Hi,
While I was playing with parsestringarray and file edition, I came
across an odd behaviour in file editing, where line were not added in
the expected order.
I was expecting to have this ocntent for the file /tmp/keysfile :
key3=value3
key2=value2
key1=value1
but I got :
key3=value3
key2=value2
key4=value4
key1=value1
with the following promise.
What am I missing ?
Tested with Cfengine 3.1.5b3 and 3.1.4 with readstringarray
Regards

Promise file
body common control {
bundlesequence => { "parse_string" };
}
bundle agent parse_string {
vars:
"table" string =>
"key1:value1
key2:value2
key3:value3
key4:value4",
comment => "Define my key:values";
"dim" int => parsestringarray(
"keys",
"$(table)",
"\s*#[^\n]*",
":",
"1000",
"200000"
),
comment => "Extracting the data from the variable";
files:
"/tmp/keysfile"
create => "true",
edit_line => add_key_value("parse_string.keys"),
comment => "Editing the file";
}
# Edit the file, adding the key=value from the parsed variable
# [0] : key
# [1] : value
bundle edit_line add_key_value(my_array) {
vars:
"index" slist => getindices("$(my_array)");
insert_lines:
"$($(my_array)[$(index)][0])=$($(my_array)[$(index)][1])";
}
