How to use --tree in ansible playbook

[Stefan Mijatovic]

Hello,

I am discovering ansible and i was wondering how to specify a command in my playbook to use the "--tree" command that is normally used like this :

ansible all -m setup -u root --tree /tmp/ansible/general

Translating this into a playbook would look like :

---
- hosts: all
  remote_user: root
  tasks:
  - name: Gather our facts
    action: setup


But in the playbook i can't see how to specify the --tree arguent since if i put arguments to the 'action' it will correspond as the module arguments.

Thanks for your help !

I don't think many people are using the "--tree" command and with ansible-playbook it would be very very hard to keep the task order and understand this with multiple playbook runs.

Good options for you include Ansible Tower (built in logging, and RESTful access to all of the history) as well as writing a callback plugin - though you'd have to find a filesystem structure that worked for you.
