- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe

# Install and start the foo service with a key-value pair argument
# This will yield the following command: C:\windows\foo.exe bar "true"
- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe
    app_parameters:
      bar: true

# Install and start the foo service with a key-value pair argument, where the argument needs to start with a dash
# This will yield the following command: C:\windows\\foo.exe -bar "true"
- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe
    app_parameters:
      "-bar": true

# Install and start the foo service with a single parameter
# This will yield the following command: C:\windows\\foo.exe bar
- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe
    app_parameters:
      _: bar

# Install and start the foo service with a mix of single params, and key value pairs
# This will yield the following command: C:\windows\\foo.exe bar -file output.bat
- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe
    app_parameters:
      _: bar
      "-file": "output.bat"

# Use the single line parameters option to specify an arbitrary string of parameters
# for the service executable
- name: Make sure the Consul service runs
  win_nssm:
    name: consul
    application: C:\consul\consul.exe
    app_parameters_free_form: agent -config-dir=C:\consul\config
    stdout_file: C:\consul\log.txt
    stderr_file: C:\consul\error.txt

# Install and start the foo service, redirecting stdout and stderr to the same file
- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe
    stdout_file: C:\windows\foo.log
    stderr_file: C:\windows\foo.log

# Install and start the foo service, but wait for dependencies tcpip and adf
- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe
    dependencies: 'adf,tcpip'

# Install and start the foo service with dedicated user
- win_nssm:
    name: foo
    application: C:\windows\foo.exe
    user: foouser
    password: secret

# Install the foo service but do not start it automatically
