[Uppara venkat]

Hi,

wanted to list the files in a directory and copy the only file name into property file,

 using by win_shell: 

  - name:list the files
      win_shell: 'ls {{directory}} > {{directory}}/manifest.prob'
      register: dir_out

    - debug: var={{item}}
      with_items: dir_out.stdout_lines

out put as 

Mode                LastWriteTime         Length Name                                                                  
----                -------------         ------ ----

Hi uppara 

On Linux system we have a parameter -1 to list only names of files.

but I'm working in Windows;

I used Command module as

  - name: list the files 

      win_command: dir /b /a-d 

fatal: [172.31.17.108]: FAILED! => {
    "changed": false,
    "cmd": "dir /b /a-d",
    "msg": "Exception calling \"SearchPath\" with \"1\" argument(s): \"Could not find file 'dir.exe'.\"",
    "rc": 2
}

got above error
