|
|
- This lookup checks a list of files and paths and returns the full path to the first combination found.
|
|
|
|
|
- As all lookups, when fed relative paths it will try use the current task's location first and go up the chain
|
|
|
|
|
to the containing role/play/include/etc's location.
|
|
|
|
|
to the containing locations of role / play / include and so on.
|
|
|
|
|
- The list of files has precedence over the paths searched.
|
|
|
|
|
i.e, A task in a role has a 'file1' in the play's relative path, this will be used, 'file2' in role's relative path will not.
|
|
|
|
|
For example, A task in a role has a 'file1' in the play's relative path, this will be used, 'file2' in role's relative path will not.
|
|
|
|
|
- Either a list of files C(_terms) or a key `files` with a list of files is required for this plugin to operate.
|
|
|
|
|
notes:
|
|
|
|
|
- This lookup can be used in 'dual mode', either passing a list of file names or a dictionary that has C(files) and C(paths).
