attributes - added in 2.3 |

keep_name boolean added in 2.4 |

If This option only has effect when |
mode - |
Mode the file or directory should be. 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 | |
owner - |
Name of the user that should own the file/directory, as would be fed to chown. | |
password - |
The password to authenticate with to the Maven Repository. Use AWS secret access key of the repository is hosted on S3

The desired state of the artifact |
timeout - added in 2.3 |
Default: 10 |
Specifies a timeout in seconds for the connection attempt |
unsafe_writes boolean added in 2.2 |
|
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 - |
The username to authenticate as to the Maven Repository. Use AWS secret key of the repository is hosted on S3

validate_certs boolean added in 1.9.3 |
|
If |
verify_checksum - added in 2.6 |
