I need to display the date-time that a file was last updated.   

The value can be obtained with stat on the file:

- name: Get file stats

     stat: path="{{ path_of_file }}"

  register: reg


- debug:

     msg:  “Timestamp of {{path}}: {{reg.stat.mtime}}”


However the output is meaningless because it is a float value.
The only solution I could find requires the creation of a custom filter:

Is there a simpler way?

Thank you all.
Jim
