module: template
version_added: historical
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."
options:
src:
description:
- Path of a Jinja2 formatted template on the Ansible controller. This can be a relative or absolute path.
required: true
dest:
description:
- Location to render the template to on the remote machine.
required: true
backup:
description:
- Create a backup file including the timestamp information so you can get
the original file back if you somehow clobbered it incorrectly.
required: false
choices: [ "yes", "no" ]
default: "no"
force:
description:
- the default is C(yes), which will replace the remote file when contents
are different than the source. If C(no), the file will only be transferred
if the destination does not exist.
required: false
choices: [ "yes", "no" ]
default: "yes"
notes:
- "Since Ansible version 0.9, templates are loaded with C(trim_blocks=True)."
