Ansible copy directory content on remote host-CodePudding

I wanna copy directory content from /etc/yum.repos.d to /etc/yum.repos.d.org I tried like this

  - name: copy yum.repos.d content
    synchronize:
      src: /etc/yum.repos.d
      dest: /etc/yum.repos.d.org

but when I run this yml

[root@master yum.repos.d.org]# ls -al
drwxr-xr-x   3 root root   25 11월 29 18:00 .
drwxr-xr-x. 77 root root 8192 11월 29 18:00 ..
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  324 11월 29 16:16 yum.repos.d

There's another directory. I just want the contents of /etc/yum.repos.d in /etc/yum.repos.d.org

CodePudding user response：

Use the Ansible copy module, with the remote_src option.

- name: copy yum.repos.d content
  copy:
    src: /etc/yum.repos.d/
    dest: /etc/yum.repos.d.org
    remote_src: yes

CodePudding user response：

Actually the synchronize module takes a parameter called dirs, which is used to:

Transfer directories without recursing.

This will allow you to copy the contents of yum.repos.d directly to yum.repos.d.org instead of the directory itself.

    - name: copy yum.repos.d content
      synchronize:
        src: /etc/yum.repos.d/
        dest: /etc/yum.repos.d.org
        dirs: true
