- "If supplied, restrict the additional facts collected to the given subset.
Possible values: C(all), C(all_ipv4_addresses), C(all_ipv6_addresses), C(apparmor), C(architecture),

Can specify a list of values to specify a larger subset.
Values can also be used with an initial C(!) to specify that
that specific subset should not be collected. For instance:
C(!hardware,!network,!virtual,!ohai,!facter). If C(!all) is specified
then only the min subset is collected. To avoid collecting even the
min subset, specify C(!all,!min). To collect only specific facts,
use C(!all,!min), and specify the particular fact subsets.
Use the filter parameter if you do not want to display some collected
facts."
type: list
elements: str
default: "all"
gather_timeout:
version_added: "2.2"
description:
- Set the default timeout in seconds for individual fact gathering.
type: int
default: 10
filter:
version_added: "1.1"
description:
- If supplied, only return facts that match one of the shell-style
(fnmatch) pattern. An empty list basically means 'no filter'.
As of Ansible 2.11, the type has changed from string to list
and the default has became an empty list. A simple string is
still accepted and works as a single pattern. The behaviour
prior to Ansible 2.11 remains.
type: list
elements: str
default: []
fact_path:
version_added: "1.3"
description:
- Path used for local ansible facts (C(*.fact)) - files in this dir
will be run (if executable) and their results be added to C(ansible_local) facts.
If a file is not executable it is read instead.
File/results format can be JSON or INI-format. The default C(fact_path) can be
specified in C(ansible.cfg) for when setup is automatically called as part of
C(gather_facts).
NOTE - For windows clients, the results will be added to a variable named after the
local file (without extension suffix), rather than C(ansible_local).
- Since Ansible 2.1, Windows hosts can use C(fact_path). Make sure that this path
exists on the target host. Files in this path MUST be PowerShell scripts C(.ps1)
which outputs an object. This object will be formatted by Ansible as json so the
script should be outputting a raw hashtable, array, or other primitive object.
type: path
default: /etc/ansible/facts.d
description:
- This module is automatically called by playbooks to gather useful
variables about remote hosts that can be used in playbooks. It can also be
executed directly by C(/usr/bin/ansible) to check what variables are
available to a host. Ansible provides many I(facts) about the system,
automatically.
- This module is also supported for Windows targets.
extends_documentation_fragment:
- action_common_attributes
- action_common_attributes.facts
attributes:
check_mode:
support: full
diff_mode:
support: none
facts:
support: full
platform:
platforms: posix, windows
notes:
- More ansible facts will be added with successive releases. If I(facter) or
I(ohai) are installed, variables from these programs will also be snapshotted
into the JSON file for usage in templating. These variables are prefixed
with C(facter_) and C(ohai_) so it's easy to tell their source. All variables are
bubbled up to the caller. Using the ansible facts and choosing to not
install I(facter) and I(ohai) means you can avoid Ruby-dependencies on your
remote systems. (See also M(community.general.facter) and M(community.general.ohai).)
- The filter option filters only the first level subkey below ansible_facts.
- If the target host is Windows, you will not currently have the ability to use
C(filter) as this is provided by a simpler implementation of the module.
- This module should be run with elevated privileges on BSD systems to gather facts like ansible_product_version.
- For more information about delegated facts,
please check U(https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_delegation.html#delegating-facts).
