“isfifo”: false,
“isgid”: false,
“islnk”: false,
“isreg”: true,

The task that i use is :

  • name: Liste les groupes dans mes_groupes
    find:
    paths: /{{ role_path }}/files/groups/
    register: mes_groupes
    delegate_to: localhost

  • debug:
    var: mes_groupes

Why mes_groupes no content only the file who is in my path ?

In a string instead of in a file:

raub@desktop:~/dev/ansible$ cat roles/test/tasks/string.yml
