It calls Python's "glob" library. options: _terms: description: path(s) of files to read required: True notes: - Patterns are only supported on files, not directory/paths. - See R(Ansible task paths,playbook_task_paths) to understand how file lookup occurs with paths. - Matching is against local system files on the Ansible controller. To iterate a list of files on a remote node, use the M(ansible.builtin.find) module. - Returns a string list of paths joined by commas, or an empty list if no files match. For a 'true list' pass O(ignore:wantlist=True) to the lookup. seealso: - ref: playbook_task_paths description: Search paths used for relative files.
