How to create a directory using Ansible

Question

How do you create a directory www at /srv on a Debian-based system using an Ansible playbook?

Answer 1

- file:
    path: /etc/some_directory
    state: directory
    mode: 0755
    owner: someone
    group: somegroup

That's the way you can actually also set the permissions, the owner and the group. The last three parameters are not obligatory.
