module: win_template
|
|
|
|
|
version_added: "1.9.2"
|
|
|
|
|
short_description: Templates a file out to a remote server.
|

description:

|
|
|
|
- Templates are processed by the Jinja2 templating language
|
|
|
|
|
(U(http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/)) - documentation on the template
|
|
|
|
|
formatting can be found in the Template Designer Documentation
|
|
|
|
|
(U(http://jinja.pocoo.org/docs/templates/)).
|
|
|
|
|
- "Six additional variables can be used in templates: C(ansible_managed)
|
|
|
|
|
(configurable via the C(defaults) section of C(ansible.cfg)) contains a string
|
|
|
|
|
which can be used to describe the template name, host, modification time of the
|
|
|
|
|
template file and the owner uid, C(template_host) contains the node name of
|
|
|
|
|
the template's machine, C(template_uid) the owner, C(template_path) the
|
|
|
|
|
absolute path of the template, C(template_fullpath) is the absolute path of the
|
|
|
|
|
template, and C(template_run_date) is the date that the template was rendered. Note that including
|
|
|
|
|
a string that uses a date in the template will result in the template being marked 'changed'
|
|
|
|
|
each time."

|

|
required: true
|
|
|
|
|
notes:
|
|
|
|
|
- "templates are loaded with C(trim_blocks=True)."
|
|
|
|
|
- By default, windows line endings are not created in the generated file.
|
|
|
|
|
- "In order to ensure windows line endings are in the generated file, add the following header
|
|
|
|
|
as the first line of your template: #jinja2: newline_sequence:'\\\\r\\\\n' and ensure each line
|
|
|
|
|
of the template ends with \\\\r\\\\n"
|
|
|
|
|
- Beware fetching files from windows machines when creating templates
|
|
|
|
|
because certain tools, such as Powershell ISE, and regedit's export facility
|
|
|
|
|
add a Byte Order Mark as the first character of the file, which can cause tracebacks.
|
|
|
|
|
- Use "od -cx" to examine your templates for Byte Order Marks.
