It will not be processed through the shell, so variables like C($env:HOME) and operations like C("<"), C(">"), C("|"), and C(";") will not work (use the M(win_shell) module if you need these features). options: free_form: description: - the win_command module takes a free form command to run. There is no parameter actually named 'free form'. See the examples! required: true creates: description: - a path or path filter pattern; when the referenced path exists on the target host, the task will be skipped. removes: description: - a path or path filter pattern; when the referenced path B(does not) exist on the target host, the task will be skipped. chdir: description: - set the specified path as the current working directory before executing a command notes: - If you want to run a command through a shell (say you are using C(<), C(>), C(|), etc), you actually want the M(win_shell) module instead. The M(win_command) module is much more secure as it's not affected by the user's environment. - " C(creates), C(removes), and C(chdir) can be specified after the command. For instance, if you only want to run a command if a certain file does not exist, use this." author: - Matt Davis ''' EXAMPLES = ''' # Example from Ansible Playbooks. - win_command: whoami register: whoami_out # Run the command only if the specified file does not exist. - win_command: wbadmin -backupTarget:c:\\backup\\ creates=c:\\backup\\ # You can also use the 'args' form to provide the options. This command # will change the working directory to c:\\somedir\\ and will only run when # c:\\backup\\ doesn't exist. - win_command: wbadmin -backupTarget:c:\\backup\\ creates=c:\\backup\\ args: chdir: c:\\somedir\\ creates: c:\\backup\\ ''' RETURN = ''' msg: description: changed returned: always type: boolean sample: True start: description: The command execution start time returned: always type: string sample: '2016-02-25 09:18:26.429568' end: description: The command execution end time returned: always type: string sample: '2016-02-25 09:18:26.755339' delta: description: The command execution delta time returned: always type: string sample: '0:00:00.325771' stdout: description: The command standard output returned: always type: string sample: 'Clustering node rabbit@slave1 with rabbit@master ...' stderr: description: The command standard error returned: always type: string sample: 'ls: cannot access foo: No such file or directory' cmd: description: The command executed by the task returned: always type: string sample: 'rabbitmqctl join_cluster rabbit@master' rc: description: The command return code (0 means success) returned: always type: int sample: 0 stdout_lines: description: The command standard output split in lines returned: always type: list of strings sample: [u'Clustering node rabbit@slave1 with rabbit@master ...'] '''
