I am trying to rename folder that is unpacked. So I can only get file name
accurately with grep (or some sort of regex expression)
via ansible, the following command fails with the error message: stderr:
mv: cannot stat `/var/www/`ls /var/www/ | grep client`': No such file or
directory
command mv "/var/www/`ls /var/www/ | grep client`" "/var/www/gd_new"
however, exact command works just fine when executed on server
I try to use mv "var/www/client*" "/var/www/gd_new", with xargs with
pipe... all end up with similar error...
any guidance would be appreciated.
Substitute "command" by "shell". The shell module allows to do piping,
backticks, globs, etc.. The command module does not do any of those things
and can only be used for a single static command line.
