I've been using Ansible to fetch files from Windows nodes to a Linux node for some time with good results. I would now like the nodes to remove fetched files once they have uploaded successfully.
However, since I'm fetching from lots of endpoints in various states, some files occasionally fail to transfer - and I'm having trouble using Ansible to skip those files, and those files only.
Here's what I have so far:
- name: Find .something files
ansible.windows.win_find:
paths: 'C:\Some\Path'
patterns: [ '*.something' ]
recurse: yes
age_stamp: ctime
age: -1w
register: found_files
- name: Create destination directory
file:
path: "/some/path/{{inventory_hostname}}/"
state: directory
delegate_to: localhost
- name: Fetch .something files
fetch:
src: "{{ item.path }}"
dest: "/some/path/{{inventory_hostname}}/"
flat: yes
validate_checksum: no
with_items: "{{ found_files.files }}"
register: item.sync_result
ignore_errors: yes
msg: "Would remove {{ item.path }}"
when: sync_result is succeeded
with_items: "{{ found_files.files }}"
The problem is, the sync_result
variable seems to apply to each node instead of each file - that is, if one file has failed to transfer, no files will be deleted.
I've tried various loops and lists and could not get it to work.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
In a nutshell:
- name: Find .something files
ansible.windows.win_find:
paths: 'C:\Some\Path'
patterns: [ '*.something' ]
recurse: yes
age_stamp: ctime
age: -1w
register: find_something
- name: Create destination directory
file:
path: "/some/path/{{ inventory_hostname }}/"
state: directory
delegate_to: localhost
- name: Fetch .something files
fetch:
src: "{{ item.path }}"
dest: "/some/path/{{ inventory_hostname }}/"
flat: yes
validate_checksum: no
loop: "{{ find_something.files }}"
register: fetch_sync
ignore_errors: yes
- name: Delete successfully fetched files
file:
path: "{{ item.file }}"
state: absent
loop: "{{ fetch_sync.results | select('succeeded') }}"
# If you are using ansible < 2.10 you need to cast to list i.e.
# loop: "{{ fetch_sync.results | select('succeeded') | list }}"
