Forum: CFEngine Help Subject: Re: Trying to use regex to edit multiple files but CFengine 3.2.1 only edits one file. Why? Author: sauer Link to topic: https://cfengine.com/forum/read.php?3,25435,25454#msg-25454
Not only is the use of touch => true non-convergant, but I can't get effectively the same thing to work with or without touch (on community 3.2.1), and with the regex in either the middle or the end of the file. Maybe cf-agent doesn't like me as much as it likes Mark. :) I'm thinking this is a bug (perhaps a new one, since it seemingly worked before)... root@host:/tmp # touch test/{a,b,c,d}.cf root@host:/tmp # cat test/{a,b,c,d}.cf root@host:/tmp # ls test/{a,b,c,d}.cf test/a.cf test/b.cf test/c.cf test/d.cf root@host:/tmp # cf-agent -b a -IKf ./test.cf >> Using command line specified bundlesequence -> Edited file /tmp/test/c.cf root@host:/tmp # cat test.cf #!/var/cfengine/bin/cf-agent -b a -K -f bundle agent a { files: "/tmp/test/.*" edit_line => myedit; } bundle edit_line myedit { insert_lines: "kaboom!"; } root@host:/tmp # cf-agent -b astudent03.classroom -IKf ./test.cf >> Using command line specified bundlesequence root@host:/tmp # vim test.cf root@host:/tmp # cat test.cf #!/var/cfengine/bin/cf-agent -b a -K -f bundle agent a { files: "/tmp/test/.*" edit_line => myedit, touch => "true"; } bundle edit_line myedit { insert_lines: "kaboom!"; } root@host:/tmp # cf-agent -b a -IKf ./test.cf >> Using command line specified bundlesequence -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/c.cf -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/c.cf -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/b.cf -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/b.cf -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/a.cf -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/a.cf -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/c.cf.cf-before-edit -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/c.cf.cf-before-edit -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/d.cf -> Touched (updated time stamps) /tmp/test/d.cf root@host:/tmp # cat test/{a,b,c,d}.cf kaboom! root@host:/tmp # wc -l /tmp/test/{a,b,c,d}.cf 0 /tmp/test/a.cf 0 /tmp/test/b.cf 1 /tmp/test/c.cf 0 /tmp/test/d.cf 1 total _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
