The `file` module allows changing ownership and permissions on files. These
same options can be passed directly to the `copy` or `template` modules as well::
ansible webservers -m file -a "dest=/srv/foo/a.txt mode=600"
ansible webservers -m file -a "dest=/srv/foo/b.txt mode=600 owner=mdehaan group=mdehaan"
The `file` module can also create directories, similar to `mkdir -p`::
ansible webservers -m file -a "dest=/path/to/c mode=644 owner=mdehaan group=mdehaan state=directory"
As well as delete directories (recursively) and delete files::
ansible webservers -m file -a "dest=/path/to/c state=absent"
The mode, owner, and group flags can also be used on the copy or template lines.
