copy files from remote to local

[Rahul Kolan]

Team,

   Can someone provide me solution to copy all source /tmp/*.exe files to local Ansible machine.

I tried below solution but its not working.

- name: example copying file with owner and permissions
      fetch:
        src: /tmp/*.exe
        dest: /tmp/test/
        flat: yes
        owner: root
        group: root
        mode: 0777

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

Rahul Kolan

Please describe what do you mean by not working. Do you get any error message? Describe the expected and actual results.

Based on v2.8, I don’t think you can wildcard filenames with fetch and it doesn’t seem to have owner, group or mode parameters (like copy) either. I think this discussion about a “wrapper” script or using the alternative synchronise module may help with your particular query though?:

Hi ,

  Thanks, following syntax worked for me.

 - name: use find to get the files list which you want to copy/fetch
      find:
        paths: /tmp/
        patterns: ".*exe"
        use_regex: True
      register: file_2_fetch

    - name: use fetch to get the files
      fetch:
        src: "{{ item.path }}"
        dest: /tmp/
        flat: yes
      with_items: "{{ file_2_fetch.files }}"

 

 Thanks & Regards,

Rahul Kolan
