Inputs

    
src:
    aliases:
    - source
    description:
    - Source file path. Use with state C(present) to upload a blob.

blob:
    aliases:
    - blob_name
    description:
    - Name of a blob object within the container.

dest:
    aliases:
    - destination
    description:
    - Destination file path. Use with state C(present) to download a blob.

tags:
    description:
    - Dictionary of string:string pairs to assign as metadata to the object.
    - Metadata tags on the object will be updated with any provided values.
    - To remove tags set append_tags option to false.
    type: dict

force:
    default: false
    description:
    - Overwrite existing blob or file when uploading or downloading. Force deletion of
      a container that contains blobs.
    type: bool

state:
    choices:
    - absent
    - present
    default: present
    description:
    - State of a container or blob.
    - Use state C(absent) with a container value only to delete a container. Include a
      blob value to remove a specific blob. A container will not be deleted, if it contains
      blobs. Use the I(force) option to override, deleting the container and all associated
      blobs.
    - Use state C(present) to create or update a container and upload or download a blob.
      If the container does not exist, it will be created. If it exists, it will be updated
      with configuration options. Provide a blob name and either src or dest to upload
      or download. Provide a src path to upload and a dest path to download. If a blob
      (uploading) or a file (downloading) already exists, it will not be overwritten unless
      I(force=true).
