Possible for ansible.log to have a DATE or TIMESTAMP in the name of the log?

[johhue]

Hello, is it possible to add a date or date/time extension to ansible.log files created?

In ansible.cfg, I would like the log files to be created as ansible.log.20160906

I would think based on the other config options I see in ansible.cfg I could make use of the date/time variables, specify the file like so: 

log_path=/app/ansible/logs/ansible.log-%Y%m%d

However, the log gets created as ansible.log-%Y%m%d

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

John

You could write a wrapper script that sets $ANSIBLE_LOG_PATH, and then
runs Ansible.

(I agree that this seems like a nice feature to have in general though.)
