DOCUMENTATION = '''
---
module: shell
short_description: Execute commands in nodes.
description:
     - The C(shell) module takes the command name followed by a list of space-delimited arguments.
       It is almost exactly like the M(command) module but runs
       the command through a shell (C(/bin/sh)) on the remote node.
     - For Windows targets, use the M(win_shell) module instead.
version_added: "0.2"
options:
  free_form:
    description:
      - The shell module takes a free form command to run, as a string.  There's not an actual
        option named "free form".  See the examples!
    required: true
  creates:
    description:
      - a filename, when it already exists, this step will B(not) be run.
  removes:
    description:
      - a filename, when it does not exist, this step will B(not) be run.
    version_added: "0.8"
  chdir:
    description:
      - cd into this directory before running the command
    version_added: "0.6"
  executable:
    description:
      - change the shell used to execute the command. Should be an absolute path to the executable.
    version_added: "0.9"
  warn:
    description:
      - if command warnings are on in ansible.cfg, do not warn about this particular line if set to no/false.
    type: bool
    default: 'yes'
    version_added: "1.8"
  stdin:
    version_added: "2.4"
    description:
      - Set the stdin of the command directly to the specified value.
notes:
  -  If you want to execute a command securely and predictably, it may be
     better to use the M(command) module instead. Best practices when writing
     playbooks will follow the trend of using M(command) unless the C(shell)
     module is explicitly required. When running ad-hoc commands, use your best
     judgement.
  -  Check mode is supported when passing C(creates) or C(removes). If running
     in check mode and either of these are specified, the module will check for
     the existence of the file and report the correct changed status. If these
     are not supplied, the task will be skipped.
  -  To sanitize any variables passed to the shell module, you should use
     "{{ var | quote }}" instead of just "{{ var }}" to make sure they don't include evil things like semicolons.
  - An alternative to using inline shell scripts with this module is to use
    the M(script) module possibly together with the M(template) module.
  - For rebooting systems, use the M(reboot) or M(win_reboot) module.
seealso:
- module: command
- module: raw
- module: script
    use the M(script) module instead.

EXAMPLES = '''
- name: Execute the command in remote shell; stdout goes to the specified file on the remote.
  shell: somescript.sh >> somelog.txt

- name: Change the working directory to somedir/ before executing the command.
  shell: somescript.sh >> somelog.txt
  args:
    chdir: somedir/

# You can also use the 'args' form to provide the options.
- name: This command will change the working directory to somedir/ and will only run when somedir/somelog.txt doesn't exist.
  shell: somescript.sh >> somelog.txt
  args:
    chdir: somedir/
    creates: somelog.txt

- name: Run a command that uses non-posix shell-isms (in this example /bin/sh doesn't handle redirection and wildcards together but bash does)
  shell: cat < /tmp/*txt
  args:
    executable: /bin/bash

- name: Run a command using a templated variable (always use quote filter to avoid injection)
  shell: cat {{ myfile|quote }}

# You can use shell to run other executables to perform actions inline
- name: Run expect to wait for a successful PXE boot via out-of-band CIMC
  shell: |
    set timeout 300
    spawn ssh admin@{{ cimc_host }}

    expect "password:"
    send "{{ cimc_password }}\\n"

    expect "\\n{{ cimc_name }}"
    send "connect host\\n"

    expect "pxeboot.n12"
    send "\\n"

    exit 0
  args:
    executable: /usr/bin/expect
  delegate_to: localhost

# Disabling warnings
- name: Using curl to connect to a host via SOCKS proxy (unsupported in uri). Ordinarily this would throw a warning.
  shell: curl --socks5 localhost:9000 http://www.ansible.com
  args:
    warn: False
