Copy multiple files in playbooks

[satheesh kumar]

I want to copy multiple files in playbooks, Currently i'm doing one by one

      - name: Copy tomcat to target server
        copy: src=files/apache-tomcat-7.0.61.tar.gz dest=/tmp/apache-tomcat-7.0.61.tar.gz owner=root group=azureuser mode=0644
        when: ansible_os_family == 'Suse' or ansible_os_family == 'RedHat'

      - name: Copy file1 to target server
        copy: src=files/file1 dest=/opt/file1 owner=azureuser group=root mode=0644
        when: ansible_os_family == 'Suse' or ansible_os_family == 'RedHat'

Is there a way to copy it recursively for many files with different destinations similar to below

 - name: Install necessary package group
   yum: name="{{ item }}" state=present
   with_items:
     - "libselinux-python"
     - "git"
     - "ksh"
     - "httpd"
     - "java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel"
   when: ansible_os_family == 'RedHat'

many ways, you could do something like:

copy: src={{item}} dest={{item|replace('files/','')}}
with_fileglob: files/*/*

or using the pipe lookup for more complex finds.
