module: file
version_added: "historical"
short_description: Sets attributes of files
extends_documentation_fragment: files
description:
- Sets attributes of files, symlinks, and directories, or removes
files/symlinks/directories. Many other modules support the same options as
the M(file) module - including M(copy), M(template), and M(assemble).
notes:
- See also M(copy), M(template), M(assemble)
requirements: [ ]
author: Michael DeHaan
options:
path:
description:
- 'path to the file being managed. Aliases: I(dest), I(name)'
required: true
default: []
aliases: ['dest', 'name']
state:
description:
- If C(directory), all immediate subdirectories will be created if they
do not exist, since 1.7 they will be created with the supplied permissions.
If C(file), the file will NOT be created if it does not exist, see the M(copy)
or M(template) module if you want that behavior. If C(link), the symbolic
link will be created or changed. Use C(hard) for hardlinks. If C(absent),
directories will be recursively deleted, and files or symlinks will be unlinked.
If C(touch) (new in 1.4), an empty file will be created if the c(path) does not
exist, while an existing file or directory will receive updated file access and
modification times (similar to the way `touch` works from the command line).
required: false
default: file
choices: [ file, link, directory, hard, touch, absent ]
src:
required: false
default: null
choices: []
description:
- path of the file to link to (applies only to C(state=link)). Will accept absolute,
relative and nonexisting paths. Relative paths are not expanded.
recurse:
required: false
default: "no"
choices: [ "yes", "no" ]
version_added: "1.1"
description:
- recursively set the specified file attributes (applies only to state=directory)
force:
required: false
default: "no"
choices: [ "yes", "no" ]
description:
- 'force the creation of the symlinks in two cases: the source file does
not exist (but will appear later); the destination exists and is a file (so, we need to unlink the
"path" file and create symlink to the "src" file in place of it).'
