I'm trying to copy a bunch of files, recurisvely, from my Ansible
control machine to the inventory target. The 'synchronize' module (in
1.5) sounds like it does just what I need:
# Synchronization of src on the control machine to dest on the remote hosts
synchronize: src=some/relative/path dest=/some/absolute/path
When I use it, however, it tries to copy from the target machine to the target
machine.
- synchronize: src=/Users/chris/Projects/smd/ dest=/tmp/
msg: rsync: change_dir "/Users/chris/Projects/smd" failed: No such file or
directory (2)
/Users/chris/Projects/smd does exist on my controller, but not my target; it
appears it's treating both src and dest on the target.
If I try and make this a local_action, it tries to copy from and *to* my
ansible controller machine
- local_action: synchronize src=/Users/chris/.MacOSX dest=/tmp
Does copy my local machine's homedir config info to my local machine's /tmp/ dir
I've read a bunch of the threads on this but it's not clear how to invoke this common
operation, abut more importantly, the doc example that state "src on control machine
to dest on remote hosts" is not what this module is actually doing.
I've thrown some 'pdb' into the synchronize.py module and see that (without
local_action) it does create an rsync command, copy a file with that command to
the remote, then run it there, so it makes sense that it would be doing src and
dest on the remote -- contrary to the doc example.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
