Inputs

    
src:
    description:
    - Path to a file on the managed node.
    - Mutually exclusive with O(content). One of O(content) and O(src) is required.
    type: str

dest:
    description:
    - Path to a file inside the Multipass virtual machine.
    - Must be an absolute path.
    required: true
    type: str

name:
    description:
    - The name of the virtual machine to copy files to.
    required: true
    type: str

content:
    description:
    - The file's content.
    - If you plan to provide binary data, provide it pre-encoded to base64, and set O(content_is_b64=true).
    - Mutually exclusive with O(src). One of O(content) and O(src) is required.
    type: str

content_is_b64:
    default: false
    description:
    - If set to V(true), the content in O(content) is assumed to be Base64 encoded and
      will be decoded before being used.
    - To use binary O(content), it is better to keep it Base64 encoded and let it be decoded
      by this option. Otherwise you risk the data to be interpreted as UTF-8 and corrupted.
