Hi all, I am wondering if there is some clean way to handle files supplied by the user.
I have two use cases: - a role that ask for ssl certificates[1]. Currently I ask the user to add them in their root `files/` folder under specific names, and I use copy + `with_item`. It works pretty well. Is this the "good way" of doing it? [1] https://github.com/Mayeu/ansible-playbook-rabbitmq#using-it - a role that wait for a list of file. Currently I ask the user to set a variable with the list of filenames, put the files in the root `files/` folder of their playbooks, and I use copy with `with_item`. I would like to make something like "copy *.rb". But `with_fileglob` only use the role `files` as root. And setting a relative path like `../../files/` to get to the user ones is not a clean solution to me. What do you think about those two? What are the rationnal to limit `with_fileglob` to the role `files/` folder, and not making the same logic used by the copy module for example (checking that the path exist either in the role, or the root playbook)? -- Mayeu a.k.a Matthieu http://6x9.fr
