module: slurp
version_added: historical
short_description: Slurps a file from remote nodes
description:
     - This module works like M(ansible.builtin.fetch). It is used for fetching a base64-
       encoded blob containing the data in a remote file.
     - This module is also supported for Windows targets.
options:
  src:
    description:
      - The file on the remote system to fetch. This I(must) be a file, not a directory.
    type: path
    required: true
    aliases: [ path ]
extends_documentation_fragment:
    - action_common_attributes
attributes:
  check_mode:
    support: full
  diff_mode:
    support: none
  platform:
    platforms: posix, windows
notes:
   - This module returns an 'in memory' base64 encoded version of the file, take
     into account that this will require at least twice the RAM as the original file size.
