Notes
-----
.. note::
- The ``acl`` module requires that ACLs are enabled on the target filesystem and that the ``setfacl`` and ``getfacl`` binaries are installed.
- As of Ansible 2.0, this module only supports Linux distributions.
- As of Ansible 2.3, the *name* option has been changed to *path* as default, but *name* still works as well.
Examples
--------
.. code-block:: yaml
- name: Grant user Joe read access to a file
ansible.posix.acl:
path: /etc/foo.conf
entity: joe
etype: user
permissions: r
state: present
- name: Removes the ACL for Joe on a specific file
ansible.posix.acl:
path: /etc/foo.conf
entity: joe
etype: user
state: absent
- name: Sets default ACL for joe on /etc/foo.d/
ansible.posix.acl:
path: /etc/foo.d/
entity: joe
etype: user
permissions: rw
default: true
state: present
- name: Same as previous but using entry shorthand
ansible.posix.acl:
path: /etc/foo.d/
entry: default:user:joe:rw-
state: present
- name: Obtain the ACL for a specific file
ansible.posix.acl:
path: /etc/foo.conf
register: acl_info
Return Values
-------------
Common return values are documented `here <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/common_return_values.html#common-return-values>`_, the following are the fields unique to this module:
