Generate severals tasks

ansible-aisnippet can generate severals tasks from a file. The file is a yaml file which contains a list of tasks and blocks

Ex:

- task: Install package htop, nginx and net-tools with generic module
- task: Copy file from local file /tmp/toto to remote /tmp/titi set mode 0666 owner bob group www
  register: test
- name: A block
  when: test.rc == 0
  block:
    - task: wait for port 6300 on localhost timeout 25
  rescue:
    - task: Execute command /opt/application/start.sh creates /var/run/test.lock
- task: Download file from https://tmp.io/test/ set mode 0640 and force true

This file produces this result :
