Hi Wei,
If you are referring to this code, then it is deleting the destination
folder too.
- hosts: all
tasks:
- name: Ansible delete files examples
find:
paths: /home/mdtutorials2/findmodule/examples
patterns: "*.log"
age: "100d"
recurse: yes
register: files_to_delete
- name: Ansible delete file glob
file:
path: "{{ item.path }}"
state: absent
with_items: "{{ files_to_delete.files }}"
Best Regards,
Reneesh K
