.. _fetch:
fetch
`````
This module works like 'copy', but in reverse. It is used for fetching files
from remote machines and storing them locally in a file tree, organized by hostname.
+--------------------+----------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| parameter | required | default | comments |
+====================+==========+=========+============================================================================+
| src | yes | | The file on the remote system to fetch. This needs to be a file, not |
| | | | a directory. Recursive fetching may be supported in a later release. |
+--------------------+----------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| dest | yes | | A directory to save the file into. For example, if the 'dest' directory |
| | | | is '/foo', a src file named '/tmp/bar' on host 'host.example.com', would |
| | | | be saved into '/foo/host.example.com/tmp/bar' |
+--------------------+----------+---------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Example::
fetch src=/var/log/messages dest=/home/logtree
