Note
This plugin is part of the community.general collection.
To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.general.
To use it in a playbook, specify: community.general.maven_artifact.
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| artifact_id string / required | The maven artifactId coordinate | |
| attributes string added in 2.3 of ansible.builtin | The attributes the resulting file or directory should have. To get supported flags look at the man page for chattr on the target system. This string should contain the attributes in the same order as the one displayed by lsattr. The = operator is assumed as default, otherwise + or - operators need to be included in the string.aliases: attr | |
| classifier string | The maven classifier coordinate | |
| dest string / required | The path where the artifact should be written to If file mode or ownerships are specified and destination path already exists, they affect the downloaded file | |
| extension string | Default: "jar" | The maven type/extension coordinate |
| force_basic_auth boolean added in 0.2.0 of community.general |
| httplib2, the library used by the uri module only sends authentication information when a webservice responds to an initial request with a 401 status. Since some basic auth services do not properly send a 401, logins will fail. This option forces the sending of the Basic authentication header upon initial request. |
| group string | Name of the group that should own the file/directory, as would be fed to chown. | |
| group_id string / required | The Maven groupId coordinate | |
| headers dictionary | Add custom HTTP headers to a request in hash/dict format. | |
| keep_name boolean |
| If yes, the downloaded artifact's name is preserved, i.e the version number remains part of it.This option only has effect when dest is a directory and version is set to latest or version_by_spec is defined. |
| mode raw | The permissions the resulting file or directory should have. For those used to /usr/bin/chmod remember that modes are actually octal numbers. You must either add a leading zero so that Ansible's YAML parser knows it is an octal number (like 0644 or 01777) or quote it (like '644' or '1777') so Ansible receives a string and can do its own conversion from string into number.Giving Ansible a number without following one of these rules will end up with a decimal number which will have unexpected results. As of Ansible 1.8, the mode may be specified as a symbolic mode (for example, u+rwx or u=rw,g=r,o=r). | |
| owner string | Name of the user that should own the file/directory, as would be fed to chown. | |
| password string | The password to authenticate with to the Maven Repository. Use AWS secret access key of the repository is hosted on S3 aliases: aws_secret_access_key | |
| repository_url string | Default: "https://repo1.maven.org/maven2" | The URL of the Maven Repository to download from. Use s3://... if the repository is hosted on Amazon S3, added in version 2.2. Use file://... if the repository is local, added in version 2.6 |
| selevel string | The level part of the SELinux file context. This is the MLS/MCS attribute, sometimes known as the range.When set to _default, it will use the level portion of the policy if available. | |
| serole string | The role part of the SELinux file context. When set to _default, it will use the role portion of the policy if available. | |
| setype string | The type part of the SELinux file context. When set to _default, it will use the type portion of the policy if available. | |
| seuser string | The user part of the SELinux file context. By default it uses the system policy, where applicable.When set to _default, it will use the user portion of the policy if available. | |
| state string |
| The desired state of the artifact |
| timeout string | Default: 10 | Specifies a timeout in seconds for the connection attempt |
| unsafe_writes boolean added in 2.2 of ansible.builtin |
| Influence when to use atomic operation to prevent data corruption or inconsistent reads from the target file. By default this module uses atomic operations to prevent data corruption or inconsistent reads from the target files, but sometimes systems are configured or just broken in ways that prevent this. One example is docker mounted files, which cannot be updated atomically from inside the container and can only be written in an unsafe manner. This option allows Ansible to fall back to unsafe methods of updating files when atomic operations fail (however, it doesn't force Ansible to perform unsafe writes). IMPORTANT! Unsafe writes are subject to race conditions and can lead to data corruption. |
| username string | The username to authenticate as to the Maven Repository. Use AWS secret key of the repository is hosted on S3 aliases: aws_secret_key | |
| validate_certs boolean |
| If no, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only be set to no when no other option exists. |
| verify_checksum string |
| If never, the md5 checksum will never be downloaded and verified.If download, the md5 checksum will be downloaded and verified only after artifact download. This is the default.If change, the md5 checksum will be downloaded and verified if the destination already exist, to verify if they are identical. This was the behaviour before 2.6. Since it downloads the md5 before (maybe) downloading the artifact, and since some repository software, when acting as a proxy/cache, return a 404 error if the artifact has not been cached yet, it may fail unexpectedly. If you still need it, you should consider using always instead - if you deal with a checksum, it is better to use it to verify integrity after download.always combines download and change. |
| version string | The maven version coordinate Mutually exclusive with version_by_spec. | |
| version_by_spec string added in 0.2.0 of community.general | The maven dependency version ranges. See supported version ranges on https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MAVENOLD/Dependency+Mediation+and+Conflict+Resolution
The range type "(,1.0],[1.2,)" and "(,1.1),(1.1,)" is not supported. Mutually exclusive with version. |
