The complexity is a consequence of you requirement to
"rehash the directory if the counts aren't equal". You
can't compare *counts* without at least two *finds*. The
elegant way is a single *find* and iteration of all
certificates
- find:
paths: /tmp/ansible/certs
patterns: '*.crt'
register: out_crt
- file:
state: link
src: /tmp/ansible/certs/{{ item }}.crt
dest: /tmp/ansible/certs/{{ item }}.0
loop: "{{ out_crt.files |
json_query('[].path') |
map('basename') |
map('splitext') |
map('first') }}"
This is, however, less efficient. The options are limited
because *file* doesn't work with wildcards. If you don't
care about idempotency and the changed/failed status
*shell* also does the job
- shell: |
cd /tmp/ansible/certs &&
for i in *.crt; do ln -s $i ${i%.crt}.0; done
failed_when: false
changed_when: false
You can write advanced scripts or custom filters that would
do what you want.
