module: script
version_added: "0.9"
short_description: Runs a local script on a remote node after transferring it
description:
     - "The M(script) module takes the script name followed by a list of
       space-delimited arguments. "
     - "The local script at path will be transferred to the remote node and then executed. "
     - "The given script will be processed through the shell environment on the remote node. "
     - "This module does not require python on the remote system, much like
       the M(raw) module. "
options:
  free_form:
    description:
      - path to the local script file followed by optional arguments.
    required: true
    default: null
    aliases: []

      - a filename, when it already exists, this step will B(not) be run.

notes:
  - It is usually preferable to write Ansible modules than pushing scripts. Convert your script to an Ansible module for bonus points!
  - The ssh connection plugin will force psuedo-tty allocation via -tt when scripts are executed. psuedo-ttys do not have a stderr channel and all stderr is sent to stdout. If you depend on separated stdout and stderr result keys, please switch to a copy+command set of tasks instead of using script.
