help with yaml file

[Vinod P]

Hello All,

Need some help with yaml file

I am trying to run find command to fetch old IP address from multiple files in /etc directory and replace them with new IP address as follows

sudo find /etc  -type f -exec sed -i -e 's/10.1.3.51/10.2.3.54/g' {} +

I can accomplish this using the command but how do I do it using yaml file as i need to run it on multiple servers. 

Please help and thanks in advance.

For example, given the file

shell> cat etc/file1
10.1.3.50
10.1.3.51
10.1.3.52

the playbook

shell> cat test-007.yml
- hosts: localhost
gather_facts: false
become: true
tasks:
- find:
path: etc
file_type: file
recurse: true
register: result
- replace:
path: "{{ item }}"
regexp: "10.1.3.51"
replace: "10.2.3.54"
loop: "{{ result.files|
map(attribute='path')|
list }}"

gives

shell> ansible-playbook test-007.yml -CD
