_all`` filter is provided.
The ``from_yaml_all`` filter will return a generator of parsed yaml documents.

tasks:
- shell: cat /some/path/to/multidoc-file.yaml
register: result
- debug:
msg: '{{ item }}'
loop: '{{ result.stdout | from_yaml_all | list }}'
