command-instead-of-module

This rule will recommend you to use a specific ansible module instead for tasks that are better served by a module, as these are more reliable, provide better messaging and usually have additional features like the ability to retry.

In the unlikely case that the rule triggers false positives, you can disable it by adding a comment like # noqa: command-instead-of-module to the same line.

You can check the source of the rule for all the known commands that trigger the rule and their allowed list arguments of exceptions and raise a pull request to improve them.

Problematic Code

---
- name: Update apt cache
  hosts: all
  tasks:
    - name: Run apt-get update
      ansible.builtin.command: apt-get update # <-- better to use ansible.builtin.apt module

Correct Code

---
- name: Update apt cache
  hosts: all
  tasks:
    - name: Run apt-get update
      ansible.builtin.apt:
        update_cache: true
