Transfer execute and delete script python via playbook

[Vincent Descargues]

Hello, 

I would like to know how it is possible with a command to be able to both transfer execute and delete a python script via a playbook. Currently I do it in 3 lines: 1) Transfer 2) Execute 3) Delete.

I could see on different forum that we could use the function "script"


My current playbook :

hosts: host

- name: download python script
copy:
src: /etc/ansible/xxxx/python.py
dest: /etc/sssd/
- name: execute python script
command: python /etc/sssd/python.py
- name: delete python script
command: rm /etc/sssd/python.py

In fact, I would like to be able to transfer the python script, execute it and delete it because I do not want to store it on the machine where it runs.


(example command "script" find on internet) I tried it but it does not work :

- hosts: my-servers sudo: true tasks: - script: /home/stuart/scripts/setup.sh --creates /home/stuart/installed-git.txt

Thanks a lot for answer.

Try to put the steps in shell script..like copy the python script to the server ..change the permission of the script..execute it..once the exit status s 0..delete the script..you can use 2 modules..copy  and shell

Hi Vaibhav,

I use already this 2 modules, but i just want use only one module 'maybe "script module"' like that https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.5/modules/script_module.html

I think the only native module of ansible to do this is "script"
Like this maybe :

- script: /etc/ansible/python.py --some-arguments 1234
  args:
    creates: /the/created/python.py

Or 

- script: /etc/ansible/python.py --some-arguments 1234
  args:
    removes: /etc/ansible/python.py

but there is no execution in this order finally I think ....

Hi Vince,

script will delete your script on it's own after executing it, similar to other modules.

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/0461620b2ddc7e8c0bf00bf8b7b95edd3a4c109c/lib/ansible/plugins/action/script.py#L144

You can do this using the ansible script module

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.5/modules/script_module.html
