* Introduce new 'filetree' lookup plugin
The new "filetree" lookup plugin makes it possible to recurse over a tree of files within the task loop. This makes it possible to e.g. template a complete tree of files to a target system with little effort while retaining permissions and ownership.
The module supports directories, files and symlinks.
The item dictionary consists of:
- src
- root
- path
- mode
- state
- owner
- group
- seuser
- serole
- setype
- selevel
- uid
- gid
- size
- mtime
- ctime
EXAMPLES:
Here is an example of how we use with_filetree within a role:
```yaml
- name: Create directories
file:
path: /web/{{ item.path }}
state: directory
mode: '{{ item.mode }}'
owner: '{{ item.owner }}'
group: '{{ item.group }}'
force: yes
with_filetree: web/
when: item.state == 'directory'
- name: Template complete tree
file:
src: '{{ item.src }}'
dest: /web/{{ item.path }}
state: 'link'
mode: '{{ item.mode }}'
owner: '{{ item.owner }}'
group: '{{ item.group }}'
with_filetree: web/
when: item.state == 'link'
- name: Template complete tree
template:
src: '{{ item.src }}'
dest: /web/{{ item.path }}
mode: '{{ item.mode }}'
owner: '{{ item.owner }}'
group: '{{ item.group }}'
force: yes
with_filetree: web/
when: item.state == 'file'
```
SPECIAL USE:
The following properties also have its special use:
- root: Makes it possible to filter by original location
- path: Is the relative path to root
- uid, gid: Makes it possible to force-create by exact id, rather than by name
- size, mtime, ctime: Makes it possible to filter out files by size, mtime or ctime
TODO:
- Add snippets to documentation
* Small fixes for Python 3
* Return the portion of the file’s mode that can be set by os.chmod()
And remove the exists=True, which is redundant.
* Use lstat() instead of stat() since we support symlinks
* Avoid a few possible stat() calls
* Bring in line with v1.9 and hybrid plugin
* Remove glob module since we no longer use it
* Included suggestions from @RussellLuo
- Two blank lines will be better. See PEP 8
- I think if props is not None is more conventional 😄
* Support failed pwd/grp lookups
* Implement first-found functionality in the path-order
