您甚至可以扩展文件模块，甚至可以通过它设置所有者、组和权限。(参考:Ansible文件文档)

- name: Creates directory
  file:
    path: /src/www
    state: directory
    owner: www-data
    group: www-data
    mode: 0775

甚至，你可以递归地创建目录:

- name: Creates directory
  file:
    path: /src/www
    state: directory
    owner: www-data
    group: www-data
    mode: 0775
    recurse: yes

这样，如果这两个目录不存在，它将创建它们。

目录只能使用文件模块创建，因为目录只是一个文件。

# create a directory if it doesn't exist
- file:
    path: /etc/some_directory
    state: directory
    mode: 0755
    owner: foo
    group: foo

我看到很多Playbooks的例子，我想提到Adhoc命令的例子。

$ansible -i inventory -m file -a "path=/tmp/ directory state=directory(我们可以用touch代替directory来创建文件)

—name:创建目录 ansible.builtin.file: 路径:/etc/some_directory 状态:目录 模式:“0755”

在本例中，您可以使用"file"模块，其中有许多参数可以传递给新创建的目录，如所有者、组、位置、模式等.....

关于文件模块的详细说明请参考本文档…

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/file_module.html#file-module

记住这个模块不仅仅是用来创建目录的!!

使用文件模块创建一个目录，并使用命令“ansible-doc file”获取文件模块的详细信息

这里有一个选项“state”解释:

If directory, all immediate subdirectories will be created if they do not exist, since 1.7 they will be created with the supplied permissions. If file, the file will NOT be created if it does not exist, see the [copy] or [template] module if you want that behavior. If link, the symbolic link will be created or changed. Use hard for hardlinks. If absent, directories will be recursively deleted, and files or symlinks will be unlinked. Note that file will not fail if the path does not exist as the state did not change. If touch (new in 1.4), an empty file will be created if the path does not exist, while an existing file or directory will receive updated file access and modification times (similar to the way touch works from the command line).
