I've been using the stdlib::file_line resource happily for a bit now, but then ran into a problem
I have a class, which can be simplified as follows class prop(propval) { file_line {conffile: line=>"PROPERTY=propval" } } However, I'm attempting to plan for the future, and it sounds rather useful to have the ability to remove the property completely. The app I'm configuring this for, expects to see NO "PROPERTY=" value, if you want to disable this feature. Unfortunately, I dont see a way to do it, without some ugly exec() calls. In other words, what I'd LIKE to be able to do, is someting like file_line{ conffile: line=>"PROPERTY=", match=> "^PROPERTY=.*", ensure=>absent, } and then have file_line remove a line, if present, that matches "PROPERTY=". After all, it can do replace "^PROPERTY=" with "PROPERTY=foo" So surely there's some way to do replace "^PROPERTY=" with "[empty]" ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
