# Ansible 删除多个文件或目录

**删除一个文件**

```yaml
- name: Ansible delete file example
  file:
    path: /etc/delete.conf
    state: absent
```

> 注意：当你知道一个文件名的时候，可以这样删除这个文件。

**删除多个文件**

```yaml
- name: Ansible delete multiple file example
  file:
    path: "{{ item }}"
    state: absent
  with_items:
    - hello1.txt
    - hello2.txt
    - hello3.txt
```

> 注意：当你知道多个文件名的时候，可以这样删除这些文件。

**删除一个目录或文件夹**

```yaml
- name: Ansible delete directory example
  file:
    path: removed_files
    state: absent
```

> 上面这个例子讲删除指定的目录，如果这个目录不存在，不会抛出错误。

**使用shell 脚本删除多个文件**

```yaml
- name: Ansible delete file wildcard example
  shell: rm -rf hello*.txt
```

> 上面这个例子讲删除指定的目录，如果这个目录不存在，不会抛出错误。

**使用find和file模块结合linux shell模糊搜索删除文件**

```yaml
- hosts: all
  tasks:
  - name: Ansible delete file glob
    find:
      paths: /etc/Ansible
      patterns: *.txt
    register: files_to_delete

  - name: Ansible remove file glob
    file:
      path: "{{ item.path }}"
      state: absent
    with_items: "{{ files_to_delete.files }}"
```

**使用find和file模块结合python的正则表达式删除文件**

```yaml
- hosts: all
  tasks:
  - name: Ansible delete file wildcard
    find:
      paths: /etc/wild_card/example
      patterns: "^he.*.txt"
      use:regex: true
    register: wildcard_files_to_delete

  - name: Ansible remove file wildcard
    file:
      path: "{{ item.path }}"
      state: absent
    with_items: "{{ wildcard_files_to_delete.files }}"
```

**移除晚于某个日期的文件**

```yaml
- hosts: all
  tasks:
  - name: Ansible delete files older than 5 days example
    find:
      paths: /Users/dnpmacpro/Documents/Ansible
      age: 5d
    register: files_to_delete

  - name: Ansible remove files older than a date example
    file:
      path: "{{ item.path }}"
      state: absent
    with_items: "{{ files_to_delete.files }}"
```
