Hello!
I would like to exclude a folder from being archived into a tar.gz file.
However, I've tried multiple options but I haven't had any luck. Any time I
run the archive module, the images directory keeps on getting backed up
even though it should be excluded.
- name: Archiving the Contents of all the websites
archive:
path: '{{ item.path }}'
dest: '{{ item.dest }}'
owner: centos
group: centos
mode: 0740
format: gz
with_items:
- { path: '{{ websites_path }}/{{ site01 }}', dest: '{{
remote_backup_path }}/{{ date_time }}/{{ site01 }}/{{ site01 }}.tar.gz',
exclude_path:'/var/www/html/abcd.com/test/images' }
- { path: '{{ websites_path }}/{{ site02 }}', dest: '{{
remote_backup_path }}/{{ date_time }}/{{ site02 }}/{{ site02 }}.tar.gz' }
I've tried this as well:
- name: Archiving the Contents of all the websites
archive:
path: '{{ item.path }}'
dest: '{{ item.dest }}'
exclude_path:
- /var/www/html/abcd.com/test/images
owner: centos
group: centos
mode: 0740
format: gz
with_items:
- { path: '{{ websites_path }}/{{ site01 }}', dest: '{{
remote_backup_path }}/{{ date_time }}/{{ site01 }}/{{ site01 }}.tar.gz', }
- { path: '{{ websites_path }}/{{ site02 }}', dest: '{{
remote_backup_path }}/{{ date_time }}/{{ site02 }}/{{ site02 }}.tar.gz' }
Would someone be able to advise me on how I can exclude a particular
directory from being archived?
Regards
JS
