  win_iis_website:
    name: "Acme"
    state: started
    port: 80
    ip: 127.0.0.1
    hostname: acme.local
    application_pool: "acme"
    physical_path: c:\sites\acme
    parameters: logfile.directory:c:\sites\logs
  register: website

# Remove Default Web Site and the standard port 80 binding
- name: Remove Default Web Site
  win_iis_website:
    name: "Default Web Site"
    state: absent

# Some commandline examples:

# This return information about an existing host
# $ ansible -i vagrant-inventory -m win_iis_website -a "name='Default Web Site'" window
# host | success >> {
#     "changed": false,
#     "site": {
#         "ApplicationPool": "DefaultAppPool",
#         "Bindings": [
#             "*:80:"
#         ],
#         "ID": 1,
#         "Name": "Default Web Site",
#         "PhysicalPath": "%SystemDrive%\\inetpub\\wwwroot",
#         "State": "Stopped"
#     }
# }

# This stops an existing site.
# $ ansible -i hosts -m win_iis_website -a "name='Default Web Site' state=stopped" host

# This creates a new site.
# $ ansible -i hosts -m win_iis_website -a "name=acme physical_path=c:\\sites\\acme" host

# Change logfile.
# $ ansible -i hosts -m win_iis_website -a "name=acme physical_path=c:\\sites\\acme" host
