backup location in template module

[Vikas Kumar]

Dear All,

I have below line from my ansible playbook which uses template module.

 - template: src=nginx_conf.j2 dest=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf backup=yes

This works great, but create a backup in the same directory (/etc/nginx/ in this case). Is there a way out to somehow create the backup on a different location, say /etc/nginx/backups/  directory.

Regards,

Vikas

not yet, a couple of features we have been considering a)configurable
'backup depo' on target machine (/var/cache/ansible/backups) and/or
backup up on 'master'.

Hi, 

Any update on this?

Is there a workaround to achieve this? Maybe with a callback plugin?

Thanks!

Best regards, 

Joel.
