Ansible When statement

Question

Hello,

With win_stat i can check if a path exists and then set a condition after

       win_stat:
              path: <some path>
       register: A

       win_robocopy:
             src: <>
             dest: <>
              flags: <>
        when: A.stat.exist

My question is, how to achieve this with win find?

       win_find:
             path: <>
         register: A

         debug:
             msg= all files are found
         when: (?)

Any help would be appreciated

So basically you want to print "all finds are found" when all files are found in the path mentioned?

You can try the following workaround. So basically you're getting the number of files in the directory and printing if that number is non zero. I'm not sure if it'll work.

- name: Recursively find /tmp files
    win_find:
           paths: /tmp
           recurse: yes
      register: A.examined

  debug:
      msg = All files found
  when: register > 0
